Last week-end I completed another photo course at Bluedog photography at Mt. Tamborine. We had a bit of theory in the morning, mostly about using a grey card to set exposure and how to adjust white balance. In the afternoon, we trekked down the into the rain forest. I work on a couple of compositions, but most significantly, I was struck by how the rain forest almost forces one to look at the very small details; the ethereal waters against the solid rocks, the canopy that only allows a trickle of light pass and the fallen timbers that can fascinate for hours. This is a tremendous depart from the vistas of the Southwest USA, where one is drawn to the far horizons to capture the play of color and depth of perception.
