Private Jetty

A view from one of the many corners of Queenslake, I quite liked the funky cloud formations and the mirroring effect on the horizon.

'cause, the world gets fuzzy

Love at first sight

Snail to Snail.

Chaos and I were gonna rearrange these plastic snails, but there were to many people around..and they are actually really heavy.

(how funny would it be to see one mounting the other?!, yeah I know immature..)

In memory of the Breitling Wing Walker Jane Wicker who died in June this year

Even the mildest aircraft incident could result in death for a wing walker, let alone any type of crash.

These women make it look easy, but very few spectators appreciate the danger they put themselves in every flight, two hats off to ya ladies.

This image was taken early this year at Avalon Airshow.

yep, definitely Monday again, that means monochrome madness and a military Monday ;)

Blending the sweet lines of the F22, this thing has more curves than Mariah Carey.

the hardest thing is deciding whether to shoot from the rear or the side 🙂 or even just smack front on.

The smooth side of Maroubra

I was searching for a monochrome image that I had in my head this morning, this was as close to it as i could get – what I really wanted was a super minimalist BW seascape, oh well will have to go out again, dang 😉

Grass

This image reminds me of being 12 years old and spending summer days wading through grass like this on a 40 degree day, how I got through childhood in one piece is beyond me 🙂

Monochrome madness, trying to visualize Black and white images is one very difficult task for me – if anyone has hints or tips on 'seeing' that BW composition I am all ears…

The tide has turned

There are probably a few things that can make pregnancy miserable, but i reckon getting the flu is probably up there with some of the best, compounding the continuous toilet breaks, the back pain, the discomfort, the sore legs, the list goes on – and to top it all off, the only thing you can take is paracetamol 🙂 it is true that men will never understand the hardship that is pregnancy and i for thank goodness i never have too. At least I get to take some drugs for the flu 🙂

Kudos to my partner Sarah for doing a stellar job whilst pregnant and having one of the worse flus we have ever gotten. Oh and also for taking 5 minutes to have a picture taken 😉
