A quick mobile snap for today using androids Paper Cam. A combination of a long week, cold and wet weather eroded my cooking motivation and brought me here to Burger Fuel…
Weather looks poor again for the weekend but I will see what I can find to shoot tomorrow!
More a hut in the park rather than hut in the woods, but an interesting discovery none the less whilst having a short walk after work. Armed with the Olympus E-500, my battery was almost flat, so I rushed to get some shots off before it died. Shooting at dusk under trees at iso100 I did get some motion blur, but quite liked the final result once converted to B&W.
I am assuming the hut was some form of student project or fun game for kids/family rather than someone actually using it – it would not offer much shelter.
The sunset this evening was one of the more amazing of recent. Unfortunately I was stuck in traffic for the best of it. Racing (or driving as prompt as possible) once out of the traffic, finding a park and jogging down the track to an open area, I missed all but the last of the sun as it dropped into the horizon. With tide out and still, I did manage to catch it reflecting the last of the days sun as it slowly curved down and away out to sea.

Stuck in the house sick today, I hunted through some old images shot at the Sydney Zoo a few years ago. I had a wide variety of head shots of various animals, including todays peacock.
One of the more well known colourful birds, I have always found it funny how many animals have the male being bright and exuberant and the female otherwise plain. Of course the majority of examples of this are to show off and attract a mate.

Smurf Village? Unlikely, but a bumper mushroom/toadstool patch none the less.
