About the Photo

This photo was taken on the western beach of Fraser Island in August of 2009, strong currents and wind had pushed alot of shells and Portugese Man-o-war onto the beach in a jumble.

How it was Taken

The photo is taken with a Canon EOS 300D Digital SLR, with a Canon 28-135mm zoom, using the maximum zoom of 135mm and an aperture of F5.6.  The focal length creates a subtle suppression of perspective, and also narrows the depth of field, creating the focal band on the centre of the image.
