After getting the green light to go out photographing on Sunday, (after cleaning, emptying the dishwasher and doing some loads of washing :) ) I went out on a circular run of Bathurst.
Shooting down Eleven Mile Drive, north of Bathurst and back through Eglington into town, I took a few shots along the way.
Though not considered the best conditions for shooting (overcast, windy, cold), I took the following shots along the way. One of the images was the old gates of Abercrombie House. I always wanted to get these in a grundy atmosphere, and the results are shown below, with some filter changes to get the best out of it.

I took two panoramas from Eleven Mile Drive. One with my 35mm lens and the other with my 70-300 mm lens. The second one exceeded 12 mb and 12 photos which exceeded the maximum for this site. It wasn't a bad result, with a few images needing tweaking, but this panorama shows a reasonable result. I found the old elm tree's on the right of the panorama to stand out due to the light and dark background.
This was a lucky shot. Standing at the Macquarie River, with no inspiration of the brown flooding water and leafless tree's, I saw these clouds light up the back of the tree's lining the river bank. I took a few of these, but this one I feel brings out the best in the staging cloud colours.
Always loved these old gates to Abercrombie House. This shot is the original image, which is ok, but with a little software filter manipulation, I produced the following results.
I like the colours produced in this one, looks more authentic to the age of the structure.
I saw this old house on the hill from the Ophid Road. The dark clouds in the background produced quite a contrast. However, after reading a few Steve Parish stories on black and white images (imaging the picture from colour to black/white) I saw this as a potentially good subject. After taking a few pictures, I returned the grey scale as shown below.
I certainly prefer this image to the below or upper ones....much more to what I was hoping to get with the stark dark image of the house and tree's.
