Hey All, We headed down to Mullalyup, Western Australia to Bec’s Grandpa’s place (http://willowsrest.com), it’s a lovely place set on 16 Acres of beautiful land. Mullalyup and the whole region is known for having very little light pollution at night, which makes it perfect for star gazing and astro-photography. I took the opportunity to set [...]

On Saturday I headed out with my good mate Brock to do some exploring and take some photos.. we headed out through York and setup in someone’s paddock for sunset. We did some shooting there and I managed to capture this 9 image panoramic: After the sunset we headed up towards Toodyay through Northam and [...]

Headed out yesterday afternoon with fellow landscape photographer Adrian Wayte, we went and checked out North Cottesloe first, but we didn’t really see anything that really connected. So we took a drive north along the coast and eventually ended up at Burns Beach.. I’d photographed portrait sessions here before but never any landscape work. I [...]

We had another epic storm tonight, lightning and thunder non-stop! I wasn’t going to head out because I have a lot of work to catch up on.. but then just couldn’t help myself.. definitely worth the 45 minutes I took.. This is a 71 second exposure, 1 continuous shot, no layering or anything tricky like [...]

Here is the time lapse video I put together from the 1040 photos I took of the lunar eclipse. It’s a bit shaky in the middle, I’ve tried to stabilise it as best I can in After Effects.. Regards Paul Pichugin

What a great way to finish up an awesome week that I’ve had. This time 5 years ago I was getting married to my best friend, I suggested we do the romantic thing and go out to a nice restaurant, maybe catch a movie and generally just have a nice night out. Bec instead suggested [...]

What an amazing week it has been! Late Monday night I went storm chasing and got some good tips on where to go from my friends at The WA Weather Group, I ended up at Mindarie taking photos for several hours. Afterwards I headed in to the city to see if I could get any [...]
