Black and White
I love being able to see very quickly what an image looks like in B&W, I know its not a huge deal but some work better. I know its not the same as film and I kind of miss good B&W film sometimes but it will suffice for now.

This seems to be my favourite from the trip to Mornington today, even if it is obviously heavily post processed.

HRAFF complete
Today I finished the shooting for HRAFF. I've seen some very heat wrenching films and heard some great insight into human rights issues across the world. I would have liked to done more but there is only so much time in the day. My next task is to sort through the images I've taken process them and send them back to the festival for their use. I look forward to next year.

Roman Back Street
Old school... scanned from film. This trip in 2003 was the catalyst for for love of photography and I now have the technology to get it all out to the world.. just how much more time can I spend behind a computer is the question.

New Gallery
After recently buying adobe lightroom 2.0 and playing for a little while, I have arrived at this which is a real improvement on my previous attempts at gallery creation. I'd like to thank Ourmanintokyo and Burning Stone Cold for technical support

Flinders Lane
I always love the feel on Flinders Lane, for some reason it feels like another city, much different to the rest of the streets in Melbourne.

Packaging hard copies
I am trying to figure out an effective method of packaging prints or postcards which I will to presenting at this new market but I am coming up slightly blank, does anyone have any suggestions ? Predominantly the prints will be small A4 A5 with the odd larger one. I am thinking something along the lines of plastic envelopes with card inside as a backing but this seems kind of standard, there must be another way.

Theft
My wife's computer was stolen, with all her recent PhD research and a whole load of my photos on it... not so good. Thankfully it was fully insured, So we will get a new one soon. On a more positive note I am going to be a part of the new Fitzroy market.. will write more when I know what I'm doing with it. The market at this point is not fully defined and there isn't a launch date but it will be a great way to get more exposure.

Please leave me a comment with some feedback (either way) if you regularly read my blog, I need some affirmation please

Blue Skies
I took the day off between jobs to set the tone for the near future and took quite a few photos.... this is one. I'm hoping that now I can regularly update this blog with photos hopefully at least weekly, having so much spare time as I do now.

Church
I have walked past this church for ten years and have never been inside. For five years I have photographed the exterior. Today I finally got inside and took a couple of the interior, not the greatest shots ever but it was good to shoot in the church. There must be some latent religosity in me beacause it felt a bit wrong. The shots are the greatest I hope be able to over come my fear or paranoia and shoot inside this church proficiently soon

We haven't worked out where exactly I'm going with this project yet but its an exciting opportunity. Pictures start soon

550am Queens Parade
I have really been enjoying the fact that my job requires me to be up and out of the house before six am recently. Due to the on set of winter temperatures have plummeted and the fog has arrived. Morning scenes are very evocative, can't stop shooting. Although I have been neglecting to charge my camera and this morning I ran out of juice... but I will be charged and ready to go for tomorrow
