These were taken on Koh Yao Noi, when a massive typhoon-like storm hit. The locals had never had a storm like this before, and were quite scared, needless to say, we were kinda shitting ourselves, but excited at the same time.
As the storm gathered strength:
All we could think was "the poor buggers in that long-tail!"
The islands you can see in the distance to the far right of the pic dot the entire horizon. As you can see, you can only see a couple of them.
We moved inside shortly after, when the wind picked up to about 110km per hour and we were blasted with sand.
One from a random night. I've just adjusted levels in photoshop.
Edit: Wheyy, a bit big, I'll resize it.

Sunrise at the most northern point of North Stradbroke Island. I took these photos last year; after seeing it firsthand for the first time the year before I decided I had to try to capture it. The images, though truly mystical, don't do it justice. If you're ever on straddie, watch the sunrise light up the beach.
I found they look cool in the magazines, but when you pick one up in a store they lose their appeal. A very heavy and bulky camera that requires a tripod to take advantage of the huge zoom, even with the Image Stabilisation. My Lumix FX7 in low light conditions was a bitch to hold still even when zoomed completely out. So I've come to appreciate that more often than not you want a very fast lens as oppose one with a massive zoom.
im slowly starting to take pictures at gigs, with a shitty digicam... no special SLR or anything, but this is the only shit that has really worked out for me...
I'm an amateur photographer (emphasis on amateur) and I don't have a hell of a lot to show, but here's one particular picture I did for a college project.
Admittedly it combines photoshop AND photography but they both have the word photo in so stfu
The emphasis was more on image manipulation than photography, but hell. I have a picture I love and if I can find it I'll post it, but til then...
I love photography. My inspiration to take photos comes from my love of the mountains. These are some of the best shots I've taken this season. All these photos are from Whistler (BC Canada), and the surrounding backcounty. Enjoy.
Wow! Thanks Kat! :D I love your city streets shot, i love those shots, long exposure, it reminds me of ghostly images.
Everyone's photos are really really awesome! :D:D
Eyes wide shut & Middle Finger: Your photos are in complete contrast to eachother (snow & desert ) but equally as beautiful! I can't wait to go to the snow, and EWS, your photos have definitely re-piqued my interest in Tunisia! :D
