I'm plugged in for an hour during our grocery and supplies run into Queenstown, and I just wanted to let friends and family know that yes, I am alive. When I was picked up at the airport, I was informed that we'd be heading out to Camp Hill, passed Glenorchy ... Read more >

Another milestone birthday it is for me today. I'm 35, believe it or not. My tradition of going to a special place continued today as Craig Smith and a couple of his mates, Karen and Mike, and I would jump aboard his fishing boat and cruise across Lake ... Read more >

I got my first camera when I was four years old; it was bright red and only took 110 format film in those funny-shaped canisters. Fast-forward nineteen years and my gear hasn't been upgraded all that much, and I've still never had a single photography ...
