Lights in the Sky

Went out shooting in Fremantle near the Maritime Museum. Try as I might, I haven’t been able to take one photo of the building that I’ve ever liked. Though at least this time I have come away with one image. I’ll revisit the set of images I do have later and maybe one will catch my eye before I send them for a one way trip into the oblivion.

In September 2008, I was in Melbourne walking along the Yarra River on a cold still night. And although I had my camera in hand with my tripod, it didn’t occur to me to take a photo until I saw this in front of me. I wish I had continued along further the River to capture more reflections of Melbourne but to be honest, the cold dissuaded me of that noble idea.

Along Came a Spider

It was laundry night which meant limited time for photography. Sleep becomes a priority quickly when working 12 hour shifts. Although, I was thankful that I wasn’t rostered on for night shift. I saw this guy above the laundry door. I don’t like spiders and tend to belt out a scream upon sight but I was in a mining camp and I had no desire to disturb anyone sleeping. It took some courage to head back out with a camera to take a photo.

Dash of Blue

This was taken last night.

After a day of storm warnings and then watching the weather updates, all it took was a rumble of thunder to head out of the house. I drove through heavy rain and negotiated my way to Kings Park. While I was there shooting, another photographer appeared and had the same idea and despite the cold and threat of further rain, we kept shooting until the storm left.
