Rundle St during the Adelaide Fringe. In the middle of ‘Mad March’ 2019. The last year before COVID happened. Remember times like this before social distancing? I just went for a walk in the evening with the Leica M10 and snapped away. People were happy and carefree. The night was...
A long exposure shot of Harrods Department Store in London taken during the summer. I like long exposure at night. It reveals something normally unseen with the natural/available light and shadows and brings out details in the architecture that normally you don’t get to see. In this case, a sense...
This was just an image grabbed on my smartphone. I was running back home after being caught in a heavy downpour, but then, I saw this photo opportunity as I rounded a corner and snapped it. The old gentlemen catching shelter under an old store eve. It was a cold...
I shot this back in 2014 on Ilford Pan F 50 Black and White Film, and hand developed in Ilford Chemistry. I took it from the observation deck of Menara Kuala Lumpur Tower (aka KL Tower/KL421) on a day when KL was remarkably clear and not hazy. I got lucky...
A colour scheme from the 1990s. Which is why is was so fitting to take this shot on a somewhat niche older film. Coles Express in Australia is a bit of a roadside icon. I just like the look of the 1990s vintage colours and layout, nothing in them has...
Taken in October 2018. Today, in October 2022, I went on a photowalk around Gawler. Nothing inspired me. I think I’ve been getting caught in a bit of a photo rift lately, and haven’t felt as inspired or keen to pull out the camera and take photos. It disturbs me...
Push Pin Boutique on Compton St Adelaide A vintage style store that sells vintage fashion in Adelaide. I think that good urban photography should have a timeless style to it. So you cannot really tell when the photo was taken. That is what I really like about this part of...
Capturing candid, unmediated chance encounters: That is what street photography is about. I think that is what is captured here. That, and an unusual perspective. Sometimes to make a photo seem more interesting, it is worth trying to find an unusual perspective, to make the scale of different aspects seem...
I’m a Leica Street photographer, traveller, avid reviewer, marketer and blogger. I am, by my own admission, a gear nut but I don’t buy gear just to test it or pixel peep. I’m only interested in the art that can be produced with the gear. And seeing what emotions can be brought out in those who see my photos.
