Shoal Point Beach.
It has been so dry here in Mackay. Well maybe that’s not the right way to put it. I’ve mentioned in some comments about how humid it is here – it’s usually about 30 degrees Celsius by 9am and sits at between 70 and 75% humidity. There’s a breeze off the ocean, but it’s a hot…

The Trek North
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and holiday season so far. I did the long trek north in the car with my Dad a few days before Christmas. It was 1,064km and took us a little over 13 hours (see the map at the end of this post for a good idea of…

Beautiful Brisbane – November 2015 (monochrome)
Here is another gallery for the Cardinal’s Changing Seasons Event. My first gallery of colour shots can be seen here. There’s something about the black and white ones that really appeals to me, particularly shots with people and shots at night. As usual, Olympus OMD EM5 with 17mm or 60mm lens, handheld, wandering my city,…

After the Storm
As some of you know, we’ve had a very stormy few weeks in Brisbane. I managed to be out in one recently and was able to capture some great storm clouds coming over the city – you can see them here if you missed them. The days are hot, in the mid-30s (Celsius) and become…

Beautiful Brisbane – November 2015 (Colour)
Well I managed to do another shoot for Cardinal Guzman’s The Changing Seasons event. I have a feeling I might just make it to December as well 😉 Actually for this one I cheated and took these shots on October 31st. We are in Spring right now and I took these photos on a Saturday evening…

#QLDstorms
We Queenslanders are quite used to crazy storms popping up out of nowhere and we’ve become quite good at predicting when a storm is going to happen. They can be quite destructive so we have to be careful to keep safe. I think sometimes we get a little blasé about it, which can be dangerous.…

Beautiful Brisbane – October 2015
I feel like this might have been my last Changing Seasons (hosted by Cardinal Guzman) shoot for Brisbane. Maybe I can fit one more in? Not sure… I met up with an old friend and we went on a walk around Southbank with our cameras and our conversation, visiting all the usual spots as well as a…

Deceptive Planting
You could be forgiven for thinking that these photos were taken in some wintry location in Europe or the US. However, I took these in my back garden about a month ago. This pine tree grows in my neighbour’s back garden, tall and proud and I am always fascinated by it. Often, there are large…

Break in Transmission
Some of you may have noticed that I have been somewhat absent from the land of blogging of late. It breaks my heart a little bit, because it’s always my favourite thing to do – writing posts with photos that I’ve painstakingly captured and edited, reading posts from my wonderful blogging friends and mostly reading…

An August Sunday in Brisbane
Brisbane is a beautiful, laid back, comfortable city. We were at the end of Winter when I took thee shots and the temperatures ranged between 12 and 27 degrees Celsius this week. Fabulous. A couple of weekends ago, two of my best friends and I went out for the day. We had a loose plan of having…

Fun in the Sun with Dad
This little girl was so cute, jumping around and creeping up on her Dad. Shortly after these shots were taken, they left and she was riding a little pink tricycle. I’m sorry I didn’t catch a shot of that. From my recent Changing Seasons shoot at Southbank in Brisbane. These are for Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab…
