Focusing on where to go next

Taking a look at a painting by Melbourne Artist Rick Amor

Facebook loves video, apparently, so I have been trying to do more. Which then brings another problem, what do I do videos of?
Monday is a quiet day
Sunday got away from me and I didn’t get a chance to get an image done. I do have one now, it was taken on Saturday morning of Flinders Street Station.

Silent Sunday: Wide Cityscape
An early morning trip into the city yesterday and I was experimenting with the 14-24mm for some long exposures. It was different and not what I usually use, but I think there is going to […]
