Photo Walk Description

Overview…

Trentham is a small country township in central Victoria, nestled at the very top of the Great Dividing Range mid-way between Woodend and Daylesford, approximately one hour from Melbourne. With its charming historic buildings, award-winning eateries and beautiful lake and gardens, it’s an ideal rural location to visit for the Seventh Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. If you enjoy making photographs, with any type of camera from an iPhone to a DSLR, you’re welcome to come along and join in the fun on Saturday, 11 October 2014.

We will start our walk at the Trentham Neighbourhood Centre, shortly after 11.00 a.m. From there we’ll wander down quiet town streets, past the old railway station, around the lake and up and down the main street before finishing up in the gardens of The Cosmopolitan Hotel. There will be plenty of opportunities for streetscapes, landscapes, architecture, nature and abstract photography. After the walk concludes at about 1.00 p.m. we’ll meet up to socialise, enjoy lunch and refreshments and share our images.

ABC Open Photographic Workshop

Last weekend, Heather, Noel and myself attended a free outdoor ABC Open photography workshop set in the beautiful surrounds of Mount Buangor State Park.

Ferntree Falls was the spectacular venue for a photography workshop conducted by ABC Open Producer Larissa Romensky. The day consisted of an information session on landscape photography, a photographic challenge and a guided tour of the Ferntree Falls by Parks Victoria Ranger Tony Veit.

Never give up on an idea who knows the same light can reveal different things

Shameless self promotion

The last few weeks myself and the Pinoy Photographers of Victoria, collaborated on a massive shoot, at Talbot in the central goldfield region,  there were 20 photographers and their families, 12 models and hair and makeup people, designer clothes and stylists, several sites around Talbot were used, as well as in and around  Carisbrook. It was a great 2 days, and as well as taking pictures the group contributed to the town's coffers, those guys could eat ... 13 large pizzas on saturday night alone. I would like to personally thank them all for a great time and great organisational skills.
This is a share of some my pics.

Bristol Hill Pioneer Memorial Tower

Central Victorian Photo Location

The Bristol Hill Pioneer Memorial Tower is the latest addition to our Central Victorian Photo Locations Map. It was built in 1933 during the Great Depression, largely of material from the old Maryborough Gaol. It offers great views of the town.

On the 24 and 25th of August 2013, I attended a workshop with John Fick, a very talented photographer based in Sydney, who travels the world taking portraits, shooting weddings, fashion and other commercial images. He was a very giving teacher and I learned alot, never assume you know it all, as some one will know more. I thought that I would share one of the images using his methods.
