I’ve returned from Bali with 1600 photos and a sore butt. Before you crack the jokes – the soreness is from Waterbom’s water slides. I must have gone down the slides at least 30 times, bruising my arse to a nice deep azure. 1600 photo in 5 days seems excessive surely, but this is one of the first times in all my trips to Bali that I had a chance to focus so much time and energy into taking pics.Read more

Handphones are destroying memories (handphone cameras vs point and shoot cameras)
What a bold statement to make, right? Having lived in Indonesia for half a decade, I’ve witnessed a revolution in handphone/cellphone technology – a revolution which swept across Asia and throughout the world. Upon my arrival, handphones were something you used to call someone with – and that’s about all.

Tanah Lot – a Hindu temple well known around the world. It’s difficult to photograph something like this without leaving a feeling of “seen that before”. I would have enjoyed seeing it during sunset, but unfortunately was on a time constraint. I’m fairly happy with the results in black and white, but wish now that I would have captured it from more varied angles. In my opinion, some of the world’s best temples, buildings, and structures are taken from natureRead more
Bali in Black
Rice terraces Tanah Lot I’m starting to go through the hundreds of shots taken on two days of shooting in Bali. I find it difficult at times to capture the scenes without giving off a feeling of “been there, seen that”. I can’t help but take some typical tourist shots – I can only hope that, at times, I’ll find something a bit different or a new way of seeing something. The problem now is that my brother has beenRead more
