Autumn Images Part 6

26 April 2012 | johnboy

Geoff from Lushpup has taken photographic fiddling to new dizzy heights with this beautiful shot which he explains thusly:

This is what happens when you put your fisheye on the ground looking up and carefully balance a polarising filter (that’s too small for the lens) on top.

Taken in the ANU down near Sullivan’s Creek. Astute viewers will score a bonus Telstrayama.

Keep them coming in to images@the-riotact.com sunset tonight could be a great time to get out there with the camera as the most intense colours have come on.

Here’s the slideshow of the series so far:

Why don’t you like bears?

Bears? Did I miss something?

Polarising filter. Doen’t that remove all artic dwelling bears from the shot?
Stupid *and* obscure, but my little hint that you should explain things for the uninitiated (or those of us who are too lazy to use Google.) It’s a great photo.

Ah … obtuse but legible. Thanks 🙂

Thank you for a title for a poetry collection: Obtuse, but legible. (-:

(Second attempt to post on allegedly clever phone…How that remark ages one.)
