I am doing a lot of driving for my work and at some point I got sick and tired of all the Melbourne radio stations and started to think what else I can listen to while driving. The first thing that came to mind was the audio books and I used to listen to them for a while, but then it hit me – podcasts! I started looking around in the podcasts section of iTunes and choosing what to listen to. Naturally I looked for photography related podcasts and found plenty of those. So I got all enthusiastic,... more
Many photographers nowadays are concerned with how to protect their photos on the web from others using them and I think this is bullshit for the most part of it.

It has been a long going trend, most notably with Instagram and Hipstamatic to slap a filter on any photo that you take. As a result we have lots of photos converted to all kinds of retro styles with artificially added “film” grain, faded colors, funny colors, distortions of all kinds and many other “cool” effects.

There is a nice cafe located in the Dandenong Ranges named “Grants on Sherbrooke”. It is a pretty ordinary place for one small exception – lots of Cockatoos and Rosellas live nearby and come to feed there.

As you well know, it is Springtime in Australia. Everything blossoms and what a beautiful sight it is! Today we went for a short 2h walk along the Somers beach here in Victoria. During this short walk I saw such a huge variety of blossoming flowers that I couldn’t resist and took some photos. Here are just a few of those flowers.

For quite a while I’ve felt that PhotoPathway needed a new look, but didn’t have the time to do something about it. A couple of months ago I desided to start working on it, but as a result I didn’t post anything new. I promise that will change from now on!
In the meantime you are welcome to check out the new design and the new portfolio section. I decided to make the photos in my portfolio available for sale, for more info on that please visit Purchase page.
I would really like... more
