Woody – done! Barring any shenanigans from the IT propellerheads here you should have them in a jiffy!

You can e-mail the pics to me if you like, Miranda – woody dot manncaruso at gmail dot com. I don’t have any server space to share them, but you can feel warm and fuzzy that your pics will make my soul-destroying desk jockeying a little brighter.

Vic: Thanks! It’s the camera and location, not me!

Lynn: The wildlife seems to be thriving out there right now. Loads of roos – including cute joeys – and birds, lizards, emus. Apparently there are also koalas to be seen, and I heard the ranger mention the platypus’ (platypie?!) are unusually active. Have fun!

very encouraging to see Miranda, thanks very much!
beautiful shots, good to see some wild life too. Might take my Norwegian rellies out there in a couple of weeks.

Email them to JB – his inbox can handle it.

ROFL. Better yet, email him the video of the trip up there.

Someone else needs to say it : Great photos Miranda!

You can upload them to something like flickr and post the links

Poo. Complicated.

🙂

johnboy – how can I post high-res images? They’re 1.6MB jpegs x 4.

I would but we’ve had so much content on this morning I’m trying to avoid overload.

… it’s my opinion that another gentle reminder at the top of the page might be in order.

All depends on how well our loyal readers get out there with our rate card making the case to potential advertisers.

1280 x 1024?

I guess it will feature Kaleen in a few weeks … or perhaps Kiama?

I got slack, but it is starting again in the next couple of days.

what happened to the photograph your suburb concept JB?

Any chance of a link to some bigger versions?
Sure… 1024×768, or higher?

It is amazing what a few drops of rain can achieve.

Woody Mann-Caruso12:39 pm 12 Mar 07

don’t think I’ve got that setting

Oh, I do after all – it’s under My Colours. Cool!

Any chance of a link to some bigger versions? These would make fantastic wallpaper.

Beaut pix, Miranda.

Hrm – I’ve got the Ixus 60, but I don’t think I’ve got that setting. Haven’t had much luck using HDR and tone mapping to get that glorious saturation and contrast, either! Wanna swap? 😉

Nope. Just my little Canon Ixus 50 set to ‘positive film’. I resample in photoshop and apply a sharpen filter. That’s all. The Ixus’ seem to have excellent colour saturation and contrast algorithms…

Nice – are these HDR, Miranda?
