I was so happy to see the sun come out this weekend. When we got off the plane earlier this week I was sad to see that it was still cold in Melbourne. But I think that was just Melbourne’s weather misbehaving. I have been dying to get back into taking photos outside, so Brad popped in today to model for me on the rooftop. I want to pick up my photography more now and hopefully work more on my blogging and photography next year. Unfortunately I didn’t get a photo book deal this year, but the publishers in Germany are still interested in working with me.

I Spy
I had lots of projects over the Easter long weekend. One was to revive my photography. After checking out some photo blogs last week like TheSelby I was motivated to start shooting again. At some point in time I want to create my own photo book. I’ve admired so many other photographer’s work I think it’s time that I gave it a go myself. I just haven’t quite worked out how yet. I have plenty of content already.
Summer Shoots
The weather in Melbourne lately has been absolutely perfect! We get about 14 hours of daylight now and the days are really warm… sometimes pretty hot. I’ve been using the perfect light to do some shooting out on the rooftop. I’m really happy with the results. But I still have so much to learn about lighting, white balance and that dreaded Av mode. I kinda wish I had gone to photography school a few years ago when Jake went along. But I’m thinking that practice makes perfect and I’m getting plenty of that right now.
