I run past a lot of houses. Some I take notice of some I ignore. Every house has a story, so when I ran past this house on Margaret St, I knew I would have to come back and visit it for my photography project. I have no idea how long it has been abandoned, […]
One thing I have enjoyed about this project is finding the little hidden gems of our home town. It’s easy to go past something every day and not really notice it. Recently I started a running project, to run every street in my home town. I wished I started it inline with this project, as […]
I have lived in Stawell for coming up 13 years. Surprisingly, even though I have lived here for that length of time, I haven’t run every street. Scrolling through Strava one day I saw one my friends post. She had set a challenge to run every street of her suburb. I thought what I great […]
Autumn and the spring have to be my favourite seasons to photograph in. Changing colours and softer light is a photographers dream. The Golden Hour is that magical time of the day where the light is warm, diffused, directional. Wandering over to the Grandstand of the Stawell Gift, it was washed in this magical light. […]
Stawell has a rich history of gold mining. While the mine is currently active underground, there are many historical markers scattered throughout the town. Some long gone and forgotten. For this weeks Tuesday image I jumped on my bike and headed to Three Jacks Reserve, just on the outskirts of town, and the start of […]
Say what! 40! Does that mean there are only 13 Tuesdays left for the year? I have a feeling these last few weeks will travel very quickly. The sun was out, and I knew I wanted to spend some time out in the glorious sunshine. Being hit by a virus, however, has meant the last […]
Our town does have quite a few hidden gems. Being a local you can take for granted some of our historical markers. Like this magnificent sundial located in the rose garden of Central Park. Tuesday #38 Location: Rose Garden, Central Park, Stawell Lens: 40mm F/stop: 5.6 Speed: 1/200 ISO: 250
After dropping Miles off at swimming I had decided to walk up to moonlight reserve. On the way was a man-made dam, with some ducks swimming. With the light fading, I captured these weedy reed flowers (I have no idea what they are). Tuesday #29 Location: Moonlight dam Lens: 40mm F/stop: 3.2 Speed: 1/640 ISO: […]
I was madly trying to finish my redo cardigan when Tom mentions to go look at the sunset. It was then I realised, ooh I need a photo. Tuesday #28 Location: Ord St Lens: 40mm F/stop: 11.0 Speed: 1/100 ISO: 500
I had one rule with it came to my 53 Tuesday project, that the images had to be from the camera and not my phone. Unfortunately, that rule is being broken for this week’s image. And it’s not because I want to. After dropping Miles off at swimming, I made a quick detour to the […]
