Looking for Something
Another bird, and it’s a purple swamphen and it was walking around looking like it was looking for something. It probably was looking for food. Maybe. I don’t know what swamphens eat, so… yeah. I hope you enjoy.

Self-portrait, Late 2025
This was taken on the drive home from Bathurst. I wanted to get a dramatic, moody photo of myself, and the best one I got was with my phone which I took as reference. This is the next best one. … Continue reading

Framing the Face
This is another reference photo that turned out well enough to share. I was thinking about trying to get form in what I hoped would be an interesting way, and I think I did, but this one I’m not much … Continue reading

To the Shoulder
Just another reference photo. I’m not sure what I like about this one. It’s just kind of interesting. Not good; just interesting. This is my submission into Leanne Cole‘s “Monochrome Madness” for this week. The next one is hosted by Margaret … Continue reading

Shadow Net
This is one of those photos I want to retake, but see no reason to as it works well as it is. Just a good shot, I feel. Vague and specific, and suggestive of structure. I hope you enjoy.

I took this photo specifically for Leanne Cole‘s “Monochrome Madness” (Brian of Bushboy’s World is hosting with the theme of “Ceramics”). Wanted to try and get something arty. It kind of worked. I’ve had this mug for around eleven years … Continue reading

Disappearing Face
Yet another reference photo, and an odd one. I was trying to be somewhat intentional with how I was posing, but also a bit loose. I didn’t want to come off as rigid and I wanted to be clear. I … Continue reading

Shadowed Sight
Another practise photo that turned out well. At least, I think it turned out well. You could probably argue that this image speaks to a loss of sense of identity we might try to protect ourselves from. A loss of … Continue reading
