Hi Marnie,

It's good to hear that your refurb torment is almost over, I'm just
beginning, wish me luck!

Those are huge mices, the kind Sylvester the cat grew to hate ;-)

Such a small patch of rock displayed amazing variation in the
formations, the little triangular garden was actually a shot on the
top of the pillar picture you like. If I was in a more photographic
frame of mind I could have really milked the place, maybe I'll head
back there some time, it's all easy to revisit now with the GPS.

Thanks Jack, I only shot 240 shot in the seven days and a few of those
were pano sequences so I'm happy that there were enough there to make
an interesting gallery, glad you enjoyed them.

Hi Bob, glad you got something out of them, thanks for commenting. ;-)

Hi Igor,

Thanks, that flower is Carpobrotus rossii, locally it's known as
Pigface, though I have no idea why. I'm sure we did break off the US
some time ago, don't you guys also have Macadamias? ;-)

Hi Dave, Thanks, it's an amazing place, there are lots of iron rich
layers embedded in the sandstone and conglomerates which weather to
form the most bizarre shapes. I'll try to dig up some more info on the
geology of the area, I'm sure that it would make an interesting read.

I'm looking forward to your visit too (and Savage ;-). Will you have
the opportunity to do a day trip or two?

Hi Joseph, it's a pity, your $ still buys a goodly number of AU$ bills
and I hear that the US-Oz airfares have never been cheaper ;-)

Hi Brian, Thanks for the comments. I've only recently discovered
Marramarang NP, beautiful spot, I've covered most of the South coast
over the years but this one slipped by for some reason.

I have some sunrise panos I shot from the top of Pigeon House in 2007,
it's a great walk and a stunning view up and down the coast. Glad you
liked em!

Hi Cotty, glad you liked the recording, unfortunately due to the gain
that's required wind noise is really an issue, even with a foam shield
the slightest breeze gets recorded. I often have to subject the files
to a really steep high pass filter at 80hz or so to reduce the wind
effects before I can optimise the levels and that's even with a low
cut filter on during record. I have a nice pair of high quality
condenser mics that have better gain and a higher max SPL which I
should use but they are just such a pain to set up compared with the
integrated mics. You can see details on the recorder here:

Check out the record sample at http://www.zoomh4.net/h4n

I've put another sample on line for your listing pleasure, you can
loop it and listen as long as you like ;-)

Thanks for the comments everyone!
