Photography Weekend in Kiama
Bombo Quarry and Cathedral Rocks This trip started out with an idea to capture every lighthouse on the east coast of Australia, still something that I am thinking of doing.

A heavy Heart I write todays blog post with a heavy heart. I decided to head north west of Auckland to check out the Waitakere Ranges and shoot sunset at Lion Rock on Piha Beach. Little did I know that I would become witness to a tragedy. As I arrived on the beach they had […]

A Rocky Start
$2,780,000 for a camera! Yep! You read it right… that is 2.8 million bucks for a camera, that’s the price a 1923 Leica O-series sold for at auction last Saturday setting a new world record. Apparently only a dozen of these cameras exist in the world today and this one was said to be in […]

During the middle of the day the sun is high and harsh and makes photo’s look flat and boring. During the […]
