Sheet Music

Music

I had intended to try and photograph the chorus of maggies I hear every morning when I walk to the bus stop. I could hear their choir reheasal but when I looked up I saw the galas sitting on the wires like notes on a sheet of music.

The Appropriate Axe

Music

I am preparing for tomorrow's concert with the Orchestra. The "Holst" calls for "Trumpet in C" whereas for the "Berlioz" I will need "Cornet in Bb".

Beauties and the Judge

Kathleen Fisher
Open

I bet you've never seen a beauty contest judge looking like this before! The Jack Daniels t-shirt, reflective glasses and surrounding skimpy babes make the nature of this competition obvious — that's right, it's at a car festival.

I've only just started scanning my negatives from Summernats 2005, where I gratefully accepted a media pass into the beauty pageant pit. Naturally, the winner was blonde with big boobs, but she was surprisingly curvaceous everywhere else too. The judge's outfit may look like he's swallowed a rainbow, but he was all for beauty over a size 14. That makes him the real winner in my book.

These images came out of a technique I have been experimenting with.

Bus Boys

I had trouble getting Jesse to pose for me. He doesn't like having his photo taken. This was taken on the bus and I told him he wasn't in the photo.

Jesse

I have just had a discussion about showing the essence of someone in a portrait. This is the essence of Jesse ... reticent, avoiding the problem etc.
