I've had a lot of fun over the last few days shooting lots of shots of hills and yards at family homes around Adelaide - then stitching them together into 180degree, 270degree and a few 360degree panoramas! Here are just a few the results. If you look at the large version of the pano below,... Continue Reading →
Night Photography in Adelaide
Here are my midnight-photographs, shot on the 23rd December 2009. It was a very hot night, and somewhat warmer inside the house! Since my wife was still making chocolate delights for Xmas day, I went for a walk with my camera and tripod. Check out what I found in the darkness: 1. Some interesting abstract... Continue Reading →
Panoramas from 2007
These are two panorama's of photographs I photographed way back in January 2007. But at that time I had no knowledge of decent software that could correctly stitch them together. Recently a good friend introduced me to Autopano Pro, the best and easiest program for creating Panorama's. So this is the first time these photographs... Continue Reading →
SocADL, Live at the Tivoli
Yes, I was there. I went to the #SocADL meeting at the Tivoli a couple of nights back. I was the bloke who piped up about the less-than-delightful joys of club involvement, suggesting #SocADL should remain informal — bound by our online banter and interaction, rather than bogged down in regulations, procedures, or government red...

Successfully Shooting Zombies in Adelaide
Early in October I had the good fortune to be there when the Adelaide Zombies walked through the CBD. The photographs below show where I found them on East Terrace and the amazing young Zombies who were most willing to be photographed. I enjoyed being able to walk with them down Rundle Street, through Rundle... Continue Reading →
How Kids Survived the Last Fifty Years
This is how it was before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good. When we were kids there were no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets. As infants & children, we would ride in cars...

Vegemite on Toast
I couldn't help myself: I had to photograph my lunch - Vegemite on Toast! But since it was vegemite on toast, I felt it prudent to reveal that I'll only ever the ORIGINAL vegemite. None of this 'spread-previously-known-as-isnack2.0' for me, I am a happy little original vegemite eater! What is your favourite Australian food?
Currumbin Sanctuary Train, QLD
During our recent visit to Queensland, we spent a day at Currumbin Sanctuary ... where we rode train around the animal enclosures.
The Austin A70 Hampshire Utility
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 →
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...
