The 12 Apostles, Victoria [BIG Rez Free Wallpaper]

by Victor Augusteo on November 26, 2009

in Photoshoots

For the first time, I’m giving out a HUGE resolution photo as wallpaper. I’ve formatted this to fit 2560×1440 (27″ apple display) and 1280×1024 displays. If your monitor isn’t in the preformatted display, just download the big one and crop it.

Free for personal use. Do not re-distribute without my permission. If you want to refer your friend, just lead them kindly to this page.

Some back story:
I took this photo last Sunday when we go to the Great Ocean Road in Victoria [Aussie]
The wind was absolutely crazy. Its really hard to keep your camera steady. I had to brace against the fence and use 1/200s to get more stability. Took many photos, but only this one has captured my heart and soul.

You know we often lose all our inspirations,
don’t know what to shoot,
no idea how to compose that shoot,
feeling down,
the lights looks all the same,
and we just don’t want to pick up the camera.

Of course all of us have experienced that before.
And for that, i present you these links to help lift up your spirit,
look for examples,
and to be INSPIRED!

1. Flickr Interestingness
You never know what you will find in here, topic ranges from everything to anything


2. DeviantART Photography

3. Nature

4. People

Photo Gallery of Oakleigh Futsal Competition Indonesia Vs. France

September 1, 2009

No, not really, it’s not the countries that is versing each other. The clubs were made of students/people from other countries who love indoor soccer. The lighting wasn’t that great, so I have to use very high ISO to capture this.
Lighting: just indoor lamps forcing me to use ISO 1000-1600
Lens: my fastest lens = 35mm [...]
