You never know what you’re going to get.
Here are some shots from the most recent roll of film I got developed from my Pentax K1000. I knew that the roll had been in there for a while but I was surprised when I received pictures from my trip to Canada over a year ago! The first few pictures are from a weekend trip to Kelowna (Canada) to watch Aussie rules. I’m pretty sure I watched more Aussie Rules in Canada than I had watched in my whole life previous to my trip.
The next few are from a bright sunny day in Melbourne at the end of Winter. 
I grew up in a nice part of the world called the Sunshine Coast. I snapped this shot at Mooloolava on a recent trip back to see the folks.
On that short trip, I managed to escape with my friends down to Coffs Harbor. We hung out and walked dogs on beaches, did a tiny bit of 4WDing and watched the World Rally Championships. I’ll upload pics from the rally soon. 
The last pic is my favourite. It’s my friend Kristy checking emails or Facebook or Twitter. Remember when phones just use to make phone calls?
Lately
It’s been a while since my last blog post so here’s what I’ve been doing to get you up to speed.
Lately Ive been listening to this:
…watching this:
…eating this (inappropriate chicken):
…and taking pictures of this:

Maxin’ and relaxin’
The Air Max 1 is also sometimes know as Air Max ’87 as the sneaker was released in 1987.
Developed by Mark Parker and designed by Tinker Hatfield, this is the shoe that dared to be different. By contrasting bold red with clean white, the shoe showcased the first ever Visible Air unit, and boasted a new midsole foot frame, heel notch and lace locks, making the Air Max 1 a bubbling cauldron of Nike innovation.
Nike made the shoe. We made it a legend.
Wait a minute
Flinders Street Station, Melbourne, Australia 2011
A few weeks ago, while everyone else was leaving work and in a hurry to get home, my friend Tay and I took a little photo walk around the Yarra. I hadn’t shot in a while and it was good to get out and about.
More photos from our walk to come. Stay tuned.
Lighten up
Melbourne is a very photogenic city. All you need is a tripod and 15 seconds of your time.
Ezzy does it
Australia played Mexico in the hockey a few weeks ago. I sat in front of two rows of fanatical Mexico supporters that yelled “HUEVOS!” a lot. I’m still not sure what eggs have to do with ice hockey.
Sunrise. Sunset.

Beauty in death
I shot this photo from a car while stuck in traffic. Everything in the foreground is dark and mysterious but on the other side of the fence, where both heros and villains from the past have found their final resting place, the sun is shining, the skies are blue and the clouds are light and fluffy. The fence and barbed wire almost make it look like an exclusive place to be.
If you’re a Melbourne local then you know that taking Cemetery Road at peak hour can leave you banging your head against the steering wheel if you don’t have either a) Metallica – Ride the lighting in your CD player, or b) Good company.
I was lucky enough to have B, and unlucky enough to have Kelly Clarkson on the radio.
