Images from Norfolk Island, South Pacific

Hi all,

I have finally had some time to post these images from a holiday to Norfolk Island late last year. This island is an Australian external territory, but it is self-governed. It has an fascinating and many-faceted history. Hopefully this diverse range of images will show some of that.

The old convict ruins are a reminder of the atrocities that happened there, but the coastline and parklands are just beautiful. The population is small, and the lifestyle is laid-back. I can only say go there if you can.

The following were taken with my K-r and the 15mm Ltd, 17-50 Tamron and Tamron 90 mm. For some of them you will see they were very long exposures. I was using a ND filter, a Kenko ND400. I also was using a Conkin graduated filter with the 15mm lens on occasion.
