After a loooong day at work, I settled into the evening not knowing what would come of it. I had a few things planned, but most were undoable (terrible word, yet apt) due to this cold that has grabbed me quite by surprise. So I sat the computer avoiding all that aggravated my headache and... Continue Reading →
Creating New Graphics and Galleries
After ten years online, I now have my photography and graphics available to view and purchase at FIVE different online locations, and each under a different pseudonym: Redbubble - 'stephentrepreneur' PhotoWhosalers - 'Stephen Mitchell' - Yes, my real name! ImageKind - 'ezcreate' Zazzle - 'eztephen' Flickr - 'stephenliveshere' Tonight I discovered and started adding the... Continue Reading →
Macro Photography at Wittunga
I have a lovely 60mm dedicated-macro Canon lens that fits very nicely into my Canon EOS 400D. Today the sun is out and the sky is mostly-blue, so I am going with Susan Adey, a fellow photographer upon Redbubble. We visited the flowers at the Wittunga Botanic Gardens, shooting their petals and features at all... Continue Reading →
King Charles
This is my mother's pet "King Charles Cavalier Spaniel", named "Charlie". Charles is a lovely little dog who loves a lot of attention. Last time we visited I had a great opportunity to shoot a few interesting photographs as he ran around. Because Charlie would not stand still, he was put on the lower deck... Continue Reading →
The Austin A70 Hampshire Utility
This is the very rare Austin A70 Hampshire Ute (or PickUp), albeit a little worse for wear and completely beyond restoration, is located on my father-in-law's farm on Kangaroo Island. This once beautiful car will probably rust all the way back into the ground from whence its metal and leather parts originated. The last time... Continue Reading →
Wheels
A friend of mine wanted to see all the photographs within my Redbubble photo-gallery that have wheels in them. I was going to tag them all accordingly, but that seemed time consuming. So I spent an hour to compile this page together: | | | | | | | | | | | | |... Continue Reading →
Finding Patterns on Calendars
Check out my photographs upon the latest calendar on my Redbubble photo gallery. I like it because it is how I see most of the world. A whole lot of irregular patterns. Patterns are everywhere, some are normal, most are irregular and disjointed. Many cross each other’s path, some without knowing, many in the weirdest... Continue Reading →
My Four Twin Brothers
I've accomplished the seemingly impossible: I've cloned myself!. After many phone calls around Australia, all four of us met in my backyard for this photo shoot. Below are my four clone brothers wearing two of my Redbubble shirts and two t-shirts purchased from other Redbubble artists, and me wearing an un-official Apple iPhone shirt! Yes,...

Nine Steps to Healthy Photography
This works predominately for any one of the many artists on Redbubble.com, yet it could work anyone who sells their artwork either via retail or through their own website. 1. Upload work. View and review each piece as a Card, Canvas and Poster, and Framed, Mounted and Laminated. ... This helps you to see how... Continue Reading →
Keyboard
I have spent much of today cleaning out my office, making the various-sized desks fit better. This has meant moving a lot of stuff that I often wonder why I hoarded, kept or ever purchased. Much electronic gadgetry has arisen to the surface, including an old DELL keyboard. I estimate it has been in my... Continue Reading →
Canon EOS 7D
Have you seen this very new Canon camera? It looks impressive! The Canon EOS 7D. With a 18megapixel CMOS sensor, up to 12800 ISO and a 19-focal-point sensor, this camera looks mighty impressive. The only flaw? Well, just for the body alone you'll pay around AU$2,500. With the kit lens (EF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS), you'll... Continue Reading →
There isn't always a story to go with a photograph. Sometimes it's just an image of something seen. This is one of those times.
