Nice selection of shots there mitedo.
I've been meaning to go back thru there some time, been quite a few years and always struck me as a rather scenic area.

Fantastic shots.. I also love the frames you used.. Are they a photoshop plugin or something, or did you do it by hand?

The weathered weatherboard & tanks and the Railway pub do it for me. Both are full of potential for a subsequent excursion with more time and different light.

Excellent images Kevin. They really show the character of the town. I really like #2 but enjoyed looking at them all.

These are fantastic! The colours are so vibrant! The second one would be my pic, just love it, and I think would look great in B&W too.
I'm a sucker for rust and weathered wood, so the third and the last do it for me too!! Love this kind of stuff, it's so typicaly Australian! Makes me want to get out into the country now with my camera in tow......who wants the kids for a couple of days??
Well done, a fantastic series.

Talk about frames, those ones there in that action that i have changes the size of my pics to a strange size, as i used to use that a long time ago. The double matte frame.

Looks like a magic spot, great images. The one of the old homestead would be a good one for B&W..

The good thing about the action is that you can go in and change things to the way you like them - resize /sharpen / change boarder colours & so on, i have mine set up so that after nef to jpeg i hit the button a few times & the pic is resized /sharpend/ & sent to a folder i have chosen

G'day Kevin,
You could wander around these sorts of places for ages, love old homesteads and farm remains like old cattle grates and ramps... I assume you used a polariser? Great definition and texture in the sky, the greens seem a smidge saturated for me though... Are ya gonna try these in B&W with some grain and vignette huh, huh, huh

Kevin,
Great series, you have inspired me to dust off my 12-24 and go out and get a few shots this weekend!
