Spring Flowers
This post is going to be mostly photos, with a little explanation at the start. Spring has been springing in Melbourne for about three weeks, the cherry blossoms are out, the days are sunny, yesterday I spent almost the whole day in a t-shirt! It’s very exciting after having endured a pretty cold and miserable…

Look Up
Something I try to do in my day to day life is look up, or down, or around corners. I try to notice things that I wouldn’t normally. Sometimes when I do that I have the camera with me. I went out for lunch on Chapel St, Prahrana. I sat there, on the first day…

Adelaide Adventure
This week I spent three days in Adelaide doing training for work. I had intended to have a bit of a wander around the city and get some photos of the different architecture and other stuff that I wouldn’t see in Melbourne. However my knee is still pretty sore so walking a long way was…

California Hotel
I have been driving past the California Hotel for months now, possibly years even looking at it’s dilapidated exterior, it’s smashed windows like a gapped toothed smile. I have often wanted to go in and shoot it, but the because it’s winter here I haven’t been lucky with the light. Today Melbourne and Mother Nature…

Playing with light: Markit @ Federation Square
It’s been a while since I did a photo essay, and this one isn’t really a photo essay, it’s more a chance for me to share my experimentations from my adventure yesterday. I was at Markit @ Federation Square. For those of you not in Melbourne Federation Square is a modern building complex that was…

Beach Walk Adventure
The last couple of days I have spent in a beach house in Tootgarook, about 1.5hrs down the coast from Melbourne. A friend of mine was having a birthday celebration and about 20 people all went away to help her celebrate. I hope that she had a fantastic time, I know I certainly did! On…

I AM A POET!
For those of you who have been following along you would know that I had decided to read some of my poetry at the Dan O’Connell Hotel Saturday Poetry Group in this entry. About Wednesday this week I decided that this week was the week to do it because otherwise I would just keep putting…
