I’ve been trying out a new photography technique…
Now that I’ve tried it once, I think I’ll have to keep going.
Basically I took my EOS 400D and held it to the headstock of one of my guitars with elastic bands, and hoped for the best. Next time I’ll try it with a wide-angle lens.
To take this photo, I fixed my EOS 400D to the headstock of my guitar and shot a long exposure.
Ignoring the fact that I have a “to do” list a mile long, I’ve been playing around with drive mappings tonight. “Why”, do I hear you ask? Apart from the fact that I’m allowed my geek moments every so often, I’ve just signed up a business I network manage to a web-based file storage system.

I love AVG as much as the next anti-virus program – that is, the viruses they don’t pick up are always the ones that arse up your computer. Because of my view on anti-virus software I don’t stick with AVG out of any real preference – it’s not any faster or catches significantly more viruses than the others. The only real reason I stick with it is because I know it. And the thing I know the most about it is how much of a pain in the ass it can be. (more…)
Soooo…what’s going on? (more…)
I’ve released my second photo book! It’s all about railways in Victoria, and well worth a look (if I do say so myself). Take a look at them on my Flickr page. (more…)
