Day Twenty Four - Nick Hills

I need to get a little more creative with my titles. Spent most of today playing my guitar. I also shot a clip with my brother this morning to finish off the bmx dvd.

This was taken tonight at EC skatepark just around the corner from my house. My housemate and good friend Nick Hills. I love this guy. I miss taking bmx photos. Winter blows. That said I need to start riding my bike more.

Day Twenty Three - Max


A day late uploading. Yesterday was pretty busy and my head was working in overdrive with thoughts swirling around everywhere which didn't give me much of a drive to pick up my camera.

Nothing too interesting. Just Max and the creamy bokeh of my 50mm f1.8 mmmmm.

Candid photos of people are really interesting. I would definately like to do more of these. Time for a 80-200mm f2.8. bring on the tax return! I also need to get over my fear of photographing strangers. I want to be able to walk up to people and ask if i can photograph them. I need to break my photography comfort zone.
