I've been spending so much time reading and expanding my mind, I've neglected Instagram. I also started feeling super constrained by the pressure of consistency on here, and my rebellion was just to not post at all...but anyway here I am with a shot from Cornwall. Special memories on this beach <3 (at Godrevy Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8MvTcenumn/?igshid=1dspwovezszw4

Busy busy busy busy! I've been neglecting Instagram a little. Sorry. Here's a fun view of St Kilda Pier, Melbourne. At the end of it is the famous little penguin colony (the colony is big, it's the penguins that are little, averaging 33cm!). No photos of them unfortunately as it was dark by the time they came in from the sea, but here's an artist's impression: 🐧 (almost life size) (at St Kilda Pier) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7or1V9HbiC/?igshid=3qewq795a24v

The Sands of Godrevy • Fond memories of this beautiful beach in Cornwall. In the distance and peering over the rocks, Godrevy lighthouse. (at Godrevy Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7jQesoHph_/?igshid=1hnqrefrousdp

Feeling grateful today for where I've come in life. Things are good although for a long time I didn't always know it. This time of year is always perfect for planning and reflecting, which is silly really because you can do that at any time of year, but I'm properly in that zone at the moment and appreciating it all! Tomorrow I head off to Cornwall, to spend a long weekend in a cabin in the woods. Who knows what I'll photograph there (trees). 🌳 (at St Kilda Pier) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7HLMltnWAH/?igshid=1qtf7ecukyc5g

This edit took waaayyy longer than it should have, mainly because I messed up when I took the photo. It was underexposed, I was using the wrong lens for the job, and I think I was so excited about actually being at the Twelve Apostles that I wasn't really thinking about what my vision was for the images I was taking there. Lesson learnt! I'm being much more focussed now when taking photos, thinking not only about the technicalities and the composition, but also about what story I'm trying to tell with it. Or at least, that's the goal... (at Twelve Apostles, Great Ocean Road) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7EoCKtnvhB/?igshid=2rmzet6wlyxg

Some of you know, I also run a podcast/community, which is nothing to do with photography, but all about love/compassion/culture in these times of division and uncertainty. It's called Love Louder by @okami.collective, and yesterday we released the latest episode in which we talk to a retired police officer about compassion in the police force. It's honestly a brilliant listen, so if it sounds like you might be interested, go check out @okami.collective and click the link in the bio. Let me know what you think! ✌️ (at St Kilda, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7B6Tx1H_vY/?igshid=mxwho8d4x8yk

Yesterday's sunrise mission was a success! I tried out taking landscape panoramas too for the first time, the composition is a little off but not bad for a test run.

Today I had a proper photo fail. I decided last-minute to visit a viewpoint nearby, at sunset, to practice my landscape photography. So I grabbed my gear and jumped in the car. It soon became apparent that I had left too late, and was literally chasing the sun as I sped down the road, effing and blinding at the learner drivers and lorries slowing me down. It wasn't a location I know very well, and so when I arrived I didn't quite recognise where to park, or where to go. Cue almost 30 minutes of aimless wandering and more cursing. By the time I found the location I wanted to be at, the sun had set, and because I was still rushing, I slipped and landed in mud, camera and all. Not a single photo was taken. The moral of the story? Proper preparation prevents piss-poor performance! Plan ahead, don't rush, and you're 100% more likely to a) take a photo and b) not end up covered in mud. On the plus side, I now know how to get to the location, and my bag is packed and ready for my s̶u̶n̶s̶e̶t̶ sunrise mission tomorrow 😏 • • • #theoutbound #imaginarymagnitude #photocinematica #somewheremagazine #dreamermagazine #burnmagazine #theimaged #freshairclub #broadmag #classicsmagazine #portbox #fivesixmag #oftheafternoon #phroommagazine #ig_landscape #archivecollectivemag #indiependentmag #thinkverylittle #fisheyelemag #take_magazine #photofilmy #concretewaveco #lensculture #exploreobserveshare #stademagazine #nuagesmagazine https://www.instagram.com/p/B63skNBnyvc/?igshid=dkzsuler4nbb
