Melbourne Zoo on a Partly Cloudy 2023 day

Last weekend I ended up going to the Melbourne Zoo. I like the Melbourne Zoo as it is very conservation focused. The animals have a decent sized cages and they try to mimic the environment they would be in. As an example, the Sumatran tiger lives in a small Asian jungle and the path to […]

Australia Day Long Weekend

Finally a trip to look forward to! Next week I will be going on the Great Ocean Road and spending 3 days (2 nights) there. It looks like the weather will help, so I will try to take photos. I’m not going too far away from Melbourne, but far away enough to not feel like […]

Resuming Photography

A lot has/is happening in my personal life. The (little) photography I have been taking has been quite personal an not made for internet consumption. This is the reason I have not published much here. I haven’t even published my usual retrospective of the year (which I’m hoping to do later this week). I have, […]

Photo Restoration – Part 3: Photo texture

This is something I still struggle with, mostly because I haven’t done a lot of them yet: removing the texture provided by the paper the photo was printed on. I’ve seen a few tutorials in the internet about how to remove the texture, but most of them are focused on black and white photos and […]

Photo Restoration – Part 2: Dust and scratches

Restoration - Child waiting to jump in the lake

The second part of the process is removing dust and scratches from the photos. To remove the dust and scratches digitally, I use Photoshop. By default, the scanner software opens the TIFF photo in Photoshop. At this part of the workflow, I use Photoshop to rotate and crop only, I don’t do any dust cleaning […]

Site update

I’ve been meaning to update the site layout/look and feel. I’ve been putting this off for a while and decided that it’s time to bite the bullet and do it. For this reason, the site may be unavailable, i.e. with a coming soon type of page, for most of the week. I already have the […]

Photo Restoration – Part 1: Digitizing the photo

It ended up that I was able to get my hands on photos to do restoration with. I don’t have any personal ones here in Australia because all the ones my mother would take when I was growing up are with her and she doesn’t live here. So I relied on the ones provided by […]

Restarting photography

The warmer, sunny weather really motivates me to photograph. This past week has been mostly sunny, with today being the 4th day of the week with sun (and second to be 19oC or above). Really warm compared to what we were having. The works with photoshop in photo restoration ended up a dud, the requested […]

Not a good year

This year has not been a good year for my photography. I have basically left it a bit behind, not really chasing my goals. I feel bad for it and miss taking constant photographs for public and personal view. This is all due to things that got started last year, and that my Self-Portrait project […]

4th Anniversary

This year I did not get to do anything special for the site’s 4th anniversary. I did celebrate it internally, with keeping my eyes out for beauty around me. Unfortunately, I did not action anything. It is on this anniversary (or the days right before) that the old discussion came back: should I migrate to […]

Self-Portrait Project Conclusion

It doesn’t seem like it’s already been a year, but it has. I have photographed myself almost every week in the last 53 weeks (I skipped one calendar week and pushed the completion day one week forward) as part of my Self-Portrait project. The project clearly documents my evolution in dealing with a situation that […]
