Sunday 21st Feb meant 2 things – my 21st birthday, and Soundwave!
Being my birthday, there was no way I was going to work, but I did go to Soundwave as a fan, armed with a point and shoot!
It was great fun going to events with a punter point of view for once!

Then on Tuesday 23rd [...]

Over the past few days I’ve been experimenting with different long exposure techniques. I’ve wired up some LED toys and played with kinetic photography. Here are some of the results.

Late last year, I bought a whole bunch of fairy lights. Most people only have them out for a few weeks around Christmas, but I quite enjoy having them out all year round as a bokeh machine. Here are some of the shots:

You can see more of my bokeh shots here.

This is by no means a great shoot for me, there was an insane photo policy and half of the 5 mins we got were darkness. We weren’t even in the pit for an entire song. It was wierd. I guess this is the best of a bad bunch.

I think I enjoy light painting because it’s a more arty form of [...]

Oh my goodness. This guy is amazing. He’s a maniac. He never keeps still (except to play the keyboard, and then he’s still crazy). I’d shoot him again and again if given the opportunity.
I spent all of yesterday feeling sick and sorry for myself, thanks to the erratic weather Sydney’s been copping. By night I [...]

For the first time in Project 365, I decided to do a photomanipulation. I found a tutorial on PSDtuts that I liked, so I thought I’d give it a go.

It’s hard to believe, but I’m 60 days down in Project 365. It’s a simple idea – take a photo everyday for a year. Sounds simple enough, but it’s really pushing me to explore more and more ideas. Here is a slideshow of the pictures so far, but you can also see them here.
