2:14am, Why Am I Here?

Part Of my 2:14am Series

Self Portrait

It was 2:14am, I was on my way home but Had a slight craving for a smoke, I didn’t want to go home and waste the Amazing Misty night we were having so I went to the park round the corner. I don’t sleep so I stayed there for an hour or so, 20minutes of taking shots, 40 of just sitting, thinking about life and its incomprehensible way of functioning.

    People say us dreamers tend to wonder and lose track of time. I think of it more as trying to find something you’re not sure you’ve lost or need, eg. This picture and the many i got this night.

    This is brilliant, there’s aura and raw feeling in this scene. cold but warm, empty but content with the situation. Love it.

    very moody piece. i especially love the bits of glistening grass in the right bottom corner of the frame. for me, they somehow complete the photo and add to the dreamlike mood.

    This photo is amazing. I live in Warragul and was very touched in my surrounding areas from the fires, this is an incredible shot, I’m assuming it was from Black Saturday?
