The 12 Apostles in Autumn :)

[s0ulofsin]

This one's taken in autumn. (Great Ocean Road, Victoria Australia) It's a tad overexposed on the right side but I think it still looks pretty fine to me. Check out the one taken in spring. [link]
All comments appreciated!

O psst...gimme some credit here will ya guys? LOL

I prefer this shot to the Spring one; it's a lot more dramatic even though the top right is overexposed...

I'd be very happy with it if it were mine!

 

[s0ulofsin]

Wow hey really? I actually prefer this one cos there's more impact. The spring one's a tad dull. It's a lil overexposed but nevertheless, it's still my fav!

despite the over exposure, you still manage to produce a very unique photo. good job!

Actually on both shots there are vignetting on the top left, bottom left, and bottom right corners, strange that there are no noticable vignetting on the top right...

See the darker corners comparing to the brighter center portion? This effect is call vignetting. It is usually caused by the lens barrel blocking lights off, and sometimes poor optics. It will also occurs on some lenses when thick filter or teleconveter (front type like the Oly B300) is mounted in front of the lens. In your case, since you mentioned that you took it with a point and shoot camera, i believe it's caused by the optics/lens, and you can't really avoid it short of changing to a better camera.

hi, i have seen this scene in your photo before. I saw one taken by national geographic, taken from around the same place as you have taken yours. maybe you would like to check it out for yourself, national geographic photograph field guide, can borrow from the library.

maybe a polarizing filter can help to make this picture more appealing. a bit overexposed.

This is the most popular spot for photo taking cos it provides a very good view of the apostles. They've constructed walkway bridges along the area where ya can view other kinda rock formations...wld prolly post 'em up...

National Geographic takes awesome piccies..I've always wanted to work for it or somethin...heh...;p

By the way, is polarizing filter a technical term for cammies? I know nuts abt technical shit. :|

Gawd...I'm tired...

I can't wait to take the 12 Apostles in summer and winter.
