Wow. The most impressive person on this planet (according to me) passed away today. I had to check my small library to make sure: I still have his book. "A Brief History of Time". Which I imagine will be on his grave stone. May his theories, writing and memory never be forgotten.
How Many People Have To Tell America?
#America, you can continue to infuriate and amaze the rest of the planet. You need to reduce gun accessibility. Licenses must be much harder to attain. Yes, Australia has had horrific gun massacres - we fixed the problem
Surviving the Sad Times
Over the last 35 years there have been people whom I have had only one opportunity to meet. Why only once? Because they made life-altering choices that no one saw coming, or nobody fully realised how severe that person's state-of-mind had become. Last month I rested my hand on the shoulder of two female friends... Continue Reading →
Casey, Your Knees Will Not Stop You!
I feel for Casey Neistat, I actually do. According to his latest video: His left knee creaks when he kneels. Presumably it is more noticeable when he runs. So he is concerned that he may never be able to run again. I gave up running about 2 years ago, at least for long distances, because... Continue Reading →
Reach Out to Grab Opportunities
https://youtu.be/Wg_wIH3uvZE What I like most about this video is what you can see happening in the last metre: ~ First and 2nd place slow down, presumably thinking they're so close to their goal that they can casually jog through.

WANT the Canon EF 24-70mm f4 USM
Way back in 2012 I was saying I wanted this lens - the Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8 L II USM. Five years on, I now need the lens. I should have purchased it when I could afford it! Whilst I have many decent lenses, the 24-70mm would and could easily replace them all. With my... Continue Reading →
GO BEYOND YOUR LIMITS! (10 Years on Youtube)
Out of all the YouTube channels I'm subscribed to, Casey Neistat's channel is the only one that I consistently revisit. My YouTube Channel History For the longest time I did almost nothing on YouTube. I remember saying to someone in 2008 - "It's just a fad, it won't last." How wrong was I! Mostly I...

Capturing the Most Ferocious Animals in Australia
For the last four years, pretty much since my first son was born, we've visited Cleland Wildlife Park every Saturday morning. Whilst it's been for the benefit our boys to (1) tire them out for a good night's sleep that night so my wife and I can have a peaceful evening, plus (2) to show... Continue Reading →
We Have Moved to Kangaroo Island
This time last year we made a BIG decision: To move our family to Kangaroo Island. Explaining the benefits to each of our families actually didn't take a lot, but there are a few who have not yet been there. Yesterday morning I videoed some of my morning walk. Because of the tranquillity of Kingscote,... Continue Reading →
