LIGHT ON THE LAND
I’ve been working on an exciting new project for the last few months……My first book! It’s called Light on the Land and has 100 of my favorite and most popular images. I’ve done the design and layout myself with the help of Renee Creative from the Sunshine Coast. I’ve gone down the self-publishing route so that I have complete control over the whole process, which also means it’s being printed 100% in Australia. It’s going to print this week and should be ready for sale towards the end of next month. With the book so close I’ve decided to offer my customers, blog and facebook followers a special pre-release offer. If you order your copy of Light on the Land for $46.00 inc delivery to anywhere in Australia before the 15th of July, I’m going to include a 30cm x 22cm signed, unframed fine art print valued at $125.00 at no extra cost (five prints to choose from). Please follow the link below to my website to get your copy and choose your free print. Thanks in advance for your support.

Outback Glow
This was a great spot that Tony showed us when we were in the Flinders Ranges. It was an interesting afternoon instead of looking for a location to shoot for sunset we ended up looking for somewhere that sold Coopers Tyres as one of ours got a huge slab of beer bottle in it! Of course nowhere had the size we needed so we did a quick repair and headed for this spot.
2011 Epson International Pano Awards
I’m happy with my results from this years Epson International Pano Awards, I entered 4 images and they all got awards, I won 1 silver and 3 bronze for the following images.
Wherever
Here’s another one from South Australia that caught my eye, captured just near Burra. Single image hand held with my 70-200 2.8L.
Hills of Gold
This is another image from our travels through the Flinders Ranges, South Australia. This spot was one of my favorites as it has 360 degree views of the Flinders great for sunrise, sunset, night shooting. Hills of gold is shot handheld with the 5d mk2 and a 70-200 2.8 lens. There’s a roo and joey in the image that is a bit hard to see in the web image but look’s great in print.
Starry Night
I captured this one one a trip through the Flinders Ranges earlier this year with good mates Tony Middleton and my dad Seb Messina.
