    My Week on Instagram

    I really enjoy Instagram. It’s fun to play with editing and filters and the content I post is often more candid and casual – iPhone snaps, food and friends, things I come across on my wanderings or edits I play with while watching TV. I post there quite regularly and am always interested to see…

    Melbourne Streets 10

    Nailed It. This was my favourite shot from the walk. I love it. And it’s the last one from the IGers Melbourne InstaMeet March 2016. It was a really good walk, covering about 2km through the gritty streets of Fitzroy and Carlton.  If you would like to see more from all the other Instagrammers who…

    IGers Melbourne InstaMeet March 2016 The group contained a few people who were happy to pose for various shots and this guy was doing that for a group up on top of this heavily-graffiti’ed parking structure. I was lucky enough to catch him in the act. x desleyjane

    Retired Rower. 

    We came across this gentleman as we were walking along the bank of Albert Park Lake in South Melbourne. We asked if we could take his photo and he laughed at us. He said to tell everyone that he is the retired rower. I noticed his name on the canoe behind him so I looked…

    Melbourne Streets 6

    I was so happy to find so many chances for macro shots on our walk through the very urban streets of Fitzroy and Carlton. In fact, I used my macro lens exclusively for the last two hours of the walk. I found this plant outside of the diner where we finished our walk. It was…

    Melbourne Streets 1

    I joined in the IG’ers Melbourne meetup this month – an Instagram group which hosts photo walks in your city. It was a great day walking the streets of Fitzroy and Carlton in Melbourne city. I wanted to take shots that were a little different, so I popped the 60mm macro lens on and approached…

    iPhriday – Contemplating Life and Eternity

    I have started taking a different route to work lately and I have discovered this bicycle rack with this same sign attached. It kind of makes you wonder which would be the worst eternal predicament – stuck in traffic, stuck on a bicycle or stuck trudging along the same old footpath. Which would you choose?…

  • 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,…

  • 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…
