Day 752, Western Afterglow

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" The glow in the western sky after sunset becomes a gorgeous backdrop for, well just about anything! I wonder if these fishers caught anything more than a gorgeous sunset. Either way they should be just as content. Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day 752, Western Afterglow’ 1/250s f/2.8 ISO1600 200mm

Day 751, The Pie Man’s Party Quaffer

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" This is about as far from a commercial wine shoot as you can get. The lighting’s crazy, the glasses are dirty and the background’s a mess. What else would expect. It’s a party after all! Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day 751, The Pie Man’s Party Quaffer’ 1/200s f/2.8 ISO1000 200mm

750, Capsule Colour

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" Bright, colourful and cheerful. The first morning light echoed by symbolic yellow suns. I wonder who, if any, will ride this ferris wheel today? Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day 750, Capsule Colour’ 1/800s f/2.8 ISO100 200mm

Day 749, Object of Desire

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" For us viewfinder, range finder and D/SLR image makers there is something odd about preview photography. Watch any of the aforementioned and they will seem as if camera and image creator are one. In this current popular style of photography the camera stands apart as if some magical object to be … Read more

Day 748, Nothing Else Matters

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" I do not know who’s backs I have captured in this image. I simply liked they way they strolled by as if nothing else in the world mattered at all. Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day 748, Nothing Else Matters’ 1/25s f/2.8 ISO1600 200mm

Day 747, Temptation Moonset

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" It’s not often I get to see a full moon setting on the ocean. Perhaps that has something to do with my normal daily routine but this morning I had a reason to be up really early. Just like the sun, when the moon is close to the horizon it appears … Read more

Day 746, Too Cool To Be Cool

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" This sweltering heatwave of multiple days over 40 degrees C has made the beach a very special place to cool off. The lapping calm water, and a searing breeze has made immersion in the cool salty brine more appealing than ever, unless you are too cool to get your hair wet … Read more

Day 745, Big Foot

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" Head down to the beach in the early hours before the heat cranks up and you will find strange footprints in the sand. As illusive as ‘Big Foot’ they will be gone again come the next high tide and leave us wondering if it they ever existed Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day … Read more

Day 744, Our Blemished Sun

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" With the 42 degC onslaught this week I thought I’d capture an image consistent with the ongoing heatwave. Sun-spots are obvious on the blemished surface as magnetic disturbances create cold spots and hence the dark visual blotches. The hardest part about capturing the solar disk is actually getting it in focus. … Read more

Day 743, Day’s End

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" It never fails to amaze my how popular Adelaide jetties are with all manner of activities taking place. During the day there are people out strolling, jetty jumpers risking life and limb and the odd casual fisher with a line or two cast to sea. Once the sun has set and … Read more
