A light lunch.

This photo is OK I think. I like the descrete pools of light at the tables (although the white on the table foreground is a little blown out) and the gossamer view through the curtain. I’ll give it a six out of ten. No…..I’ll give it a solid seven. … While I am not much…

Winter is coming.

Whilst these trees have not yet lost all their leaves, it will take but one big blow to drop the whole bundle.We have had a spectacular sunny Autumn here in Canberra, but now that is dissolving away and the gob of winter is pushing its way in. Despite my resistance. The smell of wood fires,…

Its all about the framing.

I snapped this picture down at our local supermarket.I would like to tell you that I carefully selected the framing to highlight the juxtaposition of sensual curves and industrial bold blocks of shading.

Smoking in the moment.

I’m really happy with this photo. The focus is sharp. The composition is good and the contrast between the man’s white beard and cigarette, and the greyscale background pops.

Make the most of it, lathering up in SPF 50 and checking out the small local craft markets at The Jetty. Ate way too much battered cauliflower and spicy chips all washed down with lashings of local…

On the lake.

Location: ///sticks.water.ever35°18.39018’S, 149°8.65482’E Visitors over for Easter. This afternoon took them for a lazy (and slightly hazy) electric boat ride on the lake. A few drinks, a few snacks (including some chilli olives that spontaneously combusted my cerebral cortex) and a top speed of 5 kph. And the in the evening, a late BBQ dinner…

All Calm.

Becoming a lake has put a lot of things in perspective for me. — Heather Christle Another perfect Autumn day. The best season in Canberra for sure. Coffee beside it, a sheet of antique glass. All calm, we reflect on reflections, sipping black and oatmilk, breathing woodfire and mint.
