Photo101(11): Pop of Colour [A Study in Pink].
I wish today’s theme had come before I started photographing my gnomes yesterday, they seem like the ultimate “pop of colour”. I had the theme in the back of mind all day and decided to do a study in pink (thank you, Sherlock). Those who know me well, know that I love pink, I have…

Photo101Weekend2: Play With Light.
What a blistering hot weekend! One of the hottest on record, it was 38C yesterday and 42C today (that’s 100F and 107F)! I haven’t experienced temperatures anywhere near that in a long time. Consequently, our light is bright all day. I mostly followed the brief and took photos of a single location over the day –…

Photo101(10): Mystery on the Mountain.
Day 10 already?! Wow. I love looking through all the posts and seeing how confident everyone is becoming, how many of us are posting multiple pics sometimes with stories attached. We had a public holiday here in Brisbane today for the first day of the G20 Summit. I decided to head up to Mount Tamborine…

Photo101(9): Warmth of the Aussie Sun.
In Australia, we don’t often need to “get warm” or “find warmth”. It’s coming to the end of Spring and the beginning of Summer so we get to bask in the warmth of the sun by the pool. Today I’m featuring Gidget’s best friend Olly (Gidget is my 6kg Maltese x Lhasa Apso and Olly…

Photo101(8): Natural World of Wonder.
Nature really is a wonderful thing. For someone who loves photography, it’s something that is always available. We can go for a wander and find something in nature that is worthy of a shot. We often find shapes and lines in nature and that was what I set out to do today. By chance, I…

Photo101(7): Landmark to G20.
I have been infatuated with The Story Bridge in Brisbane my whole life. My Mum, Dad, brother and I would drive to Brisbane at Christmas time quite regularly. It is almost 1,000km which took us about 12 hours with stops along the way. I remember asking my parents how long until we saw the bridge.…

Photo101(6): Connect & Disconnect.
Today’s theme is Connect and, like the other themes, there are a number of ways to interpret it. For me, I think the best way is to consider my morning routine: wake up, check WordPress notifications, check FaceBook, check Twitter, check LinkedIn. The last one usually co-incides with my morning coffee and the start of…

Photo101Weekend1: Composition
What a fun week it was last week. Very busy and challenging, but such a refreshing and fun way to “get away” from the usual. For this weekend, I came up with a project for Christmas. My friend likes to get a photo of herself with her dog (Olly) to use as a Christmas card…

Photo101(5): Solitude or Loneliness?
In solitude, where we are least alone. ~ George Gordon, Lord Byron, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage Today I am flying home and I had eager plans to photograph a scene in the Qantas lounge to reflect the solitude and also the loneliness that can be caused by frequent travel. I imagined a weary traveller sitting at his…

Photo101(4): Blissfully Sweet.
This one was delightfully obvious for me. I am in Melbourne for work and was unable to check what today’s challenge was until about 4pm (it’s released at about 11am here). When I saw the word “bliss” and with the fact that I’m visiting Melbourne, I immediately thought of Adriano Zumbo’s Patisserie in South Yarra…

Photo101(3): Water for Life.
Again today, a challenge. I left home at 6am for my flight to Melbourne and the challenge was released while on the plane. Working all day, so tricky to fit in a photo sesh. But I had an idea! Water is life, and for someone like me who travels often it’s most often a bottle of…

Photo101(2): Streets Where We Live.
Greetings! It was a long day at work today and I didn’t finish until late, so my photography happened in the dark. Quite a challenge. Since I was at my parents’ place, I dragged my Dad out with me to hold the light 🙂 I got a few shots at the intersection near my parent’s…
