Night Shooting around Broken Hill

Out in the bush, south of Broken Hill a few kms - a bright moon and still some vague ambient light illuminating the night sky. 25s, ISO1600, f4
Night sky, plus some brief flashlight illumination.
Browns Shaft illuminated by torch light after sunset

Old water tanks alongside Browns Shaft.
Ambient light plus several speedlight flashes to the right (you can just see me silhouetted to the side) and some additional torchlight to the left.
(30s, f4 ISO400)

Wilcannia Cemetery

Here I was at Wilcannia Cemetary - quite by accident actually, but I like visiting outback cemeteries because they are historically interesting. They are often quite poignant, sometimes quite tragic when you discover what some of the early pioneers had to endure - living in primitive conditions, with no security, dying at very young ages from diseases that have been virtually eradicated. Wilcannia was particularly poignant - lots of plastic flowers and family objects arranged on the graves, favourite toys, objects and curios...
