Summer took its time getting here, but arrive it did. And generously, it was both warm (hot?) and a bit overcast.  Not quite reliably so, so I still spent time fiddling with settings every time a cloud moved out of position - but at least I didn't spend half a week trying to recover highlights from surprise sun-visits.

Given it was the last sunny weekend before two weeks of bonus points courtesy of the impending Christmas break, I was a bit surprised at the comparative lack of traffic.

After a few hours spent slowly melting in the shade, I had 2200 photos to show for it. Just 7 days later that number has been whittled down to the final 200-ish images.

Shutter ranged from 1/125th (not many) all the way down to 1/50th - which is as low as I've managed to go and still have usable images.

If you find something you like - it'd be great if you could value my time and effort by purchasing an image or three. $10 is a screaming deal - I put real effort into each and every photo I publish.  Note now you also have the option to buy yourself a photo, and throw an extra beer my way. No obligation, but if you would like to, now you can. Also, I love beer.

Note: Purchased images are all at least 4000px across (about 3.5 times the size you see them in the gallery) and do not have the large watermark.

I almost discarded this - but it turned out to be one of my favourites: 1/50th of a second.
