Australia


Album Cover The vacation in Australia before TechEd was a blast ... got to spend a couple of weeks traveling around Australia: Sydney, Ayer's rock and Cairns ... and enjoying the sights, and clicking pictures. Of course, I would love to go again... it is such a beautiful place, and so much more to see still.

Check out the associated blog post for a trip writeup.

Here is a small selection of photos... enjoy!

My Photo Gear

Camera and Lenses

Mostly Canon stuff... specifically I use the Canon Digital Rebel XTi, along with a zoom lens, the Canon 75-300mm IS USM and a wider lens, the Canon 17-85mm IS USM as well as a few filters such as a circular polarizer and a tripod.

Software

Adobe Lightroom 2 for RAW image processing.
