More






These photographs were taken yesterday, in the city. I deliberately tried to do a few different things with them. I acknowledge that these are ridiculously-tiny baby steps in artistic terms (particularly as I am not sure if I even have an artistic mind). However, it's exciting to be able to see a potential shot, and then go at least part of the way toward capturing what I've seen (or what I think I've seen).

...So I'm at least being a little more disciplined about posting a photograph each week. The deadline is also encouraging me to try new things with both the camera itself, and in terms of the composition of a shot. In a way, I'm hopeful that I'll look back on these photographs in six months and reflect on how I've developed my skills. But for the time being, I am really enjoying taking the odd shot that I'm somewhat proud of. It does help, however, to have such a sublime subject...

Catching up?

Well, I only managed to meet Matt's deadline once. Very very poor.
I think part of the problem is that I've been discouraged by the photographs I've been taking lately. Nevertheless, I'll persevere. Here are some of my favourites from the past few weeks;

Collins Rd, 11/04/2009. I find this picture particularly important to me, as it was the road used by my sister and her children to escape the recent fires.
