Growing old disgracefully, love it. An 82 year old lady, who I was photographing in the studio, told me that your body may get older, but in your mind you are always 21. A week after I photographed her she went tandem hang gliding off the ramp at Mount Buffalo in Victoria. Never forgotten that. [...]
Shooting in Balranald the other day, couldn’t help but stop and take a quick snap of this green frog sitting on top of the welcome to Balranald sign. He’s sort of the towns mascot if you like, you will see him/her all over town sitting on seats, climbing posts hanging off signs. It’s really a [...]
Another fine art print for our excite art’s “Found Objects” exhibition. An old piece of mining machinery at Broken Hill. This time the wet conditions really helped bring out the colour in the old loader bucket.
One of the little part time projects that is always simmering away on the back burner here at excitations is the development of images for a fine art gallery.

Apparently using a DSLR camera in public places is banned. So if you’ve bought a shiny new DSLR for your upcoming holiday to Kuwait, then the [...]
Just started to do a preliminary edit from last Saturday’s wedding of Anna and Joe, while this picture isn’t exactly a wedding photo, I thought we’d post it for all the Ford GT fans out there. Bianca is going to select a few pictures from the wedding , hopefully getting time to posted them, right [...]
Promised that I’d post another shot of Andrew Clegg. Last time it was a pretty straight portrait of Andrew with a mug of tea at sunset. This time we’ve got Andrew on the dry edge of Lake Eyre, juggling fire no less. Not exactly the shot we went out to do but when mother nature [...]
The crew from excitations have spent the last couple of weeks shooting in northern South Australia around Lake Eyre and surrounding areas. We were there partly due to an invitations from a long time friend and adventurer Kiff Saunders. Kiff is to be the subject of a story on Australian Story, aired on ABC TV [...]
