Originally only my wife, kids and older son's best friend and his mum were going to visit Cape Borda lighthouse without me. But at the last moment my work agreed they didn't need me today. So I grabbed my Canon 70D and Tamron 18-400mm, a loose shirt and wide brimmed hat to join them. Cape... Continue Reading →
My SALA-2016 Photography is STILL on Exhibition!
Do you remember when I exhibited my photography at SALA 2016? Thanks to good friends, at the 11th hour I was asked if I would like to hang artwork that year. With the little savings I had available, I had a few images printed and framed - and on walls at the Catalyst Foundation Adelaide... Continue Reading →
Testing the Tamron 18-400mm
Watch to the end to see the difference between 18mm and 400mm when I photograph the yellow sign stuck on the rocks through to the next beach! https://youtu.be/57r3RX_aJeg
What are the Benefits of Living on Kangaroo Island?
This is just one part of a vlog I have had in creation for a few months now. It's at least a month from completion. What are the Benefits of Living on Kangaroo Island? At the beginning of my December 17th 2017 radio show on 5KIxFM9.07 in Kingscote, Kangaroo Island I asked on our Facebook... Continue Reading →
The Correct Way to Roll the Toilet Paper

I actually planned a timeline showing each of the sections of footage needed to be filmed, plus constructed story boards showing how each would overlay. Doing this helped immensely, and ensured I was able to construct the video in less than two... Continue Reading →
One of My Tripods has Died!
Sometimes I create content which is a little obscure. This short video is about a mini-tripod that has been my favorite vlogging tool for about 2 years. It died earlier this week. Weirdly it was only a few hours after a friend told me about the SMOVE Smartphone Stablizer - which is basically a gimbal.... 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 →
Move Forward, Look Ahead, Stay Focused
"Listen, do you wanna go back, or do you wanna stay here? I get it. It's nice up here. You can just shut down all the systems, turn out all the lights, and just close your eyes and tune out everyone. .... It's safe. I mean, what's the point of going on? What's the point... 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. Yes, they're still going pretty damn fast, but just watch their movements, you'll notice they are... Continue Reading →
