Moonstar
I took this picture on a beach, on the east coast of Australia, at night. It's a fifteen second exposure, making the moon look unnaturally bright. I really like the focus on the sand. The light on the water also adds a lot to the picture. Because it's a fifteen second exposure, all the waves have churned together to become a still, flat sea.

Something Different
This a an electric-acoustic guitar. I'm trying at the moment to expand my skills, and get better at taking pictures other than just nature close up. So, this was a bit of an experiment, which I thought worked out quite well.
Ixoras
These flowers are called Ixoras. I wish more humans had names like that.
I really like the focus here, it's crucial to the beauty of the image. I like the way you can't at all tell what the background is, because it's so completely blurred. And here I'm trying to take a step back, and take the picture a bit further away from the object than I usually do.

More Gerberas
This I really like because the focus is just on the tips of the petals of the gerbera that sits in the foreground. I also think having another gerbera in the background gives the picture more beauty.
You Don't Need It All
This is a Gerbera. Something I like about this picture is that it doesn't actually show the whole flower, and it's not all in perfect focus. But where it is in focus, it looks almost perfect, pristine.
Apple Art
The focus isn't quite perfect on this, and wish that the lighting could have allowed for the red of the apple to be a bit more...rich, and solid. The reflection of light on the surface of the apple is unfortunate. The background isn't exactly fitting. But all round a nice picture. Taken on a Sony A550.
Three Bucks
This is a thirty second exposure I took, using a Sony A550. I particularly like the focus on the two dollar coin, and the way it kind of glows. And, yes, I actually got it balancing on top of the fifty cent piece.
