Weekly Photo Share

I realize that it has been more than a week since my last photo share, but I assure you I have been taking HEAPS of photos lately! We had two assignments due in one week so this past weekend was a very busy one.

We are kind of wrapping up some of our technical lessons (i.e. how to use this camera) and we are moving more into communication and meaning. It's hard stuff but what I consider to be the main attraction of the class.

Here are a few shots from around Melbourne (and around my apartment!).

There's some really beautiful light in Melbourne at this time of year at dusk and dawn. It's a very soft light and the sunsets create some very blush pinks in the sky.



This is the view from my apartment window. See the pink spot in the sky? So subtle and beautiful - I just love it.



St. Kilda pier near sunset - I was lucky to capture this light as the rain soon moved in!




Capturing the motion of the ocean with a slow shutter speed.



I was intrigued by this bird who was just staring at the water. As I moved in for a closer shot, he dove into the water and surfaced with a little fishy! So cool to watch!



I absolutely LOVE cherry blossoms! I have happy memories from when my mom and I visited DC one spring when I was kid and the entire place was PINK!



These light bulbs have amazing light qualities - the centers change color depending on how the light hits them.

 Hope you have enjoyed those. Plenty more to learn so more pics to come!!
