Morning at Ashfield Station
This one is quite similar to many shots I’ve taken before, but perhaps a little different due to what is in the frame. I like the way the detail comes through in this image. I also like that it feels … Continue reading

Out From Under
A train as seen this morning at Ashfield Station. Whilst I do like the contrast between motion and stillness, I’m more interested in the contrast between light and dark as it makes the train almost feel different to itself despite … Continue reading

Docked
A photo taken back in February during the mass rainfall in NSW. Whilst you can see some of it, I think this photo captures the suggestion more than it does overtly display it. I think that this is the case … Continue reading
