Instax Australia recently shared an article I wrote on their blog. I had so much fun journalling about my trip to Broome but also photographing and creating the content for the article. If you’re into instant cameras, Instax Australia frequently releases articles, tips and tricks on using their various instant cameras. Definitely check them out!
Urban Photography in Perth City, Western Australia
Since I stopped working in Perth city a few years ago, I’m not often in the city during the week. A few weeks ago, I was in the city for a work-related meeting on a Thursday afternoon. After the meeting I took the opportunity to hang around for an hour or so to do some late afternoon street photography. Fellow photographer Robert also managed to join me briefly towards the end of my walk. The 4.30pm to 5.30pm was pretty good. I loved the long shadows and warm light. As it was a Thursday afternoon, there weren’t a lot of people out and about in the City. It was mostly people rushing home after work. After 5.30pm the streets were relatively empty. I managed to get a few street scenes with people in it.
[Read more…]Fremantle Photowalk around WA Maritime Museum
It’s March 2020 as I’m writing up this blog post. I haven’t been as active on my blog as I had hope for 2020 due to personal and professional reasons. As COVID-19 has evolved into a global pandemic, my professional work has gotten much busier as I work in the healthcare industry. On the flip side, social distancing measures has meant all my social and personal commitments has dropped off. This has also meant I’ve found some time to work on editing my very large backlog of photos over the weekend. I finally finished culling, reviewing and editing the last chunk of photos from my New Zealand roadtrip from a few years ago (more on that in future blog posts!). I also picked out some keeper photos from my photowalk around WA Maritime Museum in Fremantle last year.
Around 6 months ago, I spent the a few of hours of a Sunday afternoon exploring around WA Maritime Museum and the streets of Fremantle. Coincidentally the day we decided to walk around Fremantle was also the day there was a massive number of photographers and models doing some group shoots around Fremantle. They spent a lot of time shooting around the museum so it was hards not to bump into a photographer!
I haven’t seen these photos since I first took the photos in the first place. I was pleasantly surprised at how many photos I liked from this afternoon of shooting. Unfortunately I didn’t bother taking my tripod with me for this photowalk. Otherwise I might have been able to get some nice long exposure photos as around sunset/after sunset time. I also decided to experiment with some high dynamic range photomerge images for a bit of fun when I was photo editing. See if you can spot which ones they are!
Thanks for stopping by today and happy shooting (indoors).

Unoffical Fuji X Aus Sydney Meetup
I spent 4 days in Sydney at the end of September to attend a friend’s wedding (who also happens to be a photographer) and took the opportunity to explore a bit more of Sydney. During this short getaway, I met with with fellow Fuji X Aus Sydney-siders as well as John from Adelaide for a Sunday morning photo walk. It was so timely that both myself and John were in Sydney the same weekend. We kicked off our meetup with some coffee at Kurtosh then walked around Darling Square, Darling Harbour and a bit of the CBD. The Sydney crew was so welcoming towards us interstate visitors! Couldn’t have asked for a more friendly bunch of photographers. It was great to put some faces to the names and online exchanges that I have had with some of the photographers in the group. That has always been the best part about the Fuji X Aus community. I didn’t expect more than 2 other photographers to be free to catch up, but it turned out to be a group of 7 of us!
[Read more…]Staycation at QT Hotel in Perth
A couple of months ago, we decided to do a 1-night staycation at QT Perth. It was a public holiday long weekend and rather than travelling interstate or join the bustle of driving down south to the wine region, we decided to make QT Perth our home away from home. Since my last visit to QT Perth as a volunteer photographer for Open House Perth, I’ve been interested in actually staying at QT Perth. I was attracted to it’s modern and whimsical architecture and interior. The hotel experience didn’t disappoint.
