It isn’t often I am shocked by something I read on the interwebs, after all, some of my dirty mates send me the most disgusting links at times. But last night I read another blog that did leave me staring at the LCD in amazement. This write up by Sam at SH Photography was not expected, that’s for sure.
Thanks for the kind words Sam.

Last Monday, one of my photos was used as the front page photo of our local paper. Many thanks to John Hanscombe, the papers editor, and Jude S for getting my foot in the door at the paper.

Once again, I ventured out to the Sydney Royal Easter Show. I never fails to disappoint, even with inclement weather during the time I was there.
More shots here.
Look at that photo. Do you see anything that makes it more interesting than just a photo of a lost shoe?
I am still alive!

It seems the past 6 months, street photography is all the rage. Well I had a chance to spend a lazy 45 minutes in Sydney not so long ago and thought I would give it a try.
It seems to me that you are looking for little moments in time that if you capture them, set themselves apart from just people wandering around the streets of large cities.
The guy in the wheel chair did a 360 for me then a wheelie acdross the street. What a bloke.
Street photography, it could actually make the trips to the metropolis enjoyable.
Well, its been a while since I went to the Formula 1 Grand Prix, but the chance of a wander through the pit lane and F1 garages got me in the car for the 900km trip to Melbourne on Friday.
As it turned out, I missed the chance for a pit lane walk, but still enjoyed seeing the F1 cars blasting around the track. The car in the photo above is one of the Formula 5000 cars that raced on the Saturday that I was there.
Photography of the cars them selves is virtually impossible these days. As you can see from the photo, you are shooting through very heavy wire mesh fencing. You cant get close enough to it to use a wide aperture to blur it any more. God what I would have given for a press pass that day.
It isn’t often I see another blog that keeps me looking for a good half an hour or so, but just the other day I found this…

Do yourself a favour.

God it is annoying when you dont frame a shot correctly. Clipping the birds wing here really pissed me off. I had hardly any time to shoot and I managed to get the focus nearly right, but stuffed the composition. The difference between a good shot and this shot is milliseconds!
