A Quick Look at Lake Albacutya
Here I am up in the Mallee again and I’m trying to get out and take photos as much as I can. Yesterday I got to go out to Lake Albacutya and have a look […]
Love to be by the seaside
Last week I was given an opportunity to spend a night down at St Leonards. I’m teaching a woman there and she kindly offered to let me stay overnight with her. St Leonards is a […]
When planned outings don’t go to plan
The other day I went out with a friend and we had a whole day planned of what we were going to do. Then once we got there we found that the waterfall we had […]
Photos from the Past
One of the things that I have really been enjoying has been looking at photos that were done a while ago. Being fairly new to Instagram, or should I say being more serious about it […]
Long Exposures at Docklands
In the last week I’ve spent several hours at Docklands here in Melbourne, on separate days teaching people how to do long exposure photography. It has been quite interesting showing people how to do it […]
Eureka Tower in Monochrome and Then with a touch of colour
As I usually do with long exposures images I started by making the image of the Eureka Tower monochrome, then I wondered what it would be like with a touch of colour. The gold windows […]
Lighting Up Flinders Street Station
Sometimes you really are in the right place at the right time. It doesn’t happen to me very often, but last night, well, I was so happy to see the light that was shining onto […]
New York Night Lights
Trying to put up fresh photos every day, or rather at least one is a challenge. I’m lucky I have lots of photos that I can go back and use, but still, sometimes when looking […]
Silent City
In the last couple of weeks I seem to be spending more and more of my time in the city taking photos. I really want to try some new things, and I know the images […]
Empty Alley in Melbourne
The other morning I went for a walk around part of the city I haven’t really explored before. I was looking for a good empty alley in the city. I saw lots of empty lanes and […]
When it is Summer and Hot
In Australia we get quite extreme temperatures in the summer and that also makes it very hard to take photos. The light is harsh, the shadows are very dark, as well as sharp. There is […]
Finding Abandoned Homes
Driving around the countryside in Victoria, Australia, you are bound to come across old homes that are home to no one anymore. Some of them are easy to get to, while others you need to […]
Manhattan Skyline
The other day I had to do some work on a image unexpectedly and as I was doing some basic work to it, I wondered. So I decided to see what I could do with […]
Salt Pans by the Side of the Road
Previously I’ve spoken about the salt pans up around Swan Hill and in the Mallee, but today I have some more photos to show you. They are ones that I have done more processing too. […]
Finding Inspiration on a Friday
We hear about inspiration everywhere and to do what we do, we have to have some kind of inspiration. What I think is inspiring won’t be the same for you, and vice versa. If we know […]
Eureka Skydeck 88: Melbourne from on Top
The other night I was given an opportunity to go up to the Eureka Skydeck 88 and take photos from the 88th floor. It isn’t an easy place to do that. You are behind two […]
Empty Environments
Recently, since my return from the US, I’ve been doing a lot more work on my photos. I used excuses before, but I am starting to see that it is something I have to do, […]
Visiting the Pioneer Settlement in Swan Hill
Today it has been really hot here. To say that our visit to Swan Hill and the Pioneer Settlement was silly is an understatement. Really not a great place to be when it is so […]
More from Melbourne on My Wanderings
Yesterday I posted a blog post on my other site showing some images from my venture in the city of Melbourne the other day. It is my intention to continue working on a few images […]
Riverside Park in New York
On my trip to the US I didn’t have a lot of time to really spend on my images and doing things to them the way I really wanted to. I also didn’t have the […]
