Downsized

Wellington, October 2011: Spotted this random pair of footwear while street-shooting the other week. Someone obviously thought they required downsizing… Canon EOS 30D/18-55is

Fortlight

Wellington, NZ, lastnight: Fort Buckley was one of five forts constructed in 1885 around Port Nicholson (Wellington Harbour) to protect the capital from the threat of the expanding Russian Empire. Wellington had no defences at all, yet had the national gold reserve in the vaults of the Bank Of New Zealand. Check out Darkhalide for […]

Photospace, Wellington, 2011: Darkhalide exiting Photospace looking a little bit like a Ninja on a mission… He just happens to be 37 aswell… Mamiya ZM/Mamiya 35mm f2.8/Fuji Superia 400

Hand Of

Karori, Wellington, NZ; Karori Cemetary circa 2008/9. Fuji Velvia cross processed. The hand of Jesus is missing on a statue in Karori cemetary. I was there at the behest of Darkhalide.

Brussels, Belgium, 2004: The inner sanctum of the “Atomium”- see earlier post. It still had that futuristic/utopian look- albeit the worse for wear in 2004. Later I discovered it had been closed and renovated in 2005, and now looks all flash. Canon EOS A2E/28-105

Luxsign

Luxor, Egypt, 2005: The old and the new… A traffic sign with the ancient city of Thebes in the background. Egypt is a country full of contrasts and contradictions -not to mention history; and hopefully with the recent unprecedented revolution- a country full of promise…. Canon EOS 55/Canon 28-135is

Irn-Bru

Camden, London, 1998: I had a pub job for a couple of months on Camden high street. Living up-stairs gave me the opportunity for some interesting shots- it was a mad time in Camden town! Irn-Bru is a bright orange soft drink- the name originates from it’s connections with the Scottish Steel/Iron works where it […]
