Presidents, Gumboots and Cows

There’s nothing quite like walking through a new town. You see those things that the townsfolk sometimes forget are interesting and unique. Heath Missen took one of those wanderings through Mullumbimby and this is what he captured. For more photos from Heath, checkout his facebook page HERE.

Holga in Autumn

This morning I went for a late morning walk with the extended family (someone special to us is getting married on Saturday). So I thought it was a nice opportunity to give a weird little Holga lens (for my Nikon) I bought on Ebay a whirl. Every time I go up to the Lighthouse, it always gives to me more than I seem to give to it. It’s breathtaking. And with the 5/6 days of… Continue Reading…

What Swell?

If you happened to miss the swell of the last three days. Well, it was special. Nothing worse than someone rubbing in what you’ve missed. May as it’s known in Byron Bay is a special month. The crowds thin. South Westerly’s blow early and the skies clear. It’s been magic. For those of you who did get a taste of the swell, I’m sure you are smiling from ear to ear.

Chasing The Moon

The moon is an elusive character. Ever changing. Bright. Thinks it’s better than us… etc. It proved Alex Frings and I had a few more tricks to learn this evening as we tried to line up ‘oh majesty’ with the lighthouse, thinking we had it dialed with a group of watchers from a hillside perch off Coolamon Scenic Drive. Not even close! But, how could you not enjoy such a beautiful sight, as the moon… Continue Reading…
