Little India, Singapore, 2001: Sri Veerama Kaliamman Temple on Serangoon Road… Canon EOS 100, Sigma 28-105

Kingdom Come… and gone…

Mirimar peninsular, Wellington, 2010: The rotting set for the beleaguered film “Kingdom Come” has been dismantled. The $180 million dollar feature about the life of Jesus was scheduled to be shot in 2009, but ran into financial difficulty soon after… It seems we may have been saved- at least for now- from another Jesus epic… […]

Pencarrow

Pencarrow, Wellington, New Zealand, 2010; Canon EOS 1N/ Canon EF 17-40 f4 L / Fuji Velvia 50

Vardar

Skopje , Republic of Macedonia, 2002: The Vardar river flows through Skopje south to the Greek border and the Aegaen sea beyond… These cyclist’s look kinda sifty- like they really didn”t want their photo taken… Canon EOS 100 / Sigma 28-105

Novi Sad

Novi Sad, Vojvodina, Serbia, 2002: I felt like the only tourist in town, I probably was… I was still recovering from the drilling I got at the border and deserved a treat, so I splashed out on a room in a hotel overlooking the square. Is it me or does that statue look like it […]

Graffiti point

Wellington, NZ, 2011: Shot some pictures a few nights ago up above Wellington Airport… Simon from Darkhalide had been here before… a slightly dodgy area of Strathmore… an abandoned WW2 era radio relay station/defence bunker network that had been blitzed with graffiti….. Canon EOS 30D / Canon 18-55is

Valle dei templi

Agrigento, Sicily, 2004: The Valle de templi, or Valley of the Temples- is ironically actually situated on a ridge… Did this name originate from some sort of ancient Sicilian-Greek humour…? Agrigento (or ancient Akragas) is a major tourist drawcard. Its buildings are some of the largest and best preserved outside of Greece and are listed […]

Slightly-in-focus

Pencarrow, Wellington, 2011: Another go at an HDR at Pencarrow- multiple (long) exposures, albeit in monochrome… Canon EOS 30D / Pentacon 50mm 1.8 / Marumi ND400

Devaster

Wellington, New Zealand, 2010/2011: This is what happens when you botch-up developing black and white film. I struggled with loading the film onto the spool, got my fingerprints all over it in the process, couldn’t load the entire roll on the reel, and stuffed up the developing time. A bit of a “devaster”- but with […]
