Welcome to This Blog
I know its mostly photo's .... so if your not into that stuff then this prob isnt the place for you.
I travel a relative amount in WA chasing waves to surf, so now being armed with a camera i can document the places and waves that i get to see. I also carry my rig around with me prop about 80% of the time to shoot just random things that interest me, hence there will be a mixture of waves/surf and complete random randomness.
I have just completed a degree in a Bachelor of Surf Science & Technology (YES a degree that involves the surfing environment and industry plus other environmental and technological sciences) and also a supporting major in business studies. Kinda looking for a job, kinda not.
Please dont be shy. You can also check out full albums at my Flickr site just by clicking HERE

Epilepsy causing xmas lights
A house in Herdsman Lakes has gone bonkers with xmas lights, they're trying to raise money for PMH so get down there and check it out. All the lights go off to tunes being played across a radio frequency so you can sit in your car and watch or go walk around and have little dance to it if you like! If you got little ones they froth over it so get em down there.

Cott and OBH + Sunday + Alcohol = Fights, Crashes and Big Burgers
Sunday arvo (After i finished work) went down to OBH for a sneaky pint and a swim, then went to freo for a burger from flipside. It took almost 50min to get my burger! Good burger, but 50min C'mon....
I saw one guy get king hit in the face by the biggest Maori ive ever seen and then 5min later there was a car crash on westcoast hwy, hectic. Got a pic of the crash as i drove past but missed the punch.
Failure ...again
Tried to shoot the big moon the other night over perth city, i failed. The night before the moon rose at around 8ish with the lovely pink light that comes when the sun is setting in the west. The next night the moon didnt rise till 9.15! So ive gotten there at 7.45pm to get it at 8ish. 8ish comes and nothin, 15min goes past, nothin. Another 15min and another and another, still nothin! Eventually i found out from another guy waiting for the moon that it wasnt goin to rise till 9.15pm. What a rookie (Im talkin bout me). I did get some pics of the city tho with pinky/blue sky and the buildings reflecting a bit of oranges.

Fact: The moon was 10% bigger last night (and tonight)
...And im down the beach shooting sprinklers in the sun set. What was i doing. I couldnt see the moon so i thought nothing special was goin down, then i saw it. It was massive and had a lovely soft pink sky around it. Me being a rookie flunked it, by the time i got somewhere to photo it it was all over.

Dog Walk
Last night i had to take the dogs for a walk, however whilst walking this amazing sunset started to appear. I walked the dogs as quick as i could walk, then jumped into my car to and drove to the nearest high point. I ended up near the Boulevard shopping centre. By the time i got there the sun was already half past the horizon and by the time i got my camera out the sun was gone. It was about 5x better than the pics that i got :(

Perth Weather! What the...?
We are half way through December and it is cold, really wet and cold. I woke at 6am this morn to go to work and there was a huge rainbow, so huge i couldnt fit into a frame on my camera, starting at about Floreat and finishing up near Triggs. It was also raining huge rain drops so it was hard to shoot it without getting wet. It was a morning of huge things...

Boring Boring Wknd
The wknd just gone was pretty boring for my self. Worked Saturday - saw a bus load of friends going to the MGMT concert whilst driving around for work. Instant depression set in after that, luckily the few of us that didnt go banded together hunt out food and beer to take our minds off of the fact we were missing a top5 concert of the season.
Sunday worked again, then swam in a pool and watched a tv and ate a burger, then watched a movie.
Now its Monday

2nd time in the city in one day!..damn xmas shopping
Went into the city again at about 6ish, bad move. Cars everywhere, people everywhere, carparks nowhere.
Ended up parking in a wilson carpark. 2 Hours = $11 big ones!. Thats as much as a feast for kings at Shafto Taka's - Dont do it ppl ;/
My first two attempts of "street" shooting in the same day, too keen.
I then even went to the Osborne Park Fair to shoot Fireworks, same deal as city though so flagged it and came home. A very boring home.
Good morning office jocks
It was prob about 8ish, i'd parked illegally in a loading zone and the city was streaming with the 9to5'ers.
Its the first time i've ever taken "Street" Photo's and people give you dirty looks like your a real creep. A friend saw me as she was on her way to work and out creeped me by taping me on the shoulder at a set of lights and told me of the her new office ways.
I kept on eye on my car coz its a $100 fine in the city anywhere, after about an hour a parking cop was half way through wright ting me out a ticket. Luckily i ran hard and talked hard and persuaded him to discontinue with his efforts.
