@TimMaddog @GreenFire @Runyan50 Oh okay. I was wondering why you kept using the #NorfolkIsland 🇳🇫 flag, which ironically is similar to the flag of #Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Poetry, song, dance & prayer today in local language Norfuk to farewell the Norfolk Island lighters that were central to island life & culture for 2 centuries. Lovely community event with a Pitcairn presence. #NorfolkIsland #history #histodons #Pitcairn #Australia #PublicHistory #shipping #lighters #Pacific #PacificIslands #song #dance #poetry #prayer

I’ve got to say it’s not looking great. #CycloneGabrielle #NorfolkIsland

This was the view heading for a swim this morning. #NorfolkIsland #Photography . Pretty nice.
The “SIRIUS anchor” was recovered from the wreck site of HMS SIRIUS in the 1980s & is on loan to the Australian Maritime Museum from the Norfolk Island Museum. Every 6 months museum conservators examine the anchor, document its condition, undertake treatment & relay this information back to Norfolk Island #ships #NorfolkIsland #museums #history

One more photo for you. Returning to Norfolk Island this time, because that's where the thread started! The very idea that you can shoot an entire island into a single image is quite remarkable. The drone does most of the work.
Anyway, I'd better stop soaking up server space today, would like to avoid annoying the admins here!

What I love about drone work is getting an angle that I otherwise cannot physically reach. Sometimes that's just a meters over the edge of a cliff, or sometimes it's 50m down the hill where there's no trail.
I bought some very nice variable ND filters for my Mavic Pro 2 which let me slow down the shutter, just like you normally would when shooting a waterfall.
So I shot some waterfalls too!

What's really special about visiting a small island in the middle of the ocean, is the angle of the light. Provided the clouds don't get in the way, you have seriously low angled sun to work with. That's my jam.
Well, that and a little f/2 action of course.

These fellas get a bad wrap on Norfolk Island. The locals say they're not really from here, and now there's too many of them.
Would be ironic to point out the not so distant history of how the "locals" came to live in Norfolk Island I suppose?

If you don't like coastline, then you won't like Norfolk Island a whole heap :)

Every time we'd find a nice little patch of forest for a walk, there'd be a Piwa come join us. They watch to see if our feet kick up any bugs they can snack on. Lots of friendly Piwa on the island :)

Continuing my set of pics from Norfolk Island today. Landscapes are a challenge in terms of waiting for the right light, but catching birds on the island is a bit more work.

I should leave this thread for the night. It's a bit late here in Australia and I should be in bed. Will share a few more in the days to come :)
Final batch here with a focus on some of the lovely birds you'll find on Norfolk Island.

Not a bad place to share with a bunch of photographers. I hadn't been to Norfolk Island for 16 years so it was nice to go back and have a chance to enjoy the photography instead of working.
