Shooting the shooter
I’ve been on holidays the past few weeks, taking in Kersey, London, Amsterdam, Dortmund, Cologne, Berlin, Athens and Milos.
Oddly i found that i didn’t have the desire to shoot much. So it’s probably one of my least photographed holidays ever, but one of the most enjoyable.
When i met up with Cybele in Greece and saw [...]
Gone Fishing
I’m off on a road trip to Byron Bay today, then off to Fiji to see me sister for New Years.
Updates will be quiet here but I will be twittering.
Hope you’re all enjoying your holidays and good eating.
See you in 2009.
I just booked a holiday in September
Back to the US and UK i go.
Leaving on a jetplane
I’m catching a plane to Thailand this afternoon. I’ve got a few nights in Bangkok, a few nights in Ko Tao with a wedding in between.
See you on the other side.
Back from Fiji
It was lovely, as you’d expect. A proper tropical paradise. We spent most of our time on a resort called Amunuca on Tokoriki island.
I took less photos than i expected, the camera really only came out at dawn and dusk.
One casualty of the trip was my fancy phone. It was soaked through after [...]
Gone Fishing. In Fiji.
I’m jack of this freezing Sydney weather – i’m off to Fiji.
I’ll be out of radio contact for 7 days. See you on the other side.
New York finale
And to put my USA pictures to rest here’s my photos from New York.
I love New York so much. Every time i visit i have the most awesome time and meet so many great people. One of these days i’ll get off my arse and move over there.
After the R&R of Vegas New York was [...]

Kirsten Dunst’s boyfriend, Johnny [...]
True tales of San Francisco
My trip to the US is all but a distant memory but i did take some pictures to remember it by. Most never made it to the blog – so allow me to reminisce.
First up is some photos from San Francisco where i spent a few days with me old mate Krankiboy. I’ll [...]
Australian Acts at SXSW
As usual Airborne put on a great show to a packed out crowd. There were quite a few locals headbanging along – and Joel did his usual thing of jumping on the bar and playing his guitar along it.
I didn’t manage to catch Dallas Crane play but i did see them at an Aussie [...]
Leaving Las Vegas for NYC
I’ve touched down in New York City on the final leg of my USA tour. Like last time i was here, i’m being graciously hosted by Jamie Boud, this time also sharing his place with Deborah and two cats.
Not only is it good staying with Jamie because he’s good company and has a sweet warehouse [...]
Arriving in Las Vegas
Life is pretty sweet when you get picked up at Las Vegas airport by your friends in a BMW, drive back to their house and drop your stuff. Then head out in a Porsche convertible to the edge of town and take in the sunset against Red Rock Canyon.
SXSW interactive panels
It’s not just been parties here in Austin for the interactive festival. I’ve attended lots of panels and exchanged lots of cards. Above is Dan Rather, veteran US TV news journalist.
Today i saw a keynote address by Will Wright, he’s the brains behind games such as Sim City and The Sims. He showed off [...]
Austin – Day 4
I’m now nearing the end of SXSW interactive in Austin, having also spent a few marvellous days enjoying San Francisco.
SXSW interactive is a conference of web geeks like me – people who understand the need to hop online every few hours, to check Flickr, email and twitter. People who come home from a night out [...]
Back from holidays
It’s been a bit quiet on the blogging front since i’ve been away from the internets. I’ve spent the past couple of weeks on holidays in Melbourne, Daylesford (in the Victorian countryside) and at Blueys Beach, on the NSW coast about 5 hours drive north of Sydney.
It’s been bliss spending time with friends, [...]
Happy holidays
A few random photos from my Flickr photostream for the holidays.
Hope you’ve had a good few days off amongst friends and family.
I’m flying off to Melbourne this afternoon to spend a week in the countryside, so things will be rather quiet round here. Have yourselves a fun new years.
Thanks to all of you [...]
Sickness Takes Hold
Ugh. I am sick, i’ve got some hideous American flu which has knocked me for 6. I haven’t gone outside in over 24 hours. I haven’t eaten anything but potato chips. I spent the day in semi delerium trying not to think about the amazing bands i missed today.
I never get sick, why [...]
How’re y’all doin? SXSW Update
I’ve been busy attending SXSW Interactive panel sessions, talking to people, taking photos, drinking beer and eating Mexican. I’ve tried to blog the panel sessions but haven’t found the words. Plenty of notes have been taken and most of the speakers are putting their presentations online so i’ll compile everything together at some point.
One of [...]
