Not often I give myself a plug - but - this was such a nice letter, I wanted to crow a little:

Hi Mark,

I was planning on replying to you this morning, but things got busy at work.

And thanks for your kind words about my family and little ********.

Yes, I have looked at the photos and they are fantastic.

It is exactly what we were after. The detail and clarity of the shots is great,
and you have been able to capture things which we were not privy to,
due to us being busy doing other things …

I was commissioned to photograph the Antipodes Festival in Melbourne last week, for archival/historical/promotional purposes. If PJ/Street-ish photography interests you, have a look. If not, you may get bored quickly :)
All comments welcome.

Tulips (and a few other things...)

Posted over 2 years ago

It has been a long time since I’ve shot for myself, and it was a pleasure to stroll through the tulips a few weeks ago. Tonight, I actually had time to go through them, and appreciate the wonderful things again.

I used a combination of a 50mm f1.4, a 100mm macro, and a 70-200mm f/2.8 IS. I purposefully limited myself to each of these lenses for an equal amount of time, without changing, the…

What have I been doing?

Posted over 2 years ago

As many may have noticed, I have not been very active on RB of late.
This is due to a very large workload which involves shooting, as well as image preparation. I have very little time to spare, and 99% of my work is copyrighted to clients – so I am unable to display it publicly.

However – should anyone be particularly interested in what I’ve been doing photographically, request …

Sugarloaf Reservoir

Yesterday, Caroline Gorka and myself went for a little shooting trip to Sugarloaf Reservoir. It has been months since I’ve been shooting ‘for myself’, with workloads steadily increasing, and I was looking forward to a nice relaxing time. It is a 45min drive from CBD, roughly, and we stopped by Kangaroo Grounds Cemetery along the way. A nice country cemetery, and I love these p…

Antipodes Festival

Posted almost 3 years ago

I’ve been very busy working, and so have not uploaded any photos for a long time. I feel a little guilty, so here is batch of photos of the Antipodes Festival in Melbourne. I was booked to shoot the festival, and had a great time doing it.

Lots of photos – feel free to skim through them…

Cheers

Forum-speak

Posted almost 3 years ago

There has been an in-depth discussion in the forums, where, amongst other things, I’ve discovered that some people do not feel confident or comfortable discussing/debating/suggesting things. They feel they get dominated or bullied, that people are too agressive, and that basically – they’d rather stay away.

This is a shame, and has got me thinking.

We are an artist community. An…
