When you are a photography junkie...  -  Categories: whatever...  -  @ 11:40:06 am

...friends save pieces of photographic "junk mail" thinking you are interested (and you are).
...when friends show you their pictures to you and you enjoy seeing them no matter what level they are at.
...when friends show you pictures and you find several ways in which they might improve.
...when you realise that spilling forth with ideas on how others might improve their photography is not going to work and keeping your ideas to yourself is OK.
...when you always have a camera with you.
...when the look of sodden, trodden on paper on a footpath visually interests you. As does twigs, rocks and the like.
...when lens talk no longer interests you.

Not taking pictures of...  -  Categories: Photos  -  @ 09:10:00 am

I'm not taking pictures of twigs, rocks, leaves, water, trees or whatever else you see here.

When the items in front of me look right together, when they meet the edge of the viewfinder and look like they are meant to be there, the shutter goes click.

Walking  -  Categories: Photos  -  @ 12:13:53 pm

You may of noticed I enjoy going for walks. There are a few resons for that and I will list the ones I can think of here but they are in no means in any order of importance.

  • The time alone in the early morning or late evening air is refreshing and allows me to clear my mind.

  • It gives me a chance to take my camera out and take pictures which also clears my mind of the usual daily matters.

  • My chosen job ties me to a desk behind a computer for long hours bashing away either designing boards or writing code.

  • I am intertested in the cahnges that occur in the area I live, homes are knocked down and many units replace them which explains our power outages from time to time as the power demand escalates. Trees go down to be replaced by, usually nothing but grass or concrete.

  • I like trees so I gravitate towards the several kilometers of walking track beside a creek that is just down the road.

  • I occassionally meet and talk to the locals which can be a good thing and sometimes not.


  • I'm sure there are more reasons, I'll post them when I remember.

    You know that those times when you'd love to bring your decent big camera along with you but you have no room in your bag for something that big. Well here is the camera that gives big camera performance in a small compact camera package.
    On my wish list.
