La Perouse
Went down to La Perouse a little whie ago with a friend to kill some time. Took a few photos, but never really looked at them after they were uploaded onto the computer. The other night i stumbled across them again, and thought i’d try out some funky post processing on them. My skills with photoshop are very limited, as i dont spend much time on it at all, especially editing photos. I usually lose interest after about 5 minutes. Thats what attracts me to film photography, all the work is done for you! haha.. well not exactly, but you know what i mean.
Anyway, so this is one of the pictures i was working on. It’s still not 100% but thought i’d post it up anyway, as i kind of like it.
Oh, and if you dont know anything about La Perouse, here is some light reading for you : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Perouse,_New_South_Wales 
Some “B” Sides
Been going through the restored files on my old hard drive today and found some pictures i had totally forgotten about. They are all from my Asia trip last year, mostly in Japan though.
Its a nice finding old pictures you’d forgotten about 
08
Well yep, it’s 2008 now… Where did 2007 go?
I hope everyone had a good time over the Christmas/New Year period. Mine was really good, and i’m now looking forward to all the surprises and challenges the new year will bring. I have quite a few personal goals that i hope i get though. I also hope this new year can allow me to take more/better photos. I have a few little projects i will be pursuing, so hopefully they turn out ok!
Oh, and i had a good end to 2007 when i found out one of my photos won a monthly challenge at Australian Photography.net
It was a really big surprise for me as i’ve never won anything (big or small) when it comes to photography. What was also more of a surprise was the fact my picture actually had the highest votes. As usually the most popular photographic subjects on the forum are landscapes and wildlife. Street photography isn’t very abundant.
Well below is the photo that won the November challenge for “slow shutter speed”. For a prize i’ll be getting an A1 photo print of my choice, just have to figure out what i want printed though!
Yet Another Shinjuku Streetscape
Did this when i found my Kyoto photos the other day.. Similar style to my Shibuya street series.
Revisiting Kyoto
Just stumbled on some pics i took when i was in Kyoto so thought i’d muck around with them a bit. I quite like how they turned out.
