I found some time in my busy holiday schedule of riding elephants, jet skiing, sun baking, hanging with lady boys and drinking cheap piss to shoot some photos of the local landscape. Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui, Thailand.

Nightmares

Promo shoot for Gold Coast Metal band NIGHTMARES.

Darkness is at its finest before the Dawn

The City of Seasons ( plastic edition)

I took a trip to Melbourne to watch So Cal legends Social Distortion. In between, drinking beers, meeting Kerry King from slayer, meeting hughsey, seeing a chick get run over and talking to a rambling lunatic in the pub for an hour I took some pictures. BOLTS!

All things are subject to decay when fate summons

The River City (plastic edition)

I recently went up to Brisbane for the day and took my holga along for the ride. Lately shooting film seems less effort then digital. Maybe its the surprise at the end? or maybe im just a lazy sack that doesnt want to edit a seemingly endless folder of RAW files.? Apart from dodging hipster uni students sipping starbucks while updating their status as they dodge and weave through the mall, I took some photos. enjoi.

The Holgador

I loaded up my little red holga with some 35mm BW and watched the matador. Ok for a camera that is held together by tape.

Bloody Aussie day Mate

The gang sat around at Sams and got shitfaced. the end.
here's some photos when i could still focus my camera. 1973 Praktica SLR w/ $2 china film.

Crack The Sky

Life is like a black and white photograph, there's black, there's white, and lots of shades in between

So its been raining for like the past 2 months, one afternoon it cleared up for long enough for me to use up a roll of BW film in my Praktica manual SLR.

This is NOT a print taken by my hipstamatic for I Phone

I bought an old Fujica Automagic heap of shit at an op shop a while ago for $20 and im glad i found this old thing hidden behind an AM radio and a sandwich press that was caked with mould and what looked like baked beans. Im not rocket scientist but im pretty sure the "Auto Focus" feature on the 1976 camera is broken. I like it.

Rain shall hold the vast empire of the sky alone.
