Most Australians would know by now that BORDERS are in liquidation. As an avid book reader, I am dismayed by this, yet am thankful we have other great book suppliers in Adelaide. (Dymocks and Angus&Robertson to name a few!) Despite knowing about the liquidation a few months ago, it wasn't until tonight that I actually... Continue Reading →
Photographer vs Smoker
Intriguingly, from where this photo was taken, nobody cares. Yet I am standing on in the middle of a road. To the right is the Adelaide General Post Office and behind me is public area on the corner Victoria Square. Adelaide people will know it. But from the ground beneath that green glass building, security... Continue Reading →
Five Different Views of the Adelaide CBD
Way back in March of this year I went for a slow walk around the Adelaide CBD, all alone. This might seem odd to some people, but our inner city is only 1mile squared and mostly a ghost town around the edges. Aha, you can walk down lanes and alleys without anyone bothering you -...

Rotunda on Elder Park
On a regular basis I take long photo-walks alone in the Adelaide CBD. These often involve a walk around Elder Park and onto the Rotunda. Here are two of the photographs I shot in mid 2010.

Since it is highly improbable that the aged pair of flamingo's we have remaining will ever breed, one can only hope the Zoo... Continue Reading →
I Own the Twitter Fail Whale
Yeah, that's right, I own the 'Fail Whale'! Or rather, just one of the whales. And it's not as big as we all thought it would be - because this local stationery store has them by the bucket-load, sitting on a shelf, waiting for twitter-nerds like myself. Here you can see mine: No, they don't... Continue Reading →
A Photo-Opportunity on New-Years-Eve!
Some days life takes unexpected directions! Last night at 5.14pm I left a message on Twitter and Facebook that read ... "In this heat, leave the house? I ain't going anywhere! Forget the pubs, I am going to enjoy a few drinks at home in front the open fridge." It was 42 degrees for a... Continue Reading →
Our Adelaide Hills Backyard
Nestled in the Adelaide Hills, our family home provides a sanctuary amidst the urban hustle. Beyond the city's concrete jungle, our abode is surrounded by gum-tree filled forests, creating an illusion that nature stretches endlessly. Suburban life here is a blend of lush greenery, winding creeks, and picturesque pathways - offering a refreshing escape for... Continue Reading →
