Ngā mihi o te wā me te aroha nui, nā Photographicamismo

The title means Merry Christmas with love from Photographicamismo in Maori which is rather fitting seeing as I'm spending Christmas at home in New Zealand. We have a fantastic tree ...

... and the moon was bright tonight

Summer

It's Summer in the southern hemisphere which calls for fruit punch and friends on a rooftop bar.

The Photo Album - Volume One

I have a German back-packer friend staying with me and as a thank-you gift/ early Christmas present she gave me The Photo Album - a book published by Frankie magazine :) So happy as I've wanted to buy it anyway!

a man and his shoes

I walk to work in the morning and I often take my camera just in case there's something to photograph (98% of the time there is). One morning sun was shining on the window of this shoe shop so I proceeded to take photos of of the shoes. The owner came out and showed me inside where he had newspaper clippings where other photographers and journalists had taken a photo of him. When I asked him if I could take a photo he said "of course" and here is the result. He just has one of those photogenic faces.

 

 

PhotoBooth project- "The photobooth is alive"

While moseying around the Blackbird Markets in Fitzroy I came across Abbey and her photography project- PhotoBooth. The project began at the Northcote highviews festival. Steps to taking part in the project:

1. Sit in front of the PhotoBooth mirror"Gazing into a full length mirror in sight of those around them they are at once in a private moment yet in a public space."

2. One two three - the photo is taken

3. Wait approximately one week for your image to appear on Abbey's blog.

4. You are now part of the PhotoBooth project.

Read more about Abbey, her project and view her images.

On the Street

Super Mercado

While wandering around the streets of Fitzroy one fine Saturday I stumbled upon the blackbird markets at the workers club. 

There were corners, nooks and crannies full of crafts, clothes, bands, beer.
