Hotrod Show – Guildford 2013
I love hotrods!
Just some quick edits from the day.
Classic flame pattern
Nice
The reflections caught my eye, was trying to find some detail shots.
Pork Hunt Gun Club. No really, thats what is under the logo.
First shots from my Pentax.
I finished my first 2 rolls of black and white film in the lovely Pentax KX Ben gave me.
I really enjoyed the medium of black and white, it provided a new challenge of trying to see tone instead of colour. Great fun! Of course all the rules of composition still apply and opportunities to break those rules.
Let me know what you think.
Glenbrook skate park.
Lovely fun shot of my girls!

Urbex, Abandoned Driving Range – Penrith
After a wonderful lunch on the Nepean Belle today, I stopped by this driving range and undertake a little bit of urbex.
There were only a couple of windows that weren’t broken, most walls were covered in street art and any fittings/fixtures were broken. All this meant lots of photo opportunities for me!

Bathurst Show, 2013
Some random shots from the show.
I had an absolute ball wandering around with four cameras, two digital and two film. I don’t think that’s obsessive at all!

Mental bucket list.
A shot like this has been on my mental bucket list for awhile.
Alpacas are so cute, especially up close!
Awwwwwww!
Exciting news.
I was awarded a first place today in the photography competition at the Bathurst Show.
I entered four photos in various categories. Pretty exciting, I have never been game enough to enter any competition like this before and was speechless when I saw the first place ribbon on my photo!
This is the winning pic, it is pretty special.
Ibra, one of the children we sponsor in Uganda.
Makes me want to develop my skills more and try other competitions, it has given me a little boost!
Pikes Place Markets, Seattle.
We visited Seattle in 2011 and made sure we stopped by the Pikes Place markets. It is a fantastic market, full of fresh produce, people and neon.
Well worth a visit.
Awesome seafood, very fresh and tempting
Lots of cool neon in the market.
More neon and lots of people.
The famous sign at the entrance of the markets.
Beautiful fresh produce.
Heritage tomatoes.
