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,...

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 →
Koala
During last weekend's visit to the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary (near Brisbane, QLD, Australia) we had the good fortune to see a baby koala being nursed by its sleeping mother. Thankfully their sleep-trees have their gum-leaf dinner placed high enough off the ground - The board-walk through the treeline enabled both gawkers and photographers to successfully...

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.
Amazing Camera Lenses You Wish You Had
Over the last two years I have bookmarked over twenty amazing lens that I'd really like to buy. Some I have been able to purchase here in Adelaide, but some will remain must-have's for some time yet. Thankfully I have had the presence-of-mind to save them all to my delicious feed. That way I can... Continue Reading →

Getting Discounts on Your Photo Equipment
As a consequence of the great customer service I received today, I now only shop at ONE retail-outlet for ALL my photographic equipment! Adelaide photographers are the most unlucky when it comes to photographic-retail outlets. Our options are limited. There are very few retail outlets within the Adelaide CBD, nor in the suburbs! And then... Continue Reading →
Make a Home-Made Snoot for your Flash-Gun
I've had this idea for a snoot for about six months. But the issue was how to fit the square peg (flash gun) into the round white plastic ("Betty Crocker" frosting tub). A few nights ago the idea appeared before in my day-bag: About eighteen months ago I got a Apple Touch. Within six months,... Continue Reading →
