I’ve been a blogger for many years, since 2005 in fact, and own a few blogs on various topics. Firm believer that you should keep your blog focused on one topic – although you may have many categories under that one topic. In this case, this blog relates to photography and the categories relate to…

Birds in Motion
In the photography forums we talk about getting BIF images – Birds in Flight. It’s a challenge to all those who enjoy ‘birding’ (bird photography) and I certainly fit into that category. It is one of the most challenging but satisfying goals I know. Below are recent images taken at Birdsland Reserve over the past…
Updates at Flickr
Flickr.com has updated its system and is now offering Pro members unlimited space for uploading their full resolution images. Love that they’re giving us extra space – I’ll certainly use it as I have over 8,000 images uploaded there now.

Hair with wind going through it, a man turning pages of a book, steam from a kettle. Absolutely amazing. Is this…
Make it RAW month
In March I’m going to endeavour to take all of my photos in RAW, rather than JPEG format. I’ve been reading and learning a lot. Belonging to forums like the Australian Photography Forum is a great place to hang out as it has a mixture of experienced and newbie photographers as well as professional and…
