  • 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…

    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

    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…

    November, December

    I’m busy looking for a new job, backing up about 750GB of photos from a month of travelling. Also been working on some design stuff, a portfolio and new zines.

    Copenhagen

    The flight to Copenhagen, involved stopping at Singapore and Heathrow. Singapore International Airport is hot and quiet at night. There’s nothing to do but sit and wait to be screened by security and let back on the plane. The flight from Singapore is mercifully emptier. A few lucky people are able to stretch out on…

    August

    It’s the end of winter, but so far it’s been a false start to spring. This month saw a goth night in a waning video game bar, a Gauguin exhibit, and some photowalks.

    June

    It’s been a busy month of photoshoots and photowalks and the tenth Other World’s Zine Fair. I started getting up earlier to take photowalks around town before work. A photoshoot with Lydia and Coshlan. A photowalk with my buddy Scot, who you might have seen in my previous post about the Bessa R4M. Some night…

  • New Camera

    New Camera

    Recently I purchased a Voigtländer Bessa R4M, because I wanted to try a rangefinder camera and I didn’t want to wait around for the FujiFilm X100VI. Also, eBay was running a code on cameras from Japan and I missed an opportunity to pick up a seemingly good quality Leica M6 for under $3K. After a…
