I shot this photograph of Perth City the other night while there was a lot of smoke blowing across the face of the city from a fire in one of the southern suburbs. The smoke silhouetted the buildings a bit and created a nice effect. Very little processing was needed for this photo, which is always a good thing, I think.

I’d like to see this photo printed out nice and large. I think the pastel colours would look quite nice on some Fujiflex or high quality pearl paper. Any takers?

I haven’t been out shooting a lot lately, but I am itching to get out, so I’m sure that I will be posting more often shortly.

As most of you probably know, I’ve recently purchased the Canon 5D MkII and have been playing around with the HD video features of the camera. The quality of the recordings it captures is quite astonishing as you can see here.

This is just a quick edit I have put together as I don’t have much more footage to play with at the moment. Over the coming weeks I will be traveling around Perth capturing some more footage and I will extend the length of this film.

Thanks for viewing,

Beau Mitchell

I have wanted to shoot this angle of Perth including the Decoy for a while now, and the other night I finally got off my ass and drove down to South Perth. I think it might be better at sunrise, so I’ll have to return here early one morning, maybe over this coming week if any other Perth photographers wants to join me?

It’s a 7 photo stitch with the 5D MkII and 50mm lens. It came out at about 60″ at 300dpi, which will allow for a generous sized print.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my photographs!

I picked Emily up after work from the city around 5.30. We were planning on heading to Cottesloe Beach to take some photos. The traffic was pretty heavy and I didn’t think we’d make it to Cottesloe in time for sunset, so we decided to visit Kings Park instead. I know, every photographer who lives or has ever visited Perth has taken this exact photo, but I was in the mood to shoot and had nowhere to go…

We’re off to the Red Bull Air Race today. Hopefully i’ll get some interesting photos there.

I have put together a few short clips from my last few weeks with the Canon 5D MkII. I have no idea how to edit video footage, but just thought I’d share this anyway.

The footage is from:
Nerang River, Gold Coast, QLD
Springbrook National Park, Gold Coast, QLD
Perth, WA
Wategoes Beach, Byron Bay, NSW
Brindle Creek, Border Ranges, NSW
