Tasmania – Tasman Island Boat Cruise
Before we left for Tasmania we knew we had two days to spend in Port Arthur. We had planned all along to go to the Port Arthur Historical Site, but that still left a day […]
Being a risk taker – infrared photography
Most of you know that by now I have had one of my old cameras converted to be an infrared camera. It wasn’t a new idea, I had considered it once before when I first […]
A quiet Cityscape
This image was taken a few weeks when I had a loan of the Canon 5D Mark IV with the 16-35mm 2.8 lens. I was trying it out for long exposure photography and while I […]
Floral Friday
Only one flower today, I’m afraid I’ve been a bit slack with the macros this week. I’ve been busy and I have the Canon 5D4 I need to play with before it goes back. However, […]
Long exposure with the Canon 5D Mark IV
The other day I mentioned that I have a loan of the Canon 5D Mark IV and the 16-35mm 2.8 lens. I am trying them out with long exposures to see what I think. I […]
A Shearing Shed
Those of you that have been following me for a long time will have seen what is in today’s image many times. I’m up at the mallee visiting my mother again and to get my […]
Social Media – Steller

Winter Wonderland at Sovereign Hill
Over the weekend I took a trip to Ballarat to visit Sovereign Hill, an outdoor museum showing how it was during the Gold Rush of the 19th century. My daughter wanted to go and see […]
If is a little word, but it can mean big things
Camera gear is important if you want to take photos, and over the years you change with what you are taking photos off, along with how. I thought it might be fun to take a […]
A fisheye in the city
I’ve spent the last two days with my Californian friends and it has been so much fun showing them around Melbourne. I am also really excited about our trip down to the Great Ocean Road […]
Finding inspiration with reality television
From the start I just want to say that I am not a big one for reality television shows, but there are a couple that I find good and will watch. Though there are particulars […]
Some flowers from Alowyn Gardens
Last weekend I showed you some photos of the grounds at Alowyn Gardens and I said I would show you some of the flowers. I forgot until Julie mentioned it, so thought I should do […]
A winter trip to Alowyn Gardens
This afternoon a friend picked me up so we could go to Alowyn Gardens in Yarra Glen for some macro photography. I am still trying out the Samyang 100mm lens and thought it would be […]
Tales by Light
Recently on Netflix I saw a program that I think all photographers should see. The show is called Tales by Light, and is an Australian production, though the photographers are from all around the world. […]
A new Wacom Tablet
A couple of weeks ago I spoke about how I wanted to get another Wacom tablet that I could use when I go away, and last week I managed to get a look at the […]
Changing things up
For quite some time I’ve really struggled with how I should do this blog. I’ve been at a loss and everything I try seems to take so much time, or is similar to other work […]
Light trails into the city
A couple of weeks ago I showed an image and did a little talk on it, and I want to continue doing that when I can, so today I have another image for you. It […]
