I like the beach in winter. In summer there are 2 million people on the sand.

Underground lake on Flickr.

In Weebubbie Cave, near Eucla, West Australia. This was in early 1979. The pipe on the right should be vertical but if I straighten it the picture will lose some impact. The pipe is about 10metres in height.

The town of Eucla gets its water supply from this lake. The water is crystal clear. So clear in fact that you walk straight into it without seeing it. The lake is over 30m deep. The cave continues underwater.

This photo was taken using an apparatus that burns magnesium pellets, called a “diprotodon”.

Camera was an Olympus OM2. Lens, I forget. Film FP4.

citiesandcitizens - I’ve been doing it for around 5 years but more seriously these past 2 or 3 years. It certainly helps to use some of the techniques you reblogged. The ones I use most are:

- Annoyance that someone has got in the frame.
- Frame the scene, take my eye away from the viewfinder, wait for them to  get into position and then take the shot.

So if anyone sees someone like this, taking your shot, you know they did it on purpose!

.

I have used both these techniques. I don’t shoot on the street a lot because I live in a pretty quiet town. Most of my urban street photography is done when I’m travelling. But I was out yesterday and sat myself down in a spot where the composition was good and waited for a human to enter the frame. Quiet town, I had to wait a while. A woman appeared, and, when she got to the critical position I took the shot. She saw me and headed straight towards me. Not to complain though but because she recognised me. We work in the same building. Small town…

Very nice street shooting here from my friend Bill. Shot with a  Konica III - a solid little 35mm rangefinder from around 1960.

The latest wave leaves from Yurakucho Station in Tokyo to places unknown.

I’m pretty sure this was shot from the hip with my Konica III. What you see here was at about a twenty degree angle on the roll. I don’t think it was an accidental shot, but I’m willing to accept that possibility since the Konica III has a hair trigger. I decided to use it because I liked the path of light that went down the middle.
