Fatherhood Friday 30: Twas The Night Before Christmas… Half Frame Styles
Well kinda the day before christmas and in some parts of the world when I publish this, the day before the night before christmas… Wow that was pretty confusing…
As you can probably guess the girls are all pretty excited and riled up (all 3 of them, big one included).
One last shopping foray to complete for the girls to get each other a present and then its time to kick back and relax… At least until Boxing day when I’m working again.

Rainy Night at The Bus Station
While waiting for a friend at the bus station I shot a couple of images… This was by far the best one.
Great eye contact with the camera… I didn’t notice when I took it… I love how film still surprises me from time to time 🙂

Window Dresser Through Window
I seem to be taking lots of images through windows at the moment…

Negative Space Portrait
This is definitely one of my favourite shots that I have taken recently.
A portrait within a portrait…

A Couple of Half Frame Sequences
Another couple of sequence shots from the loaner Canon Demi Half Frame Camera.
They are both off the first roll I put through it where I stuffed up which way to shoot and had to turn the images in Photoshop…Hence the weird light leaks don’t match up…
I think the person in the first one makes the shot… but that’s just me 🙂

Bus Casuality on Manners Street
As I was coming back from getting lunch I noticed a group of people clustered around someone on the footpath. As I got closer it turned out to be someone who had just stepped out onto the street without looking both ways (day 3 of the new road layout where buses go both ways on a previously one way street) and was hit by a bus.
Lets just say that this was a really hard image to take and I think this comes across in the image itself… it probably didn’t help that I was shooting 50 ISO film… but I think the camera shake adds some anonymity to the image.

Fatherhood Friday 29: 8 Sleeps til Christmas
Wow! Where did the year go?
Emily is getting very excited and pretty much every night before bed saying “I hope Santa comes tonight”.
The christmas tree has been up for a number of weeks and Samantha has only nearly pulled it over once so far and has been remarkably good about not opening the presents that have started to appear under it from various well organised relatives 🙂
The bike track is still under construction but they have the small people track finished, Emily is getting super fast going around a I can hardly keep up with her on my bike… Looks like there is going to be another daredevil in the family….

Bag Slogan
So much going on in this image…took me a while to notice the slogan on the bag.

It Must Have Been Cold
It must have been a cold night in the Alley…. Not sure how the heating would have helped but you never know…

Sunday Assisting Job
I had an assisting job yesterday with photographer Bev Short… We have done quite a bit of work together and she is reasonably cool with me taking shots like this where usually it would be frowned upon.
It was an image for her book shot around a car wreckers yard… Needless to say we were all filthy by the end of it 🙂
I like that the strobe is in the engine bay… for some reason it amuses me.
More shots of wrecked cars to come…
