We headed to the 12 Apostles for dawn. The cloud prevented the
actual dawn light, but the new morning light was lovely.
We headed back to Port Campbell to pick up "The
Grownups" (Pete's name for our two senior ladies) who have chosen not come
out for the dawn shoots, and head out for breakfast. We have found this one
little place that makes great hot breakfasts and brings them out fast. There's
8 of us having a hot cooked breakfast and we are all served inside 10 mins.
I'll try to remember the name of the place tomorrow.
From breakfast we are on the road to Sentinel Rock.
Close by is the first of 3 cliff top trails to view the Baker's
Oven.
We spent a bit of time at the Bakers Oven before heading to Australia .
This rock is pretty spectacular this time of year and I really
wanted to try my hand at time lapse photography. I set up my main camera on
tripod with the shutter being automatically tripped by remote every 4 seconds.
After 2 and half hours to capture the late afternoon light and the last light
of the day when Australia
is at its best, I had 16GB of images on the card, some 1183 jpeg files to make
a movie from. And with the wonderful help from Dave, he showed me how to put
one together. I owe a lot to him, he's my tech guru!!
While the 5D MkII was on tripod, I used the 50D to take my stills
of this area. We really were blessed with amazing skies, fantastic light and
really enjoyed the company I was with.
This area of the Great
Ocean Road around Port Campbell is the most
spectacular with light at this time of year.
I'm in the throes of uploading "Australia Light" onto
YouTube for your viewing pleasure, and cause I'm pretty damn proud of my first
effort of producing a time lapse. I've got plans for another one at a location
in the rainforest in a few days time with a special song that has a lot of
meaning to me.
