My wife and I spent last week on my boss’ boat in Hamilton Island. Apparently they haven’t had a wet season for 5 years now. Well they did this year, but we managed to get out into the islands for a couple of days. It was good to get away for a week. We left a day before a tropical cyclone came close to the area.

I started playing around with the 1.0 release of Lightroom last night, finally getting around to looking at the photos taken when the Queen Mary 2 came into Sydney. It’s fast and the workflow is intuitive. It certainly beats my old method of using iPhoto to import and organise and Photoshop with ACR to do RAW conversion. Check out the photoset below.
I managed to catch some of the lightning last night. Check out some of the photos below.
Pity about the dust hair that appears just at this next set of photos.
There are more on my flickr account. Check out the set here.
Nature truly is magnificent!
