This week is all about Victoria. She’s been more present, specially with Albert running horny after her non-stop. She has been fleeing from him like “the devil from the cross” (as goes the Brazilian saying). Here are the photos of Victoria and Sophia for this week.

I know there have been a few minor changes here and there in the blog and I haven’t really commented on it. The most important change is that now I have a photographic calendar. At the end of the page, you will be able to see a section called “Upcoming Events”. I created an online […]

Albert has started growing acustomed to us being around and now doesn’t even run. Today he allowed me to touch him without chasing him OR offering a worm. He would’ve probably run if I had made any gesture that resembled that I was going to try to pick him up. Here are this week(end)’s photos.

Yesterday, Dean and I went to Yarraville to look at a house (we’re looking to buy). On the way back home, we took a detour to pick up his bike. I dropped him off where he left his bike (long story) and started driving back. The GPS was a bit confused as to which direction […]

Last time I went to take photos to practice for the track day that Dean will do – see post Cars in Movement – there were a few things that did not please me. The first was the high ISO. It created a lot of noise in the image. At the size shown, you really […]

Last year I went plane spotting at the Tullamarine airport with my 70-300mm lens. The photos came out great (as you can see it in the Plane Spotting album) for how much I was prepared for those photos. When I look at the photos, I can still see where the fence was and that it […]

So I took the second photo of the chickens this weekend. I managed to get both chickens together in a single shot. From now on, I will post the photos only on Sundays (or Mondays), but the two photos at the same time.

In various degrees, I will take photos of the chickens every weekend. This is part of me creating a body of work that can help me improve my photographic talents. The “In various degrees” aspect of the statement above is that I may not be home every weekend to take photos of them. For example, […]

So Dean needed a photo to be part of a news piece at his work. For that, he asked me to take a photo of him. He wanted me to rent a studio, even if just for one hour, to do the shoot because we would need studio lights. I wasn’t really worried about the […]

Dean is planning to do track day, where he will get on his bike and ride around a race track. This helps him understand better how his bike works and behaves. It is also a less dangerous approach to riding at higher speeds than in the middle of traffic. That’s the excuse we used to […]
