Wild Pair

Another slightly blurry image from the Rollei.

What I really like about this image is the placement of the “Wild Pair” sign between the two (totally by accident)

Canon Photo5 Competition Registration

Just sent off pre-registration for this years Canon EOS Photo5 competition (Click here for last years competition)

After you register they send you a small box with 5 photo briefs in it which you have to shoot. It was pretty fun and I especially enjoyed working out what I was going to shoot.

If you are in NZ or Aus registrations open on the 10th of Sept… Check it out and have a go 🙂

Last year the briefs were:

Hundreds and thousands for a Macro shot

Practically Black

Some paint powder for a “Splat” shot

A pair of cardboard glasses for a portrait

Bokeh masks to create Bokeh effects

Thought I would show last years entry (and yes I know I dont shoot canon but who cares…)

Hundreds and thousands

Splat

Practically Black

I ran out of time to do the other 2 briefs but managed to get some test shots done

Here go a couple of Bokeh test shots…

Fatherhood Friday 22: Sandcastles

Yay it’s finally spring! (this side of the globe anyway)

When Amanda and Samantha went down south to see Amanda’s Nanna a couple of weeks ago Krispin came to visit so we decided to go to the beach for a treat for Emily.

Samantha is fully running around now and getting into everything she is not supposed to… So basically being a one year old.

Broken Machine

I only just noticed when I looked at the developed image that the gutter laying machine was missing a wheel and in the process of being repaired…

Fits in quite well with the whole broken thing…

More Broken

Broken umbrella found at the corner of Dixon Street and Victoria Street.

Finding broken things seems to be becoming a bit of a theme… Hmmmmm …
