I like to list all the 'WWW Finds' I have collected in my browser. Here are my March 2016 bookmarks.
Naming Photography Collections Appropriately
A few nights ago I was pondering if I should give my photography collections fancy names. I wanted to use interesting words that described the nature of the collection yet without sounding all pretentious and prissy. It still had to sound masculine, yet attracting everyone. So I did what everyone does: I googled a few... Continue Reading →
Baby Update + Photography
I'm not writing a lot these days as we are busy making our home ready for the baby. Yep, it's only six weeks away - so lots of changes need to happen. Thankfully we have the nursery ready for sleeping. There's enough teddy bears to give one a month for the next few years! Today we... Continue Reading →
One Way to Have a Great Weekend – My Way!
It's been a busy weekend of editing photographs and creating new graphics. All whilst doing some gardening, so nothing happened as fast it could have done. Yet this is not what I had planned for the weekend ... I did have plans to build an eBay store. I saw last week (via someone on Facebook)... Continue Reading →
The 8 Best Photography Magazines
It would be fair to say that I read too many photography-magazines. I have a few years of editions Many were disposed of in mid 2016. You'd think I would subscribe. It's certainly a great way to save a LOT of money as many magazines offer incentives. What I like most about magazines is full... 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,...

Favourite Photo’s of 2008
I had an idea whilst perusing my photography uploaded to Flickr throughout 2008: Upload 1 photograph from each month of 2008 from our own photo-gallery's upon Flickr. Here are my results: January Stichware: None. With a good tripod, a remote, a bit of pre-thought on where the camera would see me and nil flash -... Continue Reading →
Amazing Canon Accessories
Quite by accident I went hunting on Amazon for Canon parts. Here's what I found that I really really really really really want!! Understanding the Canon Speedlite 580EX / 430EX As an owner of the 580EXii, I am often amazed by the features that are so difficult to draw out of it. It allows the... Continue Reading →
Break a Habit and Save a Few Dollars
I was addicted to Cola (in each branded variety) for well over twenty years. When I was a teenager, fizzy drinks were not as accessible as they are now, it was only found at parties and events, so the taste was discovered! Now I am more aware of the impact of carbonated drinks on the... Continue Reading →
Time To See A Movie or Two
I need to find time to see a few good movies. After a discussion about "Being John Malkovich" with a work colleague (after she saw me reaching into the back of the stationery-cupboard), I was sent an email with a list of further movies I should watch. It's an amazing list of movies that I... Continue Reading →
Nikon’s Biggest and Longest Lens
The Biggest Zoom Lens You'll Ever See! "The Beast" — a 1200–1700mm f/5.6 IF-ED Nikon zoom, custom-converted to Canon — was a true Goliath of its time. The tripod alone was a gigantic Manfrotto with a video head built to handle the monstrous weight. Mal Langsdon, Reuters' Head of Pictures Operations for France, BENELUX, Italy,... Continue Reading →
Interesting Sites Found Whilst in Recovery
The most impressive actor on television today. Considering what he has to pretend to be. If I had just one half of his knowledge, I’d be twice as smart as I am now. Wait. That doesn’t sound good does it? The simplest website on the internet. I like it. Immensely. For all you entrepreneurs out... Continue Reading →
