Canon eos 40d wallpapers (56)

A beautiful Autumn morning at Lake Hayes, Queenstown, New Zealand. More pics from my Queenstown trip on my website - let me know if you would like any submitted here.

Now here you go with a bit of a different "macro" photo. I got a lot of inspiration last week from old cross-processing techniques and went a bit crazy with my f/1.4 lens and different post-processing approaches. However, I really love this shot as a wallpaper. The bokeh is just amazing and there is still so much detail in the flower despite f/1.8. Hope you enjoy it!

I was lucky to have this great view over the mountains of Franschhoek valley in Western Cape, South Africa. When the last sun rays gave the valley its warm colours I took this photo.

Back in July 2008 I was taking a break from work and went out on the roof of my office building with my camera. Little did I know there would be a huge storm cloud looking East which was almost in the path of airplanes attempting to land.

I went back to Otuataua Stonefields, a regional park just a 15 minute drive from my house. The sunset was pretty good and I got a few shots (uploaded to my website). This one didn't quite make the cut but I thought it might make a nice wallpaper.

In 2009, I spent Christmas at the southern-most point of Africa: Cape Agulhas. I was eager to see another amazing sunset as I did so often being in Africa for a couple of months. However, there was a big layer of clouds covering the whole sky and I was pretty disappointed. That was when the idea for this shot struck me. There was this small strip just over the horizon where the Sun illuminated the clouds, restrained by the Atlantic ocean below and the thick layer of clouds above. I exposed for the sunlight and left everything else pitchblack to achieve this result.

The African Black Oystercatcher is a resident breeder on the rocky coasts and islands of southern Africa. Sadly, there are currently less than 9,000 adult birds of this species, so it is highly endangered. However, it is easy to spot along the coasts of South Africa.

The second camp in Etosha, Halali, is located next to the Moringa waterhole. I spent my second night in Etosha staying at this camp and watching the waterhole for most of the day. When the Sun began to sink behind the horizon I watched this matriarchal group of elephants drinking at the waterhole. While observing the animals we also had an amazing sunset with an orange so saturated - I never saw anything like it before.
