Rated R for animal nudity
I didn't realize how explicit this picture was until I was editing it. Excited to see me much?

A wallaby smelling his hands in a field near our hut. I was amazed at how well they blended into their environment.

Color or no color?
Stone path on the way to the summit of Mt. Ossa. Do prefer it in grayscale or color?
Here's a link to the color original (with a fellow hiker, but you get the gist): http://www.flickr.com/photos/sbauer810/2139423768/in/set-72157603550307984/

The sky is on fire!
These are some of the most vibrate clouds at sunset that I've ever seen. I couldn't really capture it with a camera but I did my best to contrast the orange sky against the eucalyptus trees.

New lens coming up!
I'm getting this bad boy as an anniversary present from Audrey, I'm stoked! It's the Canon EF-S 17-85mm with image stabilizer. Funny that I'm getting image stabilizer on my smaller lens and don't have it on my 75-300mm, but I'm excited to test it out! Much better reviews than the 18-55mm that I've used for 4 years, it came stock with the Rebel XT. I'll be sure to post my first shots as soon as I get it!

We had a beautiful sunset poking through the trees behind us. These were in my edit-happy days so I did bring out some of the colors. I will post an original one of these days.

Leading at sunset
Dhugal shows us how it's done on a sunset climb. You can see the alpine glow on the rocks. This climb was awesome because there was a ledge you could climb up and take pictures of people on their way up.

Ski base camp
A cool thing about Australia is the tallest mountains are surrounded by MUCH smaller hills. Makes for a pretty dramatic contrast. This was the ski camp that I repeatedly fell down the mountain from.

Frost tipped
The clouds and the tree have a similar speckled pattern. Taken on a cross-country skiing trip at Mt. Baw Baw. Yes, Australia does have snow, just not very much.
