Concrete Silence

Miguel Gallagher
Silence

This image is in the stairwells of Parliament House where I work. They are very quiet most of the time but once you get in there and start walking around that quickly changes with the echos. You try and imagine what they have heard but only get a concrete silence in response.

Brie Wasteland

Miguel Gallagher
Ephemeral, Waste

I bought this Brie to be consumed with wine and pate on a rug at Tropfest. I didn't get very far as it was a bit bolder than expected and not as appetising as most. Anyway after getting home I forgot to remove it from the bag on the kitchen bench. Now it is wasted and the only way to get any value out of it is to take a photo and post it for all to see what not to do. It almost looks like wastelands of cheese.

Retro Girl and ... Um, Politicians

Miguel Gallagher
No Photo

This is a T-shirt design I made from an old photo I had of a friend of mine and some photoshop drawing. She is a bit of a retro girl so I gave it a 70s/80s feel. The other photo is video frame capture from old footage from The House of Reps with some fun vectorizing.

Red, White, Blue and Proud

Miguel Gallagher
Red, White and Blue

I went and did some photos for the Southcare helicopter people and I saw what was a perfect shot for my Red White and Blue. Now I like it even more as I am feeling very proud to be an Australian at the moment.

Romantically Hooked

Hooked

This is a photo I took in my living room with lovely dappled light streaming in behind Mel.

Passing Moment

Robert Burne
Ephemeral

Walking on a remote Tasmanian Beach I came across a woman examining the fashion potential of the marine flora. She was kind enough to give me this pose.
