Tranquility in a sea of Sydney.

Solving the cost of living pressures, one task at a time…..
damn inflation has been rough, had to chop all the hair off to save on shampoo and conditioner 😉

Beating the Storm.
A fun night out with some members of the Dee Why RSL Camera Club and the Rodinator (Rodney Campbell) smashing some light around 🙂

Girrakool Falls

Seriously, whaddya mean I’m not old enough to ride the bike ?

Crazy.

These fisherman looked at me like i was crazy and I looked at them like they were crazy.. i mean who gets up at the crack of dawn to go and throw a fishing line off the rocks 🙂

One thing we did agree on tho, it was certainly a very nice morning to be out, barely any swell, low tide, perfect temperature and crystal clear water…

Cape Banks.

Remember.
In recent times when we have visited Little Bay, Chaos has taken to spending time on a rock talking to the little boy who died here a couple of years ago. Its positive to know they can feel such empathy 🙂 and they do have quite the conversations apparently…

Pick the single.

One of the neat things about lightpainting is that the processing is pretty easy, most shots are just a single image with an exposure varying from 5 to 15 minutes. However its can be fun to smash a few shots from the session together and see what happens.

Here’s a couple from a series with Rodney Campbell trying to split his balls.

Pick the shot which is a single exposure 🙂

Keep Calm..
and be more like the Queen…

Big square boat booty.
still looks very small on a very large ocean.

Tailings Dam.
Lake Munmorah.

Tracked.
Could be lake Eyre if you squinted enough.

Inflated.

So let me get this right, the prices of stuff goes up ’cause of bad stuff that happens, like floods, wars, increased fuel prices and power costs … and then we thump average plebs with mortgages with higher interest rates which causes them to pay more money to banks so that they have less money to spend on stuff…less demand reduces prices ?

surely we have some more sophisticated ‘levers’ to pull then this right – i’m sure there is a shitload of smart economists out there which could figure out a more 21st century method…

The more i read about economics, the more i realise that we sure as hell do not live in a free-market nor a true capitalist market, there are so many skews, ‘levers’, policies and too many people making money from producing nothing or exploiting ‘loopholes’ note, just because ‘you can’ does not make it right.

on a positive note, i do note that my hummus at woolies has reduced in price from 9.50 bucks down to 8 bucks which is only 0.50 bucks higher than where it was 12 months ago… still trying to figure out why, prolly more due to Aldi selling it at 8 bucks then woolies using their kindness of their hearts to reduce prices when cost to shelf has reduced 🙂 🙂

Bendy and the Ink Machine
New set location, Jervis Bay, St George Lighthouse 🙂
