Winter Wonder Land [part 1]







Sorry for not posting anything in a minute, it's been a manic few weeks.
I am now back in the UK, coming home to such cold weather after seeing the beginnings of summer time in Sydney has been a shock to the system to say the least. Last week during some early snow fall I went out with my camera for a walk. Here you go... more coming up soon.

Nothing is permanent...


I took this photo over in WA at a beach. Markings in the sand and a sun faded news paper reminding me of my favorite quote which has leveled me out during tough times...

"Nothing is permanent in this wicked world of ours, not even our troubles"
-Charlie Chaplin

RattleCat




























The first & possibly only Rattle Cat show on Sunday night at the Manly Boatshed, it was a killer night, Josh Fergus & his ensemble of musicians threw this show together very quickly, put in 110% and it was a huge success. The vibe of the packed out Boatshed was incredible, Josh's new music got to everyone's dancing shoes for sure. Stand out songs for me were "Hail Mary", "Song For The Weekend", "Rattle Cat" & a very unique cover of The White Stripes "Seven Nation Army". Fantastic night, I sincerely hope this isn't the only gig we'll have from these guys.
Go to http://www.myspace.com/joshuafergus to hear some of Josh's new songs. Thanks

Osborne Rd


Osborne Rd, you were so very good to me. As much as I hated walking up your steepest point after the longest days and the drunkest nights, you had some kind of magic that made my time living there so very special & unforgettable. But most of all you brought me together with some people who I now consider some of my best friends. I thank you.

Rock & rolls will never die




Some photos of me by my friend Steph Larkin from last week during my trip over to Western Australia. Skated this spot outside the library in Perth, the most fun place I've skated of late. Stoked on the shots Steph got of me, not often I get this side of the camera. On this 29'C day for the love of a new spot & some fun, pulled out a fs rock & roll, and a bs rock & roll sequence and still.It's only rock & rolls, but I like it.

Sydney Harbour Bridge


A shot I took out of the car window driving across the harbour bridge a couple of weeks ago, fish eye lens really makes this massively used bridge look life size.
