The outback is a special place, a harsh place, but worth every moment and anyone living in or visiting Australia should go. I call it real Australia. Sure, the beach and the surf life is great but the majesty and wonder of the Mars like red sands and the geological rock formations are magical and…Read more Look beyond the guided path

A splash of colour
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
Tokyo
I recently went to Japan. I think I might be in love! Japanese culture always fascinated me so when the chance came up to drop in to Tokyo for a few days, I took it. With both hands. Japan is a rich with old heritage and modern technology. As a sci-fi movie fan, it was…Read more Tokyo
Getting wide on it
I've been slack in posting content, real slack. But I have taken a shed load of pictures so today I will focus on my new love, my Sigma 10-20mm f4.5 lens. Lena rental might be my new best friend. I'd not really considered it before but decided to take a look at hiring a wide…Read more Getting wide on it

There is a myth around the world of travel that it is all glamour and glory. The truth is that beyond the fringes of our social media accounts, a travellers life is anything but glamorous.

What a difference an hour makes!
I went back to bed when I heard the rain this morning. My first free day in what feels like weeks, ruined by the sound of torrential downpour. My plans to hit the streets hard and take pictures in ruins. Looking up at the southern cross system on the ceiling I decided to suck it…Read more What a difference an hour makes!
Life in sync
I read somewhere that people in large groups often walk in sync. I think it might have been something to do with a structural engineer report into bridges. Anyway, I have been sat at different times people watching and you know what? You can see how they pick up the beat. In pairs, groups and…Read more Life in sync
Love locks last stand
From Melbourne to Paris, love is dead! Not yet over Melbourne City councils decision to cut the love locks off Southgate Bridge, now Paris has decided to do the same with the iconic bridge that started it all. For years, love struck Parisians and jet setters wrote messages on padlocks before throwing the keys into…Read more Love locks last stand
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.
