Yarramundi Lagoon by Ian Cambourne

October 2025 - Yarramundi Lagoon

About the Image(s)

This image is part of an ongoing venture. Part of it is practicing my long exposure techniques and also recording the sad devastation and destruction of this area, which is about 20 minutes from home. Yarramundi Lagoon used to be a favourite picnic and photo location in our area, where two rivers join. Until about 3 years ago, when we had a huge flood and the water flowing down both rivers just literally washed it away. There are still many large trees strewn in and around the water. This image was taken from a lower angle to emphasize the details in the fallen trees together with the movement in the clouds, while others were taken from a higher viewpoint to give some separation between the elements in the scene. I've taken more images in IR b&w than colour, in the hope of adding to the mood of destruction. Maybe next month I'll submit one of those.
Details are: Nikon D810; 24mm lens length; ISO 64; F16; 136 seconds and tripod mounted.
