hey neerav, great astro-shots indeed.. even I cannot open the link cause of getting some 403 error, whatever… is there any chance that you can upload this photo as a 1280×1024 desktop wallpaper? would be great, thanks :)

EDITOR: Thanks for telling me about the broken link FeWo. I’ve fixed it.

You can achieve the same effect as a 1280×1024 wallpaper by setting it as “position: centre” with “color: black” in the Windows Desktop settings because it will blend in with the black sky

Me and my girlfriend tried to stay up for the lunar eclipse, but we slept through it… i have no discipline for staying up for stuff like this or the meteor shower we had recently.

Wow! Awesome photo!

Down here in Melbourne it was cloudy so I only got to see a tiny part of the eclipse. Sydneysiders got a much better view.

That photo of the bee eater was amazing! One of the more beautiful photos I’ve seen lately!

7 Aaron September 12, 2007 at 2:36 pm

That is a beautiful picture of the bird… my computer isn’t cooperating, so I couldn’t open the other one, but that looks beautiful, too. Nice work!

how much was that camera of yours?

EDITOR: I bought my Panasonic FZ30 for $400 Australian dollars second hand

9 Dev October 14, 2007 at 11:52 am

Man these are some nice pictures.
I have always wanted to get into photography.
Keep snapping away!!!

EDITOR: thanks Dev :-)

I have lots more great photos in my collection from which I’ll publish a new one roughly once/month. Previously I was worried that people would steal them and use them for commercial purposes without asking so I didn’t publish them

Now I’d rather people like yourself got to enjoy them, if people want to misuse them then they’ll get bad karma

The crocodile photo is awesome… er, just how close were you to that croc?

EDITOR: I was on the 2nd tier of a boat so perhaps 5-10metres?

11 Tony October 15, 2007 at 10:32 pm

Hey neerav, thanks for the wallpapers. Those cameras really takes quality photos.

12 T. O Donnell October 17, 2007 at 4:53 am

Not sure I’d like the croc or the blood-red moon to be in my eyeline. The eclipsed moon especially … might … bring on … the change …… AAArrrrrggghhhh! Arooooo!

Here in Romania it was clouds on the sky when the eclipse was :( too bad because i wanted so much to see it, but in last way i’ve seen it on tv.by the way, those wallpapers are hot, i’m trying to do something like these for a while !!

14 Lisa October 20, 2007 at 2:46 pm

I love the eclipse. Thanks for sharing these.

15 Vaandoo November 4, 2007 at 8:06 am

I really liked the lunar eclipse wallpaper. Immediately downloaded it and made as my desktop bkgd. Thanks.

The crocodile picture is amazing.. how did you do that seems like you make this creature angry? or you put line on her.

17 technohive November 11, 2007 at 12:30 am

I like the Jumping crocodile in the Mid bite. It is something awesome . The way it is done is bit creative. I am not really fond of crocodiles but the wallpaper was done in creative manner that it looks interesting.

18 karen November 13, 2007 at 4:43 pm

The crocodile is bit scary but I like this wallpaper it is something interesting and unique than other wallpapers you got.

19 Forrest November 16, 2007 at 7:04 pm

The first one is pretty incredible … were you in a plane, or at the top of a cliff? It looks like you’re floating in mid air, the way the photo seems to be looking straight down.

Your croc shot is a lot closer than I would ever want to get!

EDITOR: Hi Forrest

I was on a river cruise boat where they have special permission from National parks to feed the crocs. It was a combination of luck, timing and a bit of skill

By the way I like your weekly photo blog, keep them up

20 sweetroc March 12, 2009 at 11:04 pm

Now that’s a nice pic of Crocodile. Professionally taken.
