Here is my narrative describing our trip to Tasmania in November of 2018. I've linked the corresponding pages from Jonathan's web site so that folks can jump back and forth between them. I took 2,131 shots plus 68 video snippets totaling (29 GB) while on the trip - the images on the site represent a subset of those pictures.
There were three main segments on our travels through Tassie: (1) the Freycinet Experience walking tour in the Freycinet National Park, (2) a series of day tours through Discover Tasmania Tours, and (3) a photography workshop in the Tarkine Rainforest with Tarkine Trails.
The background on the webpages for this trip is a shot taken at Cook's Beach on the Freycinet Peninsula of the sea shells that cover areas of the beach - actual image to the right. I've colorized the image in Photoshop to match the color scheme of this site.
The images on the site, unless otherwise noted, were taken either using an Olympus Stylus 1 (3968×2976 pixel RAW file, ~13 MB; videos), an Olympus Stylus 790 SW (3072x2304 pixel JPEGs, ~3.5 MB), or an iPhone 8 (panoramas, videos, 4032×3024 JPEGs ~1.6 MB). I had a telephoto and a wide angle lens attachment with me but I didn't use them - the wide angle not at all. I burned the unedited version of all images onto DVDs for preservation.
On this site, I've whittled the image size down to two sizes - a thumbnail I use on the page for the day, and a 1280x960 pixel (or 960x1280 pixel), assuming I haven't cropped or altered the size image that I've saved for web usage.
Most of the images I doctored using Lightroom CC, and occasionally Photoshop for more involved processing. My most frequent adjustments were: cropping & alignment, light adjustments (exposure, contrast, highlight, shadows, whites, and blacks) and color adjustments (temperature, tint, vibrance, saturation). Less used were effects (dehaze), detail(sharpening, noise reduction), and geometry.
If you'd like the high resolution image, drop me an email (MarkTKing mac dot com) and I'll either email you a copy or set up a page where you can download the image.
