  • Tourists

    Tourists
    Living slightly outside Mitte we haven’t had much to do with tourists so far, basically everyone we meet in the street are locals from the neighborhood. Yesterday however we went to Potsdamer platz and it is definitely a tourist hub in Berlin. I actually had thought we were going shopping so didn’t bring my Pentax so only had my phone on me. Thanks however to Google autoawesome I ended up with an animation of half a dozen shots of the Brandenburg Tor, plus an autoawesome eraser where most of the tourists were removed from the shot.

    Destined for sauce, the over-ripe and blemished tomatoes at the end of my tomato crop this year.

  • QPAC light show


    IMGP7577 – QPAC, a photo by RaeAllen on Flickr.

    Came across this interesting light show on the side of the Queensland Performing Arts Centre.

    It was actually the morning sun refracting from the angled glass windows of the new section of the Brisbane Convention Centre

  • Returning to the scene of the crime

    While we tend to do a good job with stories as they unfold, we often fail to follow-up. What happens after the court case, the flood, the award winning?

    With or without you is a Reuters story, returning to the story behind one of their high profile images from the Japanese Tsunami.

    The main image is one of those great shots, but more interesting to me in this ‘revisit’ context, is the three images of Yuko Sugimoto on the highway.

    These three photos show a consistent style, starting with Yuko’s own dilemma, and concluding with her son replacing the photo in her arms.

    This sort of presentation style is outside our current CMS, but it would work in a blog post, and will be possible in our new Core Media CMS.

  • Balance in a photo

    This is a good example of balance in a photo. Notice the bench with the two friends in the top left third junction, balanced by the bicycle in the bottom right third.

  • Remembrance Day 11.11.11 11:11:11

    Remembrance Day

    I made a special trip to Toowong Cemetery and the war graves there to take this Remembrance Day photo this year.

    I sat with the talking clock on my phone so I could take it at precisely 11.11.11 11:11:11

    Unfortunately my camera clock wasn’t set as accurately.
