    Many thanks to everyone involved in running and moderating the Adelaide/South Australia group. To Stephen for getting it started and to our other five moderators. Special thanks to Reflexio for ringing the Advertiser regarding our current comp and trying to promote RB and the group. As a result my image Salt Pan was featured in colour in todays Advertiser along with a story on the plight of the River Murray. Great exposure for RB and the group. So from me (some 400 k’s away from Adelaide) thanks for all you do and for helping to promote our work. Steve

  • On the second weekend of November 2008 a group of Bubblers wandered into the town of Mannum, on the Mighty Murray River. Most of them were South Aussies, with one supagroovy Bubbler from Tassie. We had a total of 20 including the 3 Bubblers who visited from very very early Saturday morning until late that night. The really wonderful and friendly Bubblers who attended were Photoj, Danni, Jim, Elphonline, Beautiful Valley, Suzanne, Patapping, Mtapping, Bombamermaid, Tamarama, Bill, PrincessBren and AndyGii, plus the adoring family members that tagged along out of pure love! Not one to wake easily, I didn’t get up before the birds to take photos of the sun waking up. Most of the others did though (that’s dedication for you). / I’d say thousands (altogether) of photos were taken of various old cottages, leanto’s which looked like Joliffe created them, steam driven paddleboats, local wildlife (and tamelife… Mum Possom, her baby and her friend all seemed to enjoy that banana!!), sunrises, sunsets, water, clouds, people sitting, people standing, people eating, people chatting (about cameras!! Surprise surprise!!) and of course, people taking photos! And loads more things too!! My budding photographer didn’t want to know about the camera until we were packing up. He saw the tripod (that I hardly ever use) and spent ages playing with the various bits on it. He then decided he wanted to actually take some photos, not just play with the tripod!! Good thing I emptied the memory card first, or he wouldn’t have been able to take any! What else? I’ve found that not only do I have to save for a digital SLR, but I have to save for a Christmas in July AND a bubbler holiday on a houseboat!! How awful!! I’ll have to wait until after March or April to decide if I can do them both or not… well after Christmas! I’ve got it all bookmarked in Safari though ;D I didn’t get any painting or drawing done, but I did come home so relaxed that I felt really weird. I had no idea what the strange calm feeling was until I was chatting (bragging) to Belladonna on the phone and she said I sounded so relaxed! So thank you everyone for helping me become relaxed!!!! I hope it lasts longer than just a day ;D Thank you, all of you, for such a wonderful weekend!! / xx / GG

    This is me!!! Nobody else was home, so I had to make do with using the mirror!! But at least it sort of worked ;D Here’s the garden too… Its so much like a real backyard with a veggie patch and rainwater tank!!! Green tank of course! Even all the concrete frogs and cats look happier ;D The veggie patch… includes pretty little weeds with pink flowers growing wherever they like on the pavers, plus tomatoes, spinach, phacelia and pansies!! / At the foot of those ratbag kitties is a frog encouraging all to grow!! / I have another frog like this one… he says ‘I tried but it died’. Doesn’t make a pretty picture as its in a dead pot plant (says it all really). Now you have seen my haven ;D

    SaharaBelle is a new member to RB, but not much of a writer. Because I like her work (both in the kitchen :D and with a camera), I’m showing you some her amazing photography. Thankfully SaharaBelle made a few comments during the upload process – so I’ll divulge these with you. Basically, this post serves as an easy way for our family and friends to quickly see all the cards of her amazing photography. There will be more soon. In fact, some of my collection will moving across. Yes, I took credit for her work … with her permission! But now she is a member, she wants them back. Anyway, here are all the cards of our recent visit to the Wittunga National Park. I encourage people to leave nice comments on her work. Or critique’s. We’re always looking for extra help on how to take a better photograph! You might recognise this photograph! I cropped this one to a square image to make her avatar. I love this photograph … it’s so vibrant and almost blinding! What do you think?! / “This one will make a great Christmas card!”. Her words after this uploaded. / I suggested this shot – because she had the Macro-lens. It turned out a lot better than I ever expected. It helps that SaharaBelle made sure the blue sky was in the background of these shots, thereby allowing a lot more light to come through the ‘field of focus’. / Nice shadows in this one. The yellow stamen look like antenna … don’t they? / Hehe, nature’s feather duster! I suspect it would leave more pollen than it would remove! / I just love how this is the colours of the Australian flag! / This little bee is getting his money’s worth of nectar… / It took a while to think of a suitable title. But this choice works well. / Sometimes the title’s are just so apt. Yet come out of nowhere. / I originally suggested “Toilet Brush”, but apparently my humor was NOT appropriate. / I’m sure you can see why this title was chosen. This little bee probably wasn’t imprisoned at all, but they do look like bars around his face! / This is a flower in the process of blooming. When we return next weekend, I hope to capture these in full bloom! / Hehe, this little guy was filling up like a car at the petrol-pump! I’m sure he saw the camera coming toward him, but just had to get that nectar! / This amazing shot was incredibly lucky. With a dedicated macro lens, she was going to shoot just the flower … but found the little black bug inside. / This amazing little bee was sticking his face straight into the flower, digging all the nectar out. / We think this was an ant, but not real sure! He was swimming around the nectar, presumably doing the anty-paddle (doggy paddle, get it?!). / Here is that bee again. This was the last time we saw this guy before he flew back to the hive… / SaharaBelle tells me this is her favourite shot, and I agree. The detail in those wings is outstanding! / But this is not the end! SaharaBelle and I have plans for more day-trips, even with the SA Central group later this year! SaharaBelle and I hope you all (wink wink at friends and family!) like these cards enough to purchase a few.

    Well !!! I’m getting my third photo published in the newspaper tomorrow. My first two were in Adelaide. This one is the local here in town. I’m trying to get my name known around here and D.Boss (as I”ll call him cause there’s at least 5 David’s that I know here) has given me a huge break by taking on my freelance stuff (when it’s good enough) and also employing me part time. He’s quite happy to put a by-line with my name to give me a plug. Tonight I have the school Gala to photograph. That’s going to be fun! Then I’m going to have a glass when I get home :):):)

    Somehow … I think I’ve done well. 3 weeks ago I sent out several emails to newspapers in my area letting them know of my photographic skills and available services. Within 10 minutes, I was contacted by the Editor of the newspaper … in my town. As of today … I’ve had 10 photographs printed in the newspaper … including a scoop concerning a recent AFL draft. This is a totally new area of photography for me, being journalistic and sports. I have so much to learn but I am enjoying it immensely. If that’s how you spell it. Who cares … it’s still fabulous! :) life is good x x x

    Mandi Whitten and I have launched a collaborative project called “Breathing Space”. To breathe is to be alive. To have space is to have freedom for personal growth and fulfilment. Breathing Space is a photographic project that explores the spaces that we in the queer community inhabit. These spaces are as diverse as the community itself is. It consists of images – of both male and female forms – that illustrate and celebrate the diversity of our community within our individually fashioned pockets of safety. Please visit our website here and let us know what you think!

    Hey All, Well Bec and I are in the process of getting together some funds to go towards a massive trip that we have planned. A brief outline of what we intend to do follows: November 28th: Fly to Perth. Stay in Perth with family for Christmas & New Years. Buy a Subaru Forester GT. During this time we intend to visit Geraldton, the Pinnacles, The Abrohles Islands, Bussleton.. basically we want to do a lot of snorkeling, maybe some diving and a lot of photography. January 4th, Leave Perth and go via the following places: Busselton, Margaret River, Denmark, Albany, Esperance, across the Nullarbor and into Adelaide. While in Adelaide we will probably stay in Goolwa (near Victor Harbor) for a few days. Then from Adelaide we will drive through the middle of NSW via Dubbo, stop for a day and visit Western Plains Zoo, then home to Brisbane via Goondiwindi. What I’m looking for is some suggestions of places to snorkle, places to take photos and things that I just “must see”. We want to visit the old telegraph house near the nullarbor, I want to get some shots of ghost towns and ruins.. some typical outback and coastal shots. Also I’m looking for wildflowers and canola and/or lavender fields. If anyone has any suggestions, tips etc on what to do or not to do.. I’d love to hear them. Also if anyone has any experience on the unsealed 4×4 track between esperance and the nullarbor, I’d love to hear from you! Regards Paul Pichugin / http://www.paulpichugin.com
