I recently started using Enlightapp to play with my photos on my phone and have to say, it is prett fantastic! I like to keep my kit light when running around and find that my iPhone 6 Plus has a big enough screen for me to see what I am doing (for now at least).…Read more A splash of colour

Batman day, world tourism day – what a weekend!
I went out shooting with @legojacker on Instagram this weekend and had a blast. His work is both entertaining and thought provoking!

Life in chaos
In a past life, my photography used to figure very heavily in protest movements. Recent events in Melbourne gave me an opportunity to attend such an event as Reclaim Australia and No Room for Racism protestors clashed outside the Parliament building of Victoria on Spring Street on July 18th. Ultimately we are one species living…Read more Life in chaos
Duality – life through the mirror
This weeks theme has been reflections and mirrors. I've been watching the world through the duality of mirrors, glass and reflections.

We're all…Read more Artists are born, not made
There’s life beyond the lens.
I wonder sometimes whether technology kills off our creativity, I (like many others) have a smartphone, dozens of apps, laptop and camera - all at hand the majority of the time. I spend so much time taking pictures, playing with a few on photoshop and sharing even less on some of the numerous social media…Read more There’s life beyond the lens.
