Speaking of, my little girl Milly wants to know if you've a slab-saw that can open a Thunder Egg for her. She looks quite sad in the photo that our 10" saw is a touch too small to cope with her new friend. The rock itself belong to Denis Braemer who has published some books on Agate Creek and SE Queensland Agate/Mineral Specimens. G'Day Brett, Judging by the way Milly is dressed looks like you have some colder weather going up your way as well. Sorry cant help with a slabbing saw, in the opal industry 8 inch is considered a big blade, somehow I reckon it's going to take more like a 36 inch to cut that bad boy. ;D

Thanks Muscles, Almost did a dive trip to Vanuatu a few years back, nice job on the panorama, looks like a great place to visit. 🙂

Coffee trees? reckon we're a little far south for them things. ;D
Muscles Hey DB (Sorry don't know you real name so hope DB is ok), Your EXIF ISO is 1250 - amazing color!! Did you do any post-processing to the pic?? Any HDR scripts??
Dry_bean AngerManagement wrote: ME... I can not use any thing that is not point and shoot :o :o But I know what I like and the contrast, the lighting in the sky and depth of colour as well as the subject. Just tickles my fancy. From the bush and thus the place has a tug on child hood memories and what my mum tried to do in the middle of the scrub and in places that would be considered almost desert. She came out from England at 18 just after the war, married my old man in central Qld and spent many years in some of the most barren and out of the way places. She was from an upper class family and looking back, it always amazed me how the two of them have lasted as long as they have... But I always recall snap dragons, pansies and other flowers she tried to grow as a reminder of home... So what are the flowers ? PS. Any chance of a better quality photo 😉 The flowers were Cineraria's and Pansies. Will try and grab something better when the lighting is right. 😉

DB is fine Muscles. ISO 1250 eh? goes to show what can happen when you rely on memory, must have been pushing pretty hard for light, I recall using a tripod. as a matter of interest how did you pick up the camera settings from the image I posted in this thread? From memory I adjusted levels and lighting on Nikon Capture NX. 🙂

madpierre Love the red dirt Borat, grew up with that when we used to head out to my uncles property outside of Bollon.
Koffee_Kosmo Woken up early this morning By the squawking of many many parrots So I got the camera out and went as close as I could without scaring them These are Corella's on my across the road neighbours trees, These birds started coming only a few years ago they come regularly now to feed They are feeding on a pine tree full of round, marble sized seeds Please forgive the camera as it was zooming at its limit KK
