This print has won Highly Commended at the Muswellbrook Photographic Awards 2007, commended in August 2008 Digital Photography + Design and a merit during a photo competition judged by David Oliver.

For the month of August I have 20 copies at $20. The print is on A4 Museo Silver Rag using K3 pigment inks. Larger sizes are also available, just enquire and I will be happy to assist.

Prints available here.

As Kjell wrote why not enjoy both colour and B&W.

By far one of my most requested pictures for printing is this one. The colours and composition still work for me and while they do I will continue to sell it here.

Daylight Saving time ended last weekend for us in NSW, Australia. The half yearly ritual of changing times to be enjoyed by all.

A very hectic week this week so I have not and will not start until some time next week. My posts here will also be a bit light on for content.

Last night in a state of exhaustion I made the decision to photograph an old Masonic school grounds. It is a short bike ride from home and a nice place to spin the wheels. The area has something like 16 old school houses and is built on a gently sloping hill.

Most of the buildings are now rented by small organisations or clubs, there is a local radio station, a pottery class, child minding, model railway club and a few others I cannot recall. The more I think about it the more I am happy with the decision to photograph this area and to be starting a project.

Gordon McGregor has created a Yahoo pipes thing so you can keep up to date with the many people writing about their own experiences, cool.

I am not sure why I keep coming back to this picture, I'll live with it for a while and figure it out, possibly not.

I did not realise I was on private property until I had left this area.

Here are a small group of sandstone textures, you couldn't really call this a project, to few pictures, not much variation and most importantly I am not exploring anything.
I really have to get my mind into a project, begin it and not procastinate, that means at some stage finish it.

Go here to purchase any as prints.

Antique Jogger, 2007

This is one of my favourites from 2007. Is there anyone that does not need a soundtrack to everything they do?

this is Ian, he lives across the road from me and is the kind man that let me stay in his holiday home in Toowoon Bay while I worked in that area. I found it easier to stay away from home one night a week than have to travel the 160km round trip two days in a row.
It was quite a good opportunity to walk along beaches and lakes collecting pictures, I have not done it this year but may do so again for that reason.
