I haven’t updated this photoblog for what seems like an eternity but I am still getting about 20-30 visits per day…must be stray or lost surfers.

Anyways, I just have too many commitments at this stage to manage this space meaningfully. I am still taking photographs and 50mm is still my favourite focal length. In fact I rented a darkroom for a whole week earlier this year in Brisbane and it was awesome. I PRINTED MY OWN NEGATIVES !!!!!! I can’t describe the feeling – magical, mystical, fulfilling, whatever – It was great!

You can find more information about the darkroom I hired here – Blanco Negro – Chris is a great guy and a great teacher. (Chris, if you are reading this, Thank you again!)

Also, my old computer crashed a few months ago and I have a shiny one now. Did not loose and pictures because I have the negs!! However it messed up my workflow a little.  Haven’t made the effort to set up my scanner to my new computer and also, I think the software that came with my scanner might not be compatible with OS Lion. Anyways….. one of these days.

What else………. Adele is a great singer. Period.

Will leave you with some pictures of my gears. Boring I know but it is a PHOTOblog after all :)

Best to all!!!!

If you are interested in rangefinder photography or just photography, I highly recommend a visit.

Anyways, one thing came up recently in the forum,

Do you go through periods where you don’t take any pictures? and does that make you feel some form of guilt?

To which a fellow member (dave lackey) replied beautifully,

No, that is simply life. Music would be nothing without the pauses between active notes and the same is with life. You make your own music as you go along with pauses now and then, until the end.

It is what you do overall that determines your outcome, so enjoy the breaks and come back each time re-invigorated with passion!

Hope you are having a great sunday afternoon.

I have to say, the building was a lot smaller than I imagined it to be, though still very impressive nevertheless.

I have been to a fair few botanic gardens in my short lifetime. This one here is not the most spectacular but I just like it.
Spent quite a bit of time roaming and strolling around the garden while in Brisbane. Lots of things happening and lots of things to see.
