Michael Speelman's photostream |


Hi Everyone! This is me, don't worry I'm not normally this dirty.
I'm 27yrs old, from Australia. I really enjoy photography and have only been doing it now for around 10 months which is when I bought my 1st camera. So I'm only a newbie to photography but I'm learning so much everyday. Which makes me love it even more. I try and take photos everyday too. I enjoy being creative and photography for me is a passion and a way of expressing myself creatively.
My Gear
Canon EOS 50D
Canon EF-S 18-200mm IS Lens
Canon EF 100mm Macro USM Lens
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM
Canon Speedlite 580EX II
Anyway, I look forward to seeing all your fantastic photos and commenting on them, if you feel like writing me a testimonial, go ahead and thank you for doing so.
Have a great day everybody!

"Having been recently prompted to Michael's work , from someone who has come so recently to photography, it is fair to say that he certainly has an eye, not only for composition, but for colour, tone, and an appreciation of the use of light that is seen in a select few on flickr... His HDR works are very good examples of the ability to use HDR conservatively, and the balance of colours in his shots could so easily have been overwhelming using HDR, but Michael has an eye for the correct balance in all technical aspects... i look forward to see if Michael growing from a very secure and impressive base..."
