Glass Menagerie
Whilst still on my afternoon-trek into the Adelaide CBD, I found the time of day lent me grand opportunity to capture reflections in the newer glass-menagerie's.

Adelaide Panorama

Painting with Children
Last week I was on a five day short holiday with my wife and two nieces. As usual (and you would expect), I photographed about five hundred photographs each day. Mostly of the girls, but those photographs are restricted for family viewing. What I enjoyed photographing most was their artwork, the seascape, landscape, pelicans and... Continue Reading →
Creating Your Life’s Story
A rabbit is in a forest typing his life story. A fox comes along and says, "What are you doing, rabbit?" The rabbit says that he's typing his life story. The fox doesn't believe it, so the rabbit says, "Come in here to the cave, and I'll show you the beginning of it." So the... Continue Reading →
