"When your world moves too fast and you lose yours

"When your world moves too fast and you lose yourself in the chaos, introduce yourself to each colour of the sunset.” – Christy Ann Martine

A few shots from sunset and the moonrise Tuesday evening from up on Mount Taylor.

The amazing colours that are on tap when you look around. East or West, there is a riot of colours in our skies at the end of the day. Then add in the cheesy look of the moon when it first rises in our East and even in these weird times, there are things to be grateful for...

“For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us.” — Richard H. Baker

Dream Horse 🐴

This shot from one of the last times I was able to be at my favourite place before lockdown.

I wanted to create a dreamy feel to the shot. So by doing a long exposure during the day which would allow me to blow out all of the highlights and help achieve the effect.

I can't wait to be able to go back.

Until then, it's a dream I'm looking forward to living again.

Lockdowns extended again in ACT! What to do?

Maybe, like me, you can reminisce about the times that Live Music was everywhere and hope that sometime soon we can get back to it. To do that, you need this!

From the eyes and hands of over 50 Australian photographers, this book contains 350 colour and B+W images of 200+ Australian artists, all taken in the year leading up to the 2020 lockdown.

Raising money for @supportact

Book can be purchased here! https://2019ayearbeforelockdown.com/

I have been honoured to be part of this book with a number of images alongside an amazing group of photographers.

Just also like to pass on my thanks to the owners past and present of @thebasementcanberra for giving us the best venue in Canberra to see these awesome bands and to capture these moments. So...

Silhouette!

"Most people chasing their dreams don't see the bigger picture, they just see the silhouette. Make the vision real." - Joel Brown

Getting out in nature there is a blessing. I think I may have taken that for granted a bit, particularly what we have around us. The ACT's lockdown has meant a chance to start exploring my local area a bit more again while exercising. Funnily enough just as I was planning to go for a walk into the Urambi Hills over the weekend, I had a memory surface on FB that it had been four years to the day since I had last been in here. There is so much in this world in our own back yard. We only have to look and be grateful.

Missing live music?

Yep, same here! Hoping that we can get through this situation soon and get back to being able to see our favourite bands without the threat of cancellation due to lockdown. Until then...
