When I was driving down to Albany another heavy front was passing over one side of the road and on the other the sun was still shinning and it gave the silos very surreal lighting, they look like tin soldiers guarding the fields.

Carnac Island is a nature reserve off Fremantle, it is between Garden and Rottnest Islands and is home to Australian Sea Lions and sea birds. Thanks to Mark for organising the trip and it was great to catch up with all the other photags.

Great images Peta, love the creativity with the sepia and the black and white

Thanks Charlene, I thought I would concentrate on the waves that nearly wiped out my camera. Never under estimate the power of the waves…

Great set Peta!

Thanks Mark, camera seems good but in for a check up and a metho bath…

I like em all Peta and I am guessing that one of them got the camera wet?
How is said camera by the way?

Thanks Stuart, was wishing for some clouds but just an inversion layer caused by a fire on the mainland, still it made for subtle lighting.

Nice pics, Peta. Esp like the tones in #2
Its a great time for driving in the country, the Canola is just beautiful and the countryside so green. I think this must be one of the best seasons in a very long time.

Thanks Mark, Yes it was such a contrast with a black sky and the yellow canola.

Hey Peta,
Great to meet you the other night, I had a good time how bout yourself? How did your camera go? Is it ok or are you off to the insurance office?
Your work is just stunning, I just love the shots that you’ve done of the canola, it’s gorgeous.

Thanks Shirley, yes it was a very black sky, just made it back to the car in time before the downpour.

A fabulous set, some of the best canola images I have seen. Works really well with the stormy sky

Thanks Katrina, yes I like the old farmhouse as well, it’s weathered walls hold many stories from the early days.

Fabulous shots Peta, I love the atmosphere in the first shot, but the second shot is my fave. For me it really captures the essence of the country. Really nice work.

Thanks Stuart, yes it is quite mesmerising.
September 7, 2011 - 1:24 am
Nice work, Peta. Particularly like the first one and the last one – the last one has that “somebody sprayed the field yellow” impact you only get with canola.
September 7, 2011 - 12:29 am
Thanks Ian, just managed to get a couple of shots before the downpour started…
September 7, 2011 - 12:25 am
I love the top one with the dark storm clouds – it is probably the best Canola image I have seen recently!

Thanks Merv, doesnt look like much rain is due this week, though it poured as I was travelling to Albany on the Friday, I think I drove through three fronts with lots of rain and hail…
September 6, 2011 - 12:52 pm
Yes it is excellent everywhere at the moment . One more rain is needed to really make it to full potential though. You have been about Peta and captured some good ones here.

Thanks Mark, it was one of those quick stop the car shots as the sun came out.

Sweet shots again there Peta…I particularly like the vineyard shot!
This photo was taken on a trip to Death Valley, it is an amazing place to visit and photo opportunities everywhere.
