2008 - A Photographic Retrospective
I have put together this year’s collection of my favourite photos in a gallery.
A couple of things -
These are not necessarily my best photos, whatever that means. They definitely are not my most popular photos – in fact, the majority of them have not been seen before. But they are my personal favourites in 2008 (in chronological order), for many and various reasons.
You’ll find many genres, from landscape to street, from floral to abstract. However, many of my favourites cannot be shown, as they were taken for clients who do not give permission for public display. Another bit of trivia – I counted 11 photos that have been cropped. I mention this, because one of the things I enjoy about photography is to frame and compose on site.
Anyway, enjoy. There are a lot of them – 105, I think. Slideshow works best, on black. If you skim through them, I’ll know, and come and eat your cat.

Mark, I am sitting here in awe, your work is really fantastic. I love all of your images. The children and their innocence, full of life and wonder. The problem is unless you know them and have parental approval, we can be misunderstood, very sad. I love the candid street images, and, well, they are all bloody good ! All the best for 2009.
Cheers,
Wayne Pearson

Mark – I’m sure your photos are not just dark squares with numbers – unless its some kind a zen joke. Please enlighten as to how I display the slide show.
