Don't Wear New Shoes

Posted about 1 month ago

That’s what I figured out this afternoon.

Anyhow, I’ve been pretty busy really between work and uni. Well, uni is on break and I was made redundant at work so now I have a bit of spare time until I find a new job and start back at uni. I’d barely taken photos for ages and this afternoon despite there being nothing really happening in the sky I made a last minute decision to take…

Hi!

Well can you believe it? It’s that time again! Next weekend I’ll be participating in my fourth Relay For Life, and my third with the folks at The Legion.

I Ain't Dead

Posted almost 2 years ago

I’ve just been rather busy, and not taking photos as much as I’d like.
In addition to work, I’m now studying full time at QUT, a Bachelor of Creative Industries. I’m really enjoying it, but it does take up a lot of time, and at the moment it’s leaving me pretty exhausted in my spare time. This translates to very little activity on RB and other places around the net.

Macro Reverse Ring

Posted over 2 years ago

I got one!

Basically it’s a small ring which mounts onto the camera body on one side, and on the other side has a reverse filter thread.
The upshot of this is you can turn your lens around (in this case my 50mm f/1.8) and attach it to the camera, and through some physics hocus pocus, you have a macro lens.

It’s bloody cheap when compared to an actual macro lens.

Downside? Well, no focu…

Apples and Grapes

Posted over 2 years ago

A friend posted a ‘funny email’ to me today, she said it’s funny because it’s true.

“Women are like apples on trees, the best ones are on the top of the tree. The men don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and don’t want to get hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren’t so good but easy. So…
