Yesterday afternoon I hit the road with the mission of searching for populous areas of canola and a nice part of Victoria with some wind farms. I usually try and get out every spring to shoot canola fields at various areas around Melbourne and Victoria. Up until now I’ve shot on the way down to Geelong. Below is a shot I took last year near the town of Little River near the You Yangs just after sunrise.
Phillip Island is a place for me that brings back fond memories of my childhood. Growing up our extended family had a place at Ventnor and summers were spent down at the beach house walking the dogs, sleeping in, heading to the beach at YCW and watching one day cricket on the telebox. These were just a few memories from this place, and not to mention some of the stunning natural landscapes on such a relatively small island. More on this later!
I get asked quite often especially on social media platforms on all kinds of different advice ranging from how I get certain effects to what I do at the post processing stage after the shoot has concluded – usually performed late at night after a long drive home from somewhere dreary eyed after belting out tunes in the car stereo.
