  • Emerald Lake

    To the east of Melbourne, quite close to the city, there are some low called the Dandenongs (the Dandenong Ranges). Don’t confuse them with the suburb of Dandenong, which is in a completely different place—and unlike the hills, it’s known… Continue reading

  • The garden at Broughton Hall

    South Gippsland just keeps surprising me. You’d think I’d driven it back and forth a hundred times, but nope—there’s always somewhere new to stumble across. And what a place this turned out to be. This time I came across the… Continue reading

  • The Autumn HDR

    Just check out my new video. If you’re wondering why it’s so unusually bright and colourful—and you’re a bit of a nerd or geek who loves geeking out over the technical details—then read on. For the normal people out there,… Continue reading

  • Platypus Lake

    In the Dandenong Ranges there’s a little town called Belgrave. It’s a cosy, good-looking place, mostly home to people who are a bit better off than average. But this time I’m not writing about Belgrave itself — it’s about one… Continue reading

    There’s this nice little spot out in the far eastern suburbs of Melbourne — Berwick. It’s a public park made for wholesome family outings, which normally isn’t really my thing. Still, I ended up going there — twice actually —… Continue reading

  • Dimmicks beach

  • Labassa Mansion

    My latest photo adventure started in the usual way — by poking around on Google Maps. At one point my eye caught a little camera icon. The place was called Labassa Mansion, and it was in Caulfield North. Caulfield North… Continue reading

  • Koonya Beach

    The ocean shore at sunset is something every photographer shoots. It’s as standard as a bowl of porridge. It’s usually beautiful on its own, and you’d have to really try hard to take an ugly photo. I’ve managed it sometimes… Continue reading

  • Kangaroos in Seawinds Gardens

    The holiday’s over, and there’s not much time left for photo and video adventures. So this time I’m sharing something that’s not new — it was filmed back in early December. Honestly, I wasn’t even planning to post this for… Continue reading

  • The Nobbies

    I’ve got a bit of a problem when it comes to heading out into nature for photography — I’ve basically been everywhere already, at least around Melbourne. No exaggeration: if you close your eyes and randomly point at a spot… Continue reading
