Short DOF Planet
An experiment with trying a Little Planet using a very short depth of field, so that only the dead centre is in hard focus. Like a lot of artistic experiments, it’s a bit of a failure, that teaches towards success. What it demonstrates to me is that it’s the crispness of everything at the “horizon” of the image that gives Little Planet projections their special appeal.
Post-Storm
Didn’t really get much of a feeling for the ferocity of the storm that hit last night, the tail end of Tropical Cyclone Debbie, but going for a wander down to the river this afternoon, and clearly, we copped a fair wallop.

Cat Cuddle Cafe
Shooting at a Brisbane cat adoption organisation. Lesson learned – use a higher minimum shutter speed for auto-iso, or use shutter priority, and trust that the indoor conditions will stop the lens up to 2.8, which is the depth of field I was using for a lot of shots.
Cats can give some pretty arresting portraits, when they’re not attempting to crash their faces into the lens.
