    September Graffiti

    So when I left my job I got to be twice as busy. Years ago, I would spend my birthday going around taking photos of graffiti and street art around Canberra. And I hadn’t done it in a while. I also recently had a talk at the Dickson College about my graffiti/street art photography. Included…

    September

    A trip to Sydney, another to my hometown. I left my job of nearly nine years too. Also ran a zine fair, but I don’t have photos of that for this place. It’s been a busy month.

    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…

    January, February

    Some Canberra Graffiti, seeing E.L.K and HOUL work again in Canberra was nice, along with some other new work around the traps. Then I was off on a long weekend in Melbourne with a busted leg for tabling at Festival of the Photocopier, Melbourne’s premier zine fair, organised by the Sticky Institute. It was a…

  • Katoomba and Sydney

    Katoomba and Sydney

    Over New Years, my friend Sam and I went to Katoomba, and then I spent a couple of days in Sydney, seeing Louise Bourgeois and Kandisky exhibitions, and hunting around for some camera gear. Katoomba has a nice art gallery and with some fairly contemporary stuff. Also I got injured from a bike ride, which…

  • Adelaide Road Trip

    Adelaide Road Trip

    For the two weeks, I’ve been on the road with a friend to Adelaide and back. Included were a trip to Kangaroo Island, Port Lincoln and the Adelaide Hills. It was a good, relaxing trip, but now I have to get back to work.

  • Out of Town

    Out of Town

    So I’ve been out of town. Most of my time was spent reacquainting myself with both Melbourne and Hobart, along with seeing art galleries and a road trip across Tasmania. Melbourne was fun. I spent a lot of time at the National Gallery of Victoria, RMIT’s Art Gallery (the Elision Ensemble show was especially good)…

  • Other Worlds Zine Fair

    Other Worlds Zine Fair

    The Other Worlds Zine Fair was on again for a third year running. It began as the protest zine fair against one of the sponsors of the MCA. And both were run on the same day in previous years. But not this time. Great for me really, because running between two concurrent fairs is exhausting.…
