    If you can’t tell by the lack of posts over the past month, its been a busy time for me. It was mostly assignments at uni taking up all my time which is not fun. Now that all this has subsided for a while, it’s back to shooting. As I usually do, I’ve bunched a… Read more

    Darling Square

    Very recently a new area opened here in Sydney. This area is Darling Square which can be seen in the featured image at the top of the page. The spiral type building is actually houses a library, food hall and other things. I have to say I really like the design of it. I had… Read more

    Have you ever been to a location to try something new, then leave feeling like the shots didn’t work out? That’s how I felt after taking the above image.

    Another Week Done

    So in my last post I mentioned how good the weather had been with all the rain. Sadly that didn’t last and the sun is back as you can see. It’s been a fairly busy week for me since I was trying to finish my article on why I love 35mm and 85mm. If you… Read more

    Here are some photos from the Vivid festival here in Sydney. Nothing really changed much this year so I didn’t take many photos. The few photos I did take were mostly candid street shots.

    Walk Around

    Now that the weather is getting a bit cooler, I’ve got into the habit of carrying my M5 with me for walks on my lunch break. I’ve mostly been pairing it with the 22mm f/2 since this combo is so small it can fit in my pocket. I originally planned to take photos on the… Read more

    We had a 4 day long weekend here in Sydney and it was quite eventful. These photos are from Friday night and all taken in Barangaroo, right near my office. We had dinner right after work and since I had my M5 with me, I went for a quick walk to take some shots. Read more
