I have found a PDF that makes good reading for Adelaide residents who have penchant for knowledge that includes facts, figures and fees. I have gone through it with a fine tooth comb: Below I have listed the pages and Fee-ID's that might be of interest to the photographers of our great and ever-growing inner-city. Page 20,...

Quote Mash of the Day
"Last minute necessity is the mother of entrepreneurial invention." Between camera stores, seeking a particular part for my tripod, I muttered it to myself in 2013. Little did I know that this random muttering would hold a grain of universal truth, especially in the realm of photography. Picture this: You're on the brink of capturing... Continue Reading →

After buying five native plants for $19.50, both my wife and I were inspired to dig up the front yard. Four hours of digging up soil, raking it around and digging up weeds was painful. Here's how...

Using Pain to Focus on What Matters
Thanks to a comment one night on my Facebook status, I spent the previous night dreaming through what my life would be like without a job. It wasn't pretty, I did NOT like it. Whilst my brain might be a bit addled these days with 'Severe Vertigo', I still have the power to think, reason,... Continue Reading →
