Young Surfer

This young guy is off to the surf for some fun. I captured him with the Nikon, Nikkor, 300mm f/4D IF ED AF-S Lens this lens is excellent for this type of photography, as it is also very nice for nature photography.

For the above image I used a monopod to help prevent any camera movement

Casting The Net

This image has been captured at Bribie Island, Queensland using a Nikon D2H camera.

Nikon Nikkor 24-120mm f/4.0G ED VR Lens was used for this image. Where you are taking moving subjects such as this a zoom lens is very convenient.

Glasshouse Mountains

Here is a beautiful image of these mountains which do look like glasshouses. I love the sky in this image, to me it really adds to make the image something special.

The image has been captured with the Nikon D2H, an old camera as far as digital cameras go, but it is one of my favourites if you do not need high ISO, the Nikon 24-120mm zoom lens was also used.

The Nikon Nikkor 24-120mm f/4.0G ED VR Lens is a relatively new lens in the Nikon range but is great for convenience when travelling as it is quite compact and gives a nice zoom range.

Wetlands With a Long Telephoto Lens

Using a telephoto lens for a landscape can be a good way to get a different perspective in your images.

For the image above a 300 mm telephoto lens has been used with a Nikon D700 camera and a Nikon, Nikkor, 300mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S, Lens some times even a longer lens such as this one Nikon, Nikkor 500mm f/4G ED VR AF-S Lens  or a very long zoom Nikon, Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G ED VRII AF-S Lens, also can be very creative in landscapes.

Long lenses are a great tool  for both landscapes, nature, animal and bird photography.

The Kite Surfer

Kite surfers are quite easy to photograph with a long lens as the sport is becoming quite popular.

A Nikon D2H camera and Nikon, Nikkor, 300mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S, Lens has been used.

  • A Special Effects Mode to make creative images.
  • A full D-Movie mode with stereo sound recording via an optional Stereo Microphone ME-1.
