Barbara Probst is an artist from Munich, Germany and her photographic work is recently featured in Time magazine. Described as “a little sleight of hand” and “subtle”, her work is also considered an innovative use of technology for the sake of art. In many instances, multiple cameras are set up to fire instantaneously,  capturing the same scene from multiple perspectives, resulting in a confouding story of tom-foolery and wit. Notice the way she titles her work too. Very ‘24′.

A great way to introduce yourself to great photography is to actually go out there and take-a-somethin. And a great way to do that is to go on a photography tour, available through a professional photographer near you. In beautiful Sydney, for example, we have some of the world’s most interesting scenes like the spectacular Sydney harbour, with its endless bays and bridges, to eclectic mixes of Gothic, Victorian and Modern architecture. Take a leisurely stroll through the Rocks, Darlinghurst, and Surry Hills and you can capture some real gems.

Sydney offers a choice of photography tours for tourists and locals alike. If you have a time to spare, why not try Focus10 photogrpahy tours (www.focus10.com.au). They run a Sydney tour for the entire weekend (yes, that’s a LOT of photos). That includes at least 9 popular locations and many tips and tricks you don’t learn from a book.

If you prefer a one-day tour, Alfonso (www.sydneyphotographytours.com) will do a 7 hour tour covering the Rocks and the Chinese Gardens in Darling Harbour. Beautiful!

There are plenty more spectacular sights to see in Australia! If you’re a photographer in Australia who runs tours in your local area, why not send me an email to let me know what beauty lies in your corner of the world!
