Cultured Arts…

by on Jul.11, 2010, under Life, Photography

My parents are staying with us for a few days before heading off on their annual trip north for a few months.

We spent the day in the city introducing some culture to my three girls.

We visited two exhibitions at the Art Gallery of NSW:

Then we made our way through the Domain to the State Library of New South Wales and took a look at two free photographic exhibitions there:

Of course I took my camera with me and captured a few images along the way 🙂

I wish I’d taken the following at an even higher shutter speed – unfortunately I was already at wide open with the lens I had and didn’t think to bump ISO at the time. I’ve converted the shot to black and white and given it an antique greyscale look and a bit of vignetting in the corners and think it looks better this way:

1/400 sec at f/5.6, ISO 200, 112mm

The following is a series of photos taken of St Mary’s Cathedral – some also converted to Black and White:

1/320 sec at f/8, ISO 200, 24mm

.

1/80 sec at f/8, ISO 200, 18mm

.

1/400 sec at f/4.5, ISO 200, 40mm

The following is an HDR of a huge old tree in the Domain taken at 0, -2 and +2 EV:

1/60 sec at f/8, ISO 450, 18mm

Finally at the end of the day – a shot of my eldest and youngest in Hyde Park:

1/250 sec at f/4, ISO 2000, 50mm
