Desert Rose
Days are too short. Fabulous Fridays even shorter, I’ll be very lucky to even make one photograph today. Thought I’d get a shot in when I woke up and it was raining! Must’ve been a small cloud burst which dried up before I had my camera set up. I'm too slow. Dashed outside just in...
Spotlight On An Ordinary Day
There’s nothing quite like volunteer work is there? Today I sat/lay for a student while she learnt how to apply eyelash extensions! I woke up to the pitty patter of rain drops on the bedroom window this morning, this did not auger well, but I manned up and decided to embrace the day! ...
Going Corporate - Portraiture
Wisdom to know what to do with what I know was what I had to do with this commission. The client has the law behind them, the gift of the gab and the confidence to enforce all three! This is what I did: Sent a missive by email to all members of the staff regarding their...
Backing Basics On A Tuesday
Every time I download my photographs for this “project” I get a nasty knot in my stomach, it’s very much like waiting to write an examination. Today is an ordinary Tuesday. A back to reality day, the weekend’s a thing of the past. It’s back to doing the laundry, watering the plants and the...

Shell We?
“There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.” Ansel Adams. When is a photograph “good”, not necessarily Ansel Adams good, but good by your standards, when it gets a million clicks on Instagram? When it’s liked 2K times on FaceBook or Twitter or when Pixolo says...
Fern Funny First
It’s a sloshy Saturday and a Mission Impossible. Abort! A voice screams. But, procrastination is the thief of time. That’s a fact. Mondays are a good day to start: dieting, fasting, a new project or a new leaf. That’s if you toe the line, not when you zig when everyone else zags. ...
A Photographic Walk
Today was a walk in the park. A delightful day of taking photogaphs of some the people I encounter in my daily life. As Bruce Gilden says "I love the people I photograph. I mean, they're my friends. I've never met most of them or I don't know them at all, yet through my images I live...
