Tasman Island Lighthouse Photo

Photographer’s Note

Trip to Tasmania – Day 6

Hobart to Tasman National Park and Port Arthur Historic Site – 100km along the Arthur Highway.

The boat tour continued along the rugged coast of the Tasman Peninsula to Cape Pillar (WS1) and Tasman Island which houses one of the two most isolated lighthouses in Australia (main posting). In WS2 is another view of the Tasman Island.

Hello Antonio,
Yet another crystal clear shot from your Tasmanian odyssey, the cliffs around Tasman Light are so rugged yet so beautiful.
Superbly composed, I love the very low to the water POV as well.
A wonderful capture.
Regards
Peter

Hello Antonio,

I don't think I have ever seen a lighthouse this far away from the shore?!
Well they saved construction materials by making use of the natural elevation hehehe...
The rugged coastline tells the story of many many years of harsh weather in this fine composition from a remote place by any measure!

Greetings,

Good lighting and superb detail and colors. Another very beautiful scene. TFS

macondo (13361) 2009-07-12 2:58

Hello Antonio.
Bright sunlight and strong shadows make this rocky coast look stark, rugged and towering, dwarfing the old lighthouse on top. The rocks have an interesting pipe-like formation which creates a pleasing perpendicular angle with the shoreline. I suppose you were using such a fast shutter speed to counter the movement of the boat. Good result!
Regards,
Andrew

Linda foto Antonio.
Desde o movimento da água em suaves ondulações até a fantástica textura do verde da vegetação rasteira mesclada com as rochas.
A torre branca mais acima também oferece um toque especial a foto.
Grande abraço,
Wagner.

Great landscape, Antonio!
I like the diagonal line running right across the shot. THe green and blue shades are very pleasant to the eye as well.

Cheers.
Dave

Olá Antônio,
parece bem grande mesmo essa ilha, de relevo bem peculiar. IMpressionante como o farol ficou pequeno lá no alto. Boas cores e fotos nos WSs.
Parabéns e Abraço

Charo (32234) 2009-07-13 14:05

Olá Antonio,
Parece que a perspectiva de tomar de longe, como o farol é muito pequena, e contrasta com o tamanho das arribas. A luz e as cores são excelentes.
Abraços,
Charo

Olá António,
Estas fotos são mais um belo conjunto para mostrar a costa da Tasmânia.
Gostaria de ver o farol mais perto.
Cumprimentos,
Francisco

Linda imagem! O local parece ser mesmo ideal para belas fotografias como essa e as do WS também. Excelentes cores e composição. Parabéns por mais esse belo trabalho. Abraço

Dear Antonio

Tasamania seems to be a very photogenic place. There certainly is more then only cheese, that's what I knew about it. I really like this rocks and the green grass vs. the blue sky and sea. Your light and color management is fine as also the sharpness and DOF are. Congrasts

Friendly regards
Urs

Antonio, when I first opened this i wanted to write only that you live in a beautiful land and take great pictures, but to satisfy TE I add that the colors and focus are great and that I like the deep shadows on the right and the brilliant sky, great work mate.

Greg

Olá Antonio,

Estou adorando este passeio pela Tasmania através das suas fotos. Esta imagem é linda, uma costa selvagem com rochas esculpidas pelo mar. O farol, que parece tão pequeno, com certeza deve dar uma grande ajuda aos navegantes.

Abraços
Leonor

AiresSantos (43298) 2009-07-15 23:39

Ola Antonio
As cores e o enquadramento estão maravilhosos.
O farol está muito longe mas da para ver.
Bom ajuste do contraste
Um abraco Amigo

Hello Antonio
The weather seems perfect in this spectacular but isolated part of Australia. Good composition with the lighthouse so small above the pipe organ rocks. Tfs, Marlene

Hi Antonio,
A very pictural landscape, great natural colours and a strong composition.

Olá António,

Acerca desta já não digo que faz lembrar Portugal, pois acho as formações rochosas bastante originais e certamente muito interessantes. Dá ideia que são estalagmites muito compactas. Mas as encostas verdes e o azul do céu e do mar também contribuem imenso para tornar a foto muito atraente.

OS WS's são excelentes. O das silhuetas das rochas é até talvez uma fotografia melhor que o post principal, gosto muito do grafismo da compo.
Um abraço,
José

Hi Antonio. Nice post, good info and three excellent photos. It certainly is a rugged coastline well in need of lighthouses. Excellent colours and clarity, well captured and thanks for sharing.
Have a good Sunday, Paul.

Olá António!
Bela foto desta costa.
A vista lá daquele farol também deve ser fantástica.
Lindas cores também.
Grande Abraço.

Hello Antonio,

In this image of the rugged coastline, the vertical shafts of rocks stand like sentinels. It is desolate place, but in the fall when you've captured this image, the light is clear and crisp. Well done.

Warm regards,

Bulent
