Robert's Ramblings

This weekend we were privileged to share in the wedding of two of our very dear friends.

The location was kept secret and as late afternoon became evening we were whisked away on a chartered bus to enjoy a wonderful evening.
The McLaren Vale winery 'Maxwell Wines' turned out to be the secret venue and the evening was perfect in every way.

Thank you Christine and Wayne. Your ceremony was sincere and beautiful, the food and wine exquisite and the dancing fun.

The afternoon sunlight during late autumn and winter add a golden magic to images made with evening approaching.

This image shows that beautiful combination of yellow light from the setting sun and dark greys of the sky. This is another example of using a fish-eye lens for a landscape by placing the horizon right in the middle of the frame and then cropping a little of the bottom away to give some compositional interest.

Oh, and as I have mentioned before, I love jetties.
