Gear Freak (speculations on the future)
A recent new release from Hassleblad has got me kind of excited so thought I might share my musings for all you gear freaks out there.
The new camera is the Hassleblad H3dII-50 (link is to the 39 megapixel version). It has a 36×48mm 50 megapixel sensor which is kind of impressive but the thing that excites me is the mu…
Calendars
Always a thrill when someone thinks enough of your work to hang it on their walls so I just thought I’d share my joy in selling four calendars this week.

Eventful
Hi all,
Thought some of you may be interested in an upcoming exhibition I’ll be holding on the 6-8th of December at Blackburn Lake Visitors centre. I’ll have framed prints, cards, calendars and my new Prom book available. Only just booked it so I’ll announce more specific details as they come to hand.

100,000 Thankyou's
Yes you guessed it I’ve finally reached the 6 figure mark. Joined the bub exactly 1 year and eight months ago today and have been completely blown away by the support I’ve had, friends I’ve met and inspiration I’ve received from the many amazing artists here.

The long hard road to Recovery
On Saturday 7th of Febuary 2009, Melbourne temperatures hit a record high of 46.4 °C (115.5 °F) the hottest temperature ever recorded in an Australian capital city, humidity was as low as 6% and winds in excess of 100km were recorded. At 11:20 the first fires were spotted by the time they were extinguished over a month and a half later 173 people had died, 3,500 buildings were destroyed and 450…
Jeremy and Willie get the double trifecta
A couple of weeks ago Jeremy and Willie caused a minor stir by accidentally hitting the home page for the third time. Such a burden to be the cause of such controversy… lol.
And today (26/8/09) Jeremy and Willie won it’s third challenge in the Style! Class! Elegance! Excellence! groups, Best People Image...

New Toy Joy!
Been saving madly since I got my 5DmkII to complete my lens setup with a EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM. Last week it all came together when I sold a few things on ebay and then lucked upon an auction for a used lens which is the first one I’ve seen in the last six months that ended up below 2G. I got it today and it’s in immaculate condition, not a scratch or wear mark anywhere on the lens’ or body….

Hi All,
Further to my Flickr journal post I’ve decided that a web presence is a good way to promote your work so I’ve decided to set up shop as it were in a few other places as well. So if you have a presence on any of these other sites and want to drop by and say hello it would be a pleasure to make your acquaintance ther…
Flickr?
I’m probably behind the times but I’ve been thinking about Flickr a bit lately. To date my inclination has been why?
I take my photography fairly seriously and have spent a massive amount of time and money creating a library of what I hope are quality images. I therefore like to offset these investments in avenues that can see some sort of return on this effort.
I have seen flickr as a …
