I seem to spend a lot of time taking photos at night. Of stars and stuff and of city night views. I am still to be happy with the astronomy variety but i'm working on it. Living in Sydney does not help with all that evil light pollution.

perhaps we have to go to Watson Bay, it has a little beach called "Lady beach", correct me if I'm wrong, haven't get back there for few years now. Very nice and in early summer morning.

I like shooting anything that catches my eye but I also like shooting for my clients because that is what pays for my toys

Oh dear, this thread has me questioning my sexuality... ;)
I immediately thought of landscapes and majestic grand views - not the female form as a person my age should! :lol:
In fact, when I went to David Jones' Spring Fashion launch, I was more concerned with nailing white balance under the changing overhead lights and getting the facial exposure correct than enjoying the eye candy. :shock:

Actually, it's Lady Bay, but parking anywhere around there, on any sort of a nice day, is a real bear.

I'm quite fond of shooting strange subjects... like people who beat the living hell out of inanimate objects.

I guess I take the most shots of my family... and they are my most favourite subjects.

However I do love landscapes (pity I don't live in Canada or I would be in heaven)
