I was very saddened to hear on this evening's news of the passing of Judith Durham, a great singer who became famous as part of the group "The Seekers". Here's a link to one of their chart topping songs. This sunset photo was taken on our former rural property and the higher clouds are Lenticular clouds, formed in mountain wind waves.

Today I flickered past another photo community I once visited often, and realised I hadn't posted this image here. In 2013, with Jupiter high and bright, I wanted a photo of Jupiter with its moons. It was easier said than done! Although I could get Jupiter, in long telephoto the long exposures needed for the moons resulted in significant motion blur. The only alternative was a very high ISO (12800 @ 1/50) which left Jupiter just a bright white circle. So I did the "HDR thing" and substituted a correctly exposed Jupiter image. Best viewed on black.

When Ipernity member Herb Riddle recently posted a photo of a fog bow, it seemed I was one of the very few who had previously seen one. Herb asked if I had a photo from my sighting and this is it, taken on Kodachrome slide film at Macquarie Island (a very foggy place) in 1968. Maybe view large. Explored.

On a warm sunny day (about 28C) the sea fog suddenly rolled in and filled the bay - a most unusual event. HFF. Here's how to make the most of fog.

Early evening, and the waxing crescent moon and planets (Venus and Jupiter) made a pleasant conjunction as they set behind trees in the west. A musical link here.

After a hot day, it's great when a cool change rolls in. Sometimes, as here, it is accompanied by a roll cloud. Best on black.

Very nearly the same perspective as my previous landscape. What a difference between weather and seasons! Yes, we do sometimes have snow in Australia. :-) Best viewed on black. Happy fence Friday! Explored.

Taken on the southern tablelands of NSW, with a weather trough moving along the coast and beginning to come over the coastal ranges. HFF.
