Another one from the Tiger Beer Series. This time the exposure is a little longer. Quite like the effect, even though you lose detail in the flame.

Hey Everyone,

for those of you on Image Brief, they are looking for iconic Sydney Skyline Images. $500 for the winning entry. If you are not on Image Brief yet. It's well worth trying. It's like a reverse stock library.

Hi Sydney Community . I have found a great fire breather thanks to +Gretchen Chappelle . But I'm also looking for 1 or 2 pro fire twirlers on Thursday night for a photo / video shoot. If one of you photographers here in Sydney know how to twirl, that would be even better. It would be great to have someone that is aware of composition and framing. I have a small budget available. If you know someone or can do it yourself, please contact me.

Hi G+ Gang,

Sharing this oldie but goodie with everyone, but I wanted to know from my +Sydney Plussers if they know of a fire breather here in Syd. I am doing a shoot next Thursday night and would love to use someone.

Cheers,

Alex

Since I have decided to get rid of all my darkroom equipment today, it's only fitting I'm sharing one of my personal favourite images that I developed and printed using the setup...

Taken with Nikon FM2 + 50mm Nikkor F1.2 on Fuji Neopan 1600 and precessed in Diafine (I love that stuff)

Now that +Cake Masters  is finally live, I am so happy to reveal to you what I have been working on in the past 6 months.

I have been filming 90% of the tutorials available on the http://cakemasters.com/ website and have also been responsible for most the post production and photography on the website.

Make sure you check out the website to see the promo trailer that i put together and if you are interested sign up for some of the free tutorials.

If you would have talked to me 6 months ago and said you will be filming 20+ Cake Decorating Tutorials and you'll have a great time doing it, I probably would have laughed. Now I am so proud of what we have achieved and I am looking forward filming and editing the next ones. I am absolutely blessed to have filmed with some of the greatest Cake Artists in the world including Petalsweet Cakes, Whimsical Cakehouse, Carlos... more »

Some Photos from one of the last nice mornings for a while. Looks like the rain has set in for a while here in Sydney. Couldn't get myself to edit this one, accept for a 16:9 crop. Everything seemed pretty spot on already.

NORTHLINE “CONNECTIVITY” EXHIBITION OPENING AND 30TH ANNIVERSARY GALA - Blog Entry

NORTHLINE “CONNECTIVITY” EXHIBITION OPENING AND 30TH ANNIVERSARY GALA

One of the projects that I have been working on for almost a year now. I was commissioned by Northline, an Australia’s biggest privately owned Freight Forwarding Company, to create Lightpainting Images that would answer to the simple brief of “Connectivity“.

You can have a look at all the images here:

http://www.northline30years.com.au/

All photos were created “in-camera” with minimal retouching in Aperture and +Nik Software 's Color Efex.

Last Friday on the 22nd of March 2013 was the big Exhibition Opening with over 300 invited guests.
I was particularly happy that one of the prints was auctioned off for $2000 to go to Camp Quality.

The Exhibition will be running for another 2 weeks at the National Wine Centre in Adelaide, before travellingto other venue... more »

Another lovely spot in SF. I think the Bay Bridge is as impressive as the Golden Gate, particularly at nigh with the new Light Installations.

Leaving for Adelaide in the morning to finally see one of my large projects come to fruition at the Northline Gala with 16 of my commissioned light-painting images, printed on 30x45 inch Metal by +Print2Metal  in Melbourne. This project was created together with Adelaide Ad Agency Black Sheep. Photos and more to follow in the coming days...

Golden Gate Bridge at Sunset

Back from my work trip to San Francisco. Everything went really well. Filmed 6 Tutorials in 5 Days, with my trusted 3 Camera - One operator Setup. Not long now until I can share what I have been working on over the past 5 months.

Going through a backlog of images that I took, whenever I had a spare minute over there. SF is a beautiful City. Really enjoyed the stay and can't wait to get back there one day with a bit more time to spare.

Subject for this one is the obvious choice, nonetheless breathtaking when you set Eyes on it for the first time...

Although we only stayed for about 40 minutes, it was still a great spectacle at the Palace of Fine arts last Thursday in San Francisco. Will be sharing more images from this ib the coming days.

This one just to show of a bit of that magical venue in context...
