Photo a Day Challenge - Day 125 You

When I visited Hong Kong back in 2010, I got to catch up with a turf colleague who's the Track Manager for both Happy Valley and Sha Tin, Hong Kong Jockey Club. Here we are, just past the finish post at Sha Tin...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 124 Bird

I was out spotting in Melbourne, and along the airport viewing park, is a rural area where a lot of birds flock. On this occassion, there was a flock of Crows. This little fellow is sitting on a road sign just off the road...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 123 Fun

Last month, it was the 2012 Royal Easter Show, and we had the best fun... On the days it wasn't raining though of course!! Here is the view from the top of the Ferris Wheeel, looking down on Side Show Alley. I used an iPhone App to give it a 'tilt-shift' appearance.

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 121 Skyline(s)

I've been lucky enough to see a few skylines in my travels, yet nothing seems to surpass that of Sydney's. And this is not just that its my home city either, its the type of construction, its textures, and of course, surrounded by the magnificant harbour... The only one that comes close, is that of Hong Kong, especially when viewed from atop of Victoria Peak...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 120 Peace

Recently, an organised airside tour gave us the opportunity of photographing 'up close and personal' to the active runway in Sydney... Here, a QF Boeing 767-300 is taxiing past where we were located, and he gave us the 'PEACE' sign - cool hey!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 118 Circle

London, 2010... it may not be in 'full frame', but I had a very limited opportunity to get this shot! So I worked with what I had at the time, and I am pretty happy with the result! The idea of getting a 'silhouette' style photography appeals to me...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 117 1pm

I honestly have nothing to do for this one, how bad am I?? But now, thinking about it, it will be at least 1pm SOMEWHERE, right?? But what I will do, is post a random photo, but if you look closely at the post time, guess what, its 1pm!!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 116 Somewhere you went

The other night, we went out on the town to do some night photography. We shot across to Circular Quay, the Harbout Bridge and the Opera House, all the 'usual suspect'... BUT, this is one of Luna Park, but from a slight closer, and more unusual angle...
