  • May – III

    May – III

    I took a lot of photos this month, especially towards the end. There’s been a few duds. I went to Sydney for the long weekend, mostly to be in a bus, in a hotel room, catching up with some people, and flicking out some street photos. Also Vivid was on. Vivid only had a few…

    May – II

    A second post for May, on account that I’m trying not to blow out the load time for my posts. I’ve got a project or two on the back burner, simmering away and getting attention when I have a bit of spare time. With winter setting in, there’s a tight time for some golden hour…

    May – I

    I’m spinning in a chair waiting for new work. I bought two flashes, with one I have yet to play with. But flashes kind of require people and there hasn’t been a lot of that this month yet. I’ll be in Sydney soon, so I’ll dump all those shots in a separate post.

  • Helio Press 10th Anniversary

    Helio Press 10th Anniversary

    Megalo had a show opening last week to celebrate Helio Press’ tenth anniversary, with Helio Press: Ten Trips Around The Sun. Helio Press is a small Melbourne-based studio focused around Risograph printing. Risograph is a machine whose parents might be a photocopier and a screen printing table. Original work is scanned in, but instead of…

  • March – Remainders

    March – Remainders

    Another month nearly down. A busy month of Enlighten, a week of balloon launches (or aspirational launches), finishing a certificate course, gear testing, trying to see an eclipse and an aurora, an outdoor music event, annoying people with a flash and other things which mostly don’t add up to their own story in a sense.…

  • March – Balloon Spectacular

    March – Balloon Spectacular

    With the weather getting ever-so-slightly colder, balloon enthusiasts come out around the lakeside to attempt at a launch of balloons, some of a particular shape or size. All week, people rock up in the pre-dawn on the lawns in front of the National Library to see the balloons inflate, and if the conditions are right,…

  • February – Roundup

    February – Roundup

    The later half of February was starting and now desperately trying to finish up a certification course, realising there was a minor fuckup that happened last year, and looking for a new job in design. It also had a test photoshoot on the rooftop pool of friends’ apartment block. I don’t get much chance to…

  • January

    January

    New Years floated right on by, with not much to say, but for the expectation that the shit of 2025 was done and to begin working on plans to make 2026 a year of taking a new direction. But needless horrors and greed abroad, shows low expectations. After helping out with a cosplay photoshoot, I…

  • More film shots

    More film shots

    So since August (?) I’ve been taken shots on two cameras – a Voigtlander Bessa R4M and Horseman Convertible which I picked up in *checks notes* August… Both cameras work fairly well for me. The R4M is small, light and mechanical. It uses a battery only for the light meter. The Horseman is a compact-ish…
