The more I have been experimenting the more I realise how much Macro and Portrait photography have in common, the lighting affects it drastically just like a portrait. And the more I experiment wit Macro and diffuser setups the more I realise that it is just a mini studio setup for portraiture...

As the title says and i am bad at this especially with wildlife photography I fail to fill my frame of my camera. But today I did something different, I tried to fill my frame and guess what was about to happen. And not always will it be a lot of pics, in this one it took 3 and I am going to...

If no one has heard of this I just stumbled across it myself, it is a program that allows you to download certain profiles for a lens and camera combination. I just got one for my D800E and Rokinon 14mm 2.8. This is the Mac version. Adobe - Adobe Lens Profile Downloader : For Macintosh...

I thought we could have some fun with this and post your selfies with any animal you can think of. I will start with a few I have.

I am looking at NAS but this time regarding storage, my HDD's connected via USB just aren't cutting it. I have trawled the net and have come across this bad boy. Synology DiskStation DS1815+ 8-Bay Scalable NAS - Hard Disk Drive and Enclosure - Landmark Computers Any input regarding this would...

I thought it would be interesting to see my macro evolution ever since I got the Tamron 90mm. Back in the day I never used flash and disliked using flash very much, boy how things have changed. Here is a shot taken in my backyard back in 2012, I used golden syrup to attract the green tree...

Well when this kickstarter first came up I pledged $295 AUD it was supposed to be ready March 2015 but had been pushed back to April. Needless to say I am excited about it :) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1691789323/panlight-remote-direction-control-for-flash-and-ca/comments?ref=email

FYI BBC News - Chile volcano Villarrica eruption spews ash and lava

Here is a video I quickly threw together of the recent hiking we had done, I hope you can sit through it (9mins) and give me some feedback. Video is definitely not what I am good at but it does show the landscape in a different light, you even get to hear my Aussie accent near the end lol...

What a great way to end the first day of March. Hope you all enjoy.

In here I will post my straight out of camera shots, I do not care how bad these are all I am going to try and showcase is that with a bit of editing afterwards you may fix a crap pic that you need. Also I will show you what I do to try and alleviate crap photos. Tonight has been about macro...

I sent an email to Nikon regarding my D600 Un-Edited... Edited. (Takes too much time)

This is what driving back from servicing my car looks like.

This is the reason why I do not share videos often, this is a 4min clip...

EDIT: I have written this quick blog on my website. Blog | Scott H Murray Photography Ok this should be made a sticky to start off with. I am going to try and capture all my findings and trials and tribulations with macro photography in this one thread as we have got too many and one more...

Interesting - Nikon D5, D4x DSLR and other Nikon rumours

Just took my new phantom for its maiden flight (after charging all batteries overnight). And it was good fun and a bit easier to fly than I first originally thought it would be. Here is a shot from the camera, pretty good quality. I am uploading the video now, nothing fancy but just a quick...

Well it started with me hearing thunder, and then looking at the radar.

Love this shot. Was a shot that worked out quite well and one that I have waited for.

Well it is not too often I post a photo to its own thread, but this one deserved it. We have an amazing storm pass over and it lasted for ages. So I was able to walk the 50mtrs to my lake and snap this 30 sec exposure....
