The Country Fire Authority has chosen an image I shot a while ago to illustrate the dangers involved in letting trees grow near powerlines. Just a quick shot whist on assignment and a single frame HDR conversion. Photomatix normally does very odd things to power lines against a sky and this is no exception.
HD video up a tree
I have been working with Treelogic for quite a few years now producing images for their website and yearly printed calendar. Recently in an effort to raise awareness for their new service branded Logical Tree Management I shot a little HD video with the DSLR. It describes the process of getting up a tree and [...]
Churchyard in Tasmania revisited
HDR has taken me on a journey and now I have been messing around with some textured layering in Photoshop.

Heritage trees in Melbourne
We shot a number of trees that are on the list as significant trees in Melbourne. These are protected trees and of importance for rarity, age and historical reference. I will post others and give correct the names as I get the selections from the Arborist at Tree Logic. Have a look in the shop [...]
Apple iPhone as a Webcam
This little application FTP Cam was a little awkward at first but I got it to work so that now as I take an image in the iPhone it is uploaded to a specified location. Below is a current image. I am likely to shoot a new image every few hours so check back here [...]
