To give you an idea of the types of things I photograph, here are a few images I've captured nearby (Sydney, Australia). As you can see, it's a beautiful place.

watching

I've listened to and watched a number of podcasts over the years, covering a great range of topics. One of my favourites is Ted Forbes' 'The Art of Photography' - wonderful show.

keywords

Keywords.

I photograph a number of Australia's heritage sites - particularly those covering the first century or so of European occupation. To get an idea of the exact locations & names covered, head over to the Keywords page on my SmugMug site.

community

I use Twitter quite a lot myself, both to research (and share) my own work and to see what everyone else is doing. If you tweet a lot about Photography, Creativity or Australian Heritage, let me know.

research

I frequently use a number of history-related sites to research the various sites I photograph, and to share discoveries with. Of particular note :

And on flickr : powerhouse flickr, slnsw and nsw state records

Although it's primarily a way to enjoy your iTunes library on a big screen (think movies on your TV), it's also a great way to share your photos with friends and family. You can either show the photos (again, on your TV) that are stored on a Macbook/iPhone/iPad, or view the ones stored in Photos.

Either way, it's a beautiful way to share them.
