My Fujifilm XF 33mm f/1.4 R LM WR Has Arrived!
Two days ago, I finally sold my Fujifilm XF 23mm f/1.4 R LM WR and got the XF 33mm f/1.4 R LM WR as its replacement. Although I liked the 23mm, it has an equivalent of 35mm so I didn’t want to double up with my full frame gear. I haven’t got to use the lens much due to rainy weather and work, but I did take the two following…

My Sony Kit So Far
It’s only been a few days since I made the swap to Sony but it’s been busy. Like whenever I get a new camera I’ve been taking a lot of photos so I can get used to how the body works. In next week’s podcast episode I’ll be discussing in detail why I made the swap and some early impressions. I know have 2 E Mount lenses and I definitely…

A Trip To Melbourne & More
This is probably one of my biggest posts in quite some time. I’ve got a bit behind in my editing but I guess it’s more content for you. I’m finally back to shooting a lot, partially thanks to a new camera. As I mentioned in my last post, I said goodbye to the Canon EOS M50 Mark II and hello to the Fujifilm X-S10. First topic to cover though is…

She Said Yes!
I currently have a post in the works with a bunch of photos from my last outing but I thought I’d quickly release this one first. After nearly 11 years I am finally engaged to my now fiancé! It was an easy yes since we already have our wedding booked but still exciting nevertheless. This shot was taking with my R6 and RF 35mm f/1.8 IS and I’m going to…

How My Cityscapes Have Changed
Last weekend I went out to shoot Cityscapes for the first time since daylight savings ended. I decided to use the Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 for the image above and I realized something interesting, I actually prefer telephotos for Cityscapes now. Just to see if this was true I thought I’d also go out with the Canon RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM which is another lens I own but haven’t…

A Review, a Revisit and a Cafe
We are almost halfway through April and I’ve barely been shooting this year so far but I’m trying to change that. I have now released my Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 STM IS review over at The Photography Enthusiast which the featured image at the top of the page is for. Aside from that I’ve had 2 photo outings of sorts. The first one was me just simply going to QVB…

The Family Grows Then Shrinks
Despite making it my goal to control my G.A.S this year, my lens family got a tiny bit bigger last week. In 2020 I travelled within the state using just the M5 and was pleasantly surprised with how well it performed and didn’t feel limiting. Like most people, if travelling with family photography isn’t my sole focus so I don’t usually have the same dedication to photos as I have…

Playing Catch Up
Although we’re now 26 days into 2022 I still have a few images from 2021 that I hadn’t posted yet. I thought I’d just add them to some images I took last week and make a bit of a longer post. The Small Storm For the image at the top of the page there was a big storm one evening and I couldn’t resist so I grabbed my camera to…

My Top 5 Images of 2021
This year was a bit up and down for my photography due to lockdowns stopping me from shooting as much as I usually do during the colder months. Regardless I took some images this year that I’m really proud of and picking these wasn’t an easy task. The choice had to be made though and here are my top 5 images in no particular order. The Island View Pano Gear…

Bottle for Macro Monday’s
For this weeks Macro Monday’s challenge the theme is a bottle which couldn’t have anything inside it and had to focus on the object itself. I wasn’t too sure what I could do to make a bottle by itself more interesting and I ended up with the image you see above. I decided to focus on the opening of the bottle and the textures around it. The lights from my…
