Merry Christmas everyone
It is that time of the year again. I wish I could say I was prepared, but now that it is Christmas morning I realise I wasn’t. I mean I had all the shopping for […]
Going away for two days after 2 years at home
The recent trip to Port Campbell was meant as a way to get out again, but also to experiment with new gear. I did do that with the Tamron lens, and I got to really […]
First look at some photos taken with the Tamron along the coast
I’m back from my trip to the Great Ocean Road, well really just around Port Campbell. I’m so glad we went when we did, especially as this new variant omicron, it was good to do […]
Heading away with new gear
Recently I was loaned the Tamron 18mm to 300mm lens for the Fujifilm camera. I was so excited because it is the first lens that Tamron has done for the mirrorless Fujifilm cameras.
Burning – Documentary on the worst bushfire season in Australia
Before Covid happened Australia experienced the worst season of bushfires, or wildfires, ever. It wasn’t a surprise to some, but the enormity of it all was a massive surprise and wake call to everyone.
Looking at old gear
The Fujifilm macro lens is going back this week and I have to get back to using my old gear for macro photography. One of the things that has been hanging around for a few […]
Trying to make Christmas more environmentally friendly
When it comes down to it, I’m not sure how possible this is, but I know there are some things we can do to help.
Trying the Fujifilm macro lens
I have been loaned the Fujifilm XF80mmF2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro lens again, but this time I am trying to decide if I really want it.
The dahlias are planted
It is that time of the year. I’ve been out in the garden a lot in the last few weeks, and there will be more posts on that to come. However, while I was weeding […]
Getting the garden ready
As I said the other day I’ve been spending a lot of time in the garden. I really want the garden to work. There is nothing like being able to walk outside and pick what […]
Right now it is all about the garden
Spring has sprung and it is full speed ahead for the garden getting it ready for summer.
We had an earthquake
Can you believe that? I mean we can hardly believe it and there were several million people thinking the same way. Australia doesn’t get earthquakes.
Trying more food photography
Do you know what one of the biggest problems with doing food photography?
Trying different ways to be creative
Well, here we go again, we are back in lockdown. We have been this way for a few weeks now. I am finding that when we go into lockdown I have a tendency to shut […]
Pre-planning trips, or trying too
How many times have you gone somewhere to take photos and then realised that it was the wrong time of the day, or the wrong season, or the wrong something?
Photography in lockdown
It is an interesting concept and one that I spoke about in my last post. When you are in lockdown trying to work out what to do can be hard.
Same old, same old
It really is feeling that way right now. We are, once again, in lockdown. No surprise really and I think I’m feeling a lot better about it than I did the last one. Mainly, I […]
How much is an image worth?
One question I’ve been asked a lot is how much will it cost to buy one of my images. Another question is how much should I charge for my images.
Sometimes it isn’t worth getting out of bed
We all know that saying and really sometimes it is so true. That is how I felt on a trip into the city recently to take some photos.
Winter in the Garden
It has been so cold around here and we have had so many frosts. It is surprising that anything is growing, but growing it is.
