A lovely day at Taronga Zoo yesterday, getting into the photography flow in preparation for photographing polar bears. I'm happy with how the photos came out. Hopefully, I'm ready to get that polar bear shot ! Wherever she is, dear Sue is smiling.

Topaz Photo AI
This amazing software allows one to sharpen images, remove noise and increase the resolution of an image. It has proven invaluable, especially on my trips to Antarctica, The Arctic and Iceland to really make my images pop.

Vivid 2022
It was great to enjoy the Vivid Festival in Sydney again this year after a Covid induced two year break. No more need for tripods, the amazing i phone camera takes great shots hand held!
A lovely drink and dinner afterwards at The Bavarian Cafe

Nattai National Park outlook walk
A gentle walk in the Nattai National Park with Gavin, Srini and Rajesh for an awesome view at the end. Just what I needed. There was a slight detour with a bit of exposure to get the pulse going.
