Mobile Street Art - For J2

Some may remember the car below from my original but now defunct blog. The car was part of an exhibit in a local art gallery (also now defunct - purely coincidental). It's been over a year since I last saw this car, but today it turned up in a laneway near my home. It looks as though some of the original artwork has been painted over, and only the dog (?) on the back is still intact.

Ah... faded memories.

Lunar Eclipse 2007

On August 28th 2007, we were lucky enough to witness a rare lunar eclipse where the moon turned red.

Some workmates and I went on a night trek in Gadigal National Park and had a little champagne picnic (just a little... we still needed to find our way out of the forest afterwards). I took my camera and tripod along to try my luck with night photography.

Here is one of the 120-odd photos that worked out pretty well. Don't ask about the 200+ that I've already deleted... I still have a LONG way to go in regards to learning how to use the basic features of my camera. The next lunar eclipse will be in 2011. I'd like to learn how to turn off continuous auto-focus by then. And to also be able to take time lapse photos.

More photos can be seen in my flickr Lunar Eclipse photo set.

Rising from the ashes

Welcome to my new blog site. As some of you may know, I recently deleted my google account, which in turn wiped out everything associated with it. So, I'm starting a new one. Ta-dah!

Hopefully I'll get around to at least photo-blogging a bit more, as I never have anything to properly blog about.
