I don't get many chances to shoot night photography. So when I do, I have fun. It's always about seeing how I can shoot architecture and people in either an abstract or enlightened way' Check out all my night photo's shot over the last six years, all displayed upon my Flickr Gallery. This last one... Continue Reading →
Bicycles in Adelaide
We are all enduring that time of the Adelaide calendar when bicycles encircle the Adelaide city & descend from the surrounding hills for the SANTOS Tour Down Under. So I felt it time to wheel out my photographs of two-wheeled non-motorised cyclists, professional and amateur, enjoying riding purely for the fun of it! Last but not... Continue Reading →
Capturing Architectural History through Photography
Much earlier this evening, as I was traversing the Adelaide CBD seeking a bus to escape the ropes of employment, I spotted the remains of a non-heritage building. The demolition crew were surveying the fine mess they had made, the dust settling around them ... so I took the moment to sneak a few photos... Continue Reading →
Keeping My Creative Spirit and Grit Alive
Earlier this morning, I got to thinking about moments for photographs that are stuck in my mind, yet I have not had the opportunity to return with a camera to capture them. One of them is a fog-covered and very wet parcel of land in the corner of a paddock. The view in my head... Continue Reading →
Photographs at the Adelaide Clipsal500 2012
Have you seen my photographs from day 1 and 3 of the 2012 Adelaide Clipsal500? I didn't shoot as many as I have done in previous years. I feel they didn't have enough for the average punter who wanted to eat and go on show-rides, or check out the various car-brand marquees. There was about... Continue Reading →
Photographs of Adelaide City
Before heading out to the Lady Daly last night, I had 40minutes spare to take a walk around Adelaide City whilst waiting for my ride. So I walked down Rundle Mall and back up Grenfell Street. Here are my favorite of the many photographs I shot.... Yes, an eclectic bunch of photographs that simply appealed... Continue Reading →
Dinner and Drinks at the Lady Daly
My wife and I attended her work's belated-Christmas-2011 dinner last night (28 January 2012), held at the Lady Daly Hotel. I've not been there in over 12 years, back when the family of an old friend owned the place. So it was interesting to see how much the hotel has changed since. And it has,... Continue Reading →
Street Photography in 2012
In 2012, I was drawn to the idea of capturing the multi-dimensional views of Adelaide's inner city architecture through street photography. My goal was to showcase the intricate relationship between the city's built environment and the bustling life that unfolds within it. With every photograph, I aimed to transcend the conventional portrayal of cityscapes, delving... Continue Reading →
Hand Rearing a Magpie
This baby magpie was found at the foot of a tree on family property in the Adelaide Hills. It's presumed it fell out of the family nest. It will be hand-reared until it can fly back to its family. Whilst some might think the natural cycle of animals would have culled this fallen magpie, the mother... Continue Reading →
Donating Photography for a Worthy Cause
I am donating three framed photographs! These are from the 20 that I exhibited during my SALA 2010 exhibition, to a silent auction at my day job. One of my work colleagues at my day-job is participating in SuperCycle 2012. What is this all about? Most of us would know somebody who has been affected... Continue Reading →
An Evening with Kristen Weaver
Last night (05.Sept.2011), I had the good fortune to hear Kristen Weaver speak about the last two years of her photographic journey - between amateur and photographic stardom! I arrrived at the venue about 6pm, but PW's were not opening the doors until 6.45pm. So I stood and waited. The reason I tell you this is because it... Continue Reading →
Photographs of South Australia
I have a few locations on the internet where I display my South Australia Prints. Most recently I have been uploading a LOT of my landscape, scenery and geography photographs shot around the Adelaide hills and upon Kangaroo Island. I encourage you to check out my many photographs upon Fine Art America gallery to consider... Continue Reading →
