orchid house
by matt
The kitchen garden had lots of interesting things but I think my favourite was the orchid house – a very modest and dignified arrangement of super thin scaffolding and lightweight plastic mesh. There must’ve been well over two hundred plants inside.

Lagoon Villas

It took me quite a few attempts to get this right… I also had to battle with some serious lens distortion as a result of taking the shot from such a low view point. Long exposed shots are great fun and can transform a scene, but in low light conditions the long exposure can result in elevated noise levels which have the potential to completely spoil things post-processing. I think this one worked out ok and I’m 90% happy with it. There’s also a person sitting down on the edge of the walkway on the left hand side. See if you can make her out… Believe it or not, I never noticed she was there until she got up and walked away from me shortly after I had taken several shots.
