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.

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 →
