These kids are unreal. look at them! They have found a disused iron bar in amongst the lava chunks in Goma, Congo – and they have fashioned into a ‘skipping rope.’ Look at the joy on their faces. Especially the little bloke on the left. Even the girl in the wheelchair is smiling. This is the kind of happiness that takes your breath away. I shot a few of the same scene. They loved it and couldn’t wait to see themselves in the screen on my digital camera. Buy this in any form and the profits go to the Hospital they were playing at.

A disused Cafe in Leeds city centre – an interesting old building

Disused gold mine and works site at Deep Creek, South Australia.
Taken after a tremendous downpour of rain and flash flooding at Junee, I had traveled back five years after first seeing the building to photograph it just praying that it was still there. My first HDR that I consider worth showing.
A sign of the times. We are suffering from extreme drought conditions here in Australia. The effects are widespread. Our mighty Murray River is under pressure and the unique eco system of the Coorong at the Murray Mouth is suffering terribly. More info on the plight of the Coorong can be found here
No more singing for this one! Thank you for looking.
So, I’ve just dropped the GF off at work and as I’m heading home I find this disused garage. The doors are broken and I take a look inside the old workshop. Hmmm nothing here but an old busted up arcade game with its chair… so I grab my trusty camera and my monopod and set the chair up in the middle of the workshop. Now apart from the hole in the roof and the light from the door its dark in here, so I set the timer on the camera to 20 secs so as to avoid any camera shake. I took a few pics and then thought I’d have a smoke and a think about what else I could do with this place. So I switched the camera off (or so I thought, I’d actually pressed the shutter button instead) and sat down to think about the hole in the roof and the light coming through it… Click went the camera. So here’s the result… Me trespassing and smoking a cigarette in somebody’s workplace. Either way you look at it I’m now a criminal an I’m just waiting for the knock at the door!
this is the old kays/ grattan catologue warehouse in holbeck, leeds. it is due to be demolished to make way for a new multi-million pound ‘Holbeck Village’.
If I could offer one single piece of photography advice, it would be – “Take far more shots than you need. Make sure its ‘in the can’, instead of wishing you’d done things differently.” Looking back through my folders I found some ‘handy looking’ Infrared exposures I’d made of the cooling towers at Thorpe Marsh last summer… Lightly HDR’d to lose some of the flare and finished, without too much fuss, using a subtle blue tone.

The remains of the old rail trestle bridge that crosses the Curdies River at Timboon in the Otway Ranges of Victoria. Trestle Railway Bridge / The Rail Bridge over Curdies River, Curdies Siding, Timboon, was constructed in 1892 on the Timboon-Camperdown Line by Buscombe, Chappell & Bell for the Victorian Railways. It is a single track, 31 span timber trestle bridge spanning the river and flood plain with a variety of two and four pile pier types, with and without stay piles. The trestles are constructed of large diameter timber bush poles bolted together, with sawn timber superstructure and footway, employing traditional and utilitarian bridge and wharf building techniques. The footway was removed c.1920 and the line has been discontinued. The Rail Bridge is historically significant in that it was erected to facilitate development of the Heytesbury area, and providing a line of communication with the coastal town at Port Campbell. The railway gave access to markets for local industries, including the creamery and butter factory. It is architecturally significant as a notable example of timber trestle bridge construction, which demonstrates a distinctive and presently rarely used construction method that utilised the best qualities of the native bush timbers. Constructed of local Heytesbury forest timber, the bridge illustrates vernacular bridge building traditions of the late nineteenth century, displaying a variety of two and four pile pier types. It is one of the few surviving railway structures of this type in Victoria. Pentax K20D Camera. / Edited in ACDSee Pro3 My Bubblesite showcases images in their categories.

Abstract Macro Photography its stuff like this shot that makes me really excited about my chosen style of photography. fookin love it! / i sometimes cannot believe the abstract macro shots that i come across on my travels, and this one it one of my new found favorites Image was approx 4inch X 2inch on a wall a good 50 foot tall by around 400 meters long and running the whole length of a old disused work site. / So it wasnt what you would call a small wall. Its HUGE / I have shot here before and studied the wall close up. / There is so much for my eyes to look at that my eyes couldnt focus on anything, probably too over excited with my find, but i came away with very little. / This time i took a few steps back from the wall and i could see and capture, so much more than when i was close up.
