Two Shots of Birds
At an old flat there was a Starling who was building a next in the house nest door. Managed to get these shots by hanging out a window and waiting.
I named him/her George… Not really sure why.

Cross Processed Flowers
When you cross process Fuji Velvia 50 ISO (develop a colour transparency film using a colour Negative process) you get a lot of green.

Dragon Stilt Girl
Seen at Cuba Street Carnival, Wellington
I went to the street carnival initially shooting with my 80-200mm lens but gave up the tele lens and swapped to my 50mm after taking this one shot. I havent use my tele for street shooting since. Wish Id swapped lenses before I took this image.
I like the eye contact in this image.

Death of a Motorcycle
I guess motor scooters aren’t supposed to go on BMX tracks.
I never found out if it was stolen of if the owner just got angry and destroyed it.
Id like to point out that I use the term “motorcycle” pretty loosely here 🙂
This is a good example of some scanning machines not being able to handle the grain from a film like Ilford Delta 3200 very well. I need to re-scan these so the grain is less mushy.

Fatherhood Friday 12:
Still inundated with colds… Emily is now on antibiotics and it sounds like we are a house full of smokers… a coughing symphony if you will.
Emily and I are going skiing in a couple of weeks (yes I have already worked out what camera equipment I am going to take) and Grandma and Grandad sent Emily up some mittens and goggles hence the photo. Thank you Grandma and Grandad! We are both looking forward to coming down to see you.
Samantha: Â Seems to be the most healthy one here and is getting into as many things as possible while the rest of us are being a bit slow to react.
Both pictures from this morning
