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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

This post is a double whammy. Why? Because I am going to talk about two things in this post. The first is obviously the fact that we are in week 50 of 52. As it can be seen in the photo I published for last week (week 49), I am feeling the cold and staying […]
View Article As the Winter Solstice nears (1 day and a bit to go), I thought it was time to change the hero banner for the home page. From the photo that I took sometime in Spring or Summer, I now have replaced it with one that I look this past Monday. The day was gray, gloomy […]

Last week the photo I took for my Self-Portrait project was a “high note” type of photo. When I took the photo everything was great and I had things to look forward to. This week, my mood has changed. Things happened since I took the photo for week 46 and this reflects on my photo […]

It seems like an eternity ago that I started this project. My life has changed immensely since then, but there are still a lot of pending items. Tomorrow starts a new chapter in my life. I am mentally in a better place and that can easily be seen in the progression of my Self-Portrait Project. […]

It’s been an extremes week for me. From great happy moments to sad and depressed. Because of the big antagonizing feelings I felt during the week, I could not post only one photo in Week 42 of the Self-Portrait project.

So, I was really uninspired when I took the photos for my Self-Portrait project for last week. I thought that it would be interesting to take a photo of me cooking (again) in the kitchen. The difference would be that I would be doing the prep-work instead of standing in front of the stove/pan. For […]

I wasn’t going to set goals this year. Last year I only managed to complete half of the goals I set out to do. This year isn’t looking too promising either, we are already at the end of March and I haven’t really photographed as much as I would like. Well, not with the intent […]
