Testing New Flash (macro shots)

This started out like a normal night trip with photography friend Steven Nowakowski & I walking up a rainforest creek in search of frogs and other creatures. I was on a mission to test a new flash I had & also experiment with the new bracket arms mounted under my camera. Everything was going well until one of the flashes stopped working consistently. I also had a rather hard fall onto a granite boulder damaging my knee and also wacking the flash so hard it has not worked since. Anyway, here are a few shots from that excursion in the wet tropics of far north Queensland.

Frogs, butterflies and Spiders

I have been focussing on a few other things lately and become a bit slack with posting new images. Here are a few shots taken from a small rainforest creek in the area and around the backyard.

Bumpy Rocketfrog (Litoria inermis)

This blog is intended to showcase some of my latest photos taken on photographic expeditions. If you wish to see what I use some of the photos for please visit my online Gallery shop at Naturesface Art.

Waterfall Frogs and Green Eyes

Its been almost a month since I last photographed frogs so Steven and I decided to walk up a rainforest stream in search of anything resembling hoppers. It was a rather quiet night but we did manage to find a small population of green eye tree frogs on some mosss covered boulders. Later in the night at a different location we found some waterfall frogs doing what they do best, which is clinging to the wet slippery rocks while we ended up wet and sore trying to photograph them.
