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

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…

Looks like someone must have a faulty fire alarm in their building since this seems to be the 3rd or 4th call out in as many weeks.
I guess it gives these guys some practice.

Building being gutted behind Manners Street… Looks like it used to be a theatre of some sort even though I don’t remember one being there.
The bottom shot is taken from the roof of the Lombard car parking building.

Work colleague…
Collector and reseller of cameras, mostly antique…

Self proclaimed inventor of “Drive by Shootings” (photographic)…
co-conspirator of many late night shoots…
Halo (PC) Fan… Have yet to turn to the dark side of Xbox Halo 🙂
Unaware I took the image until after I had taken it…

A new way of solving the problem of car parking?
Maybe just scouting a junk yard 🙂
Unfortunately the rest of this shoot got sacrificed to the film gods when I was processing 2 120 films at once and the overlapped in the middle ruining half of each film 😦  A mistake that I wont make twice…

Saw this shot on Cuba Street looking through the people doing yoga as a pacifist protest against China…

Just incase you missed it here is an enlargement…

I havent done one of these in a while, mostly due to a backlog of film that I have to develop 🙂
Things have been slowly moving towards summer with the weather getting better and more opportunities to head outside and play in the sun.
Street shooting Mondays have been reinstated with Sam in the backpack and us roaming through town looking for photo opportunities (and occasionally playgrounds).
Emily is getting very excited about christmas already and we have started to put up our christmas tree with a few decorations being put on it each night. The tree is looking slightly comical due to the fact that most decorations are on the top third of the tree away from where Sam can get them.
