Port Melbs

These are 'those' apartments that one of the rounded balcony's collapsed due to some dodgy construction, and landed onto the street at the end of Summer. 4x5 Velvia film, V750 scan just for web ok.

Bronze welding today

Hastwell and Lightfoot Cab Sav

The plan was to by a bottle of my fave D'arenberg shiraz for a Friday night swill, but when I saw this bottle it reminded me of my friends Steve Lightfoot and Simon Hastwell so I had to buy it.

Its really bloody good red from hometown RADelaide. 5dmk2 handheld f4 30th sec on the ol kitchen bench with a curry cooking...

RIP Josh Evin

Had a skate today with Morgs at the Globe mini, bloody great fun we tipped back a longneck of Coopers each in respect of fallen mate Josh Evin. So these avo photos where shot on my Canon G10, when I first bought it I thought it was a ok half decent camera, sorry Canon its actually really shit.

A wise man once told me "you only get what you pay for son". Too true.

Aotearoa

Some cross processed 35mm. I love this Country.

Arca Swiss 5x4

Testing out the Arca Swiss over the next few days, pretty excited - Thanks Lou!

Professor ONE-T

You're bloody missed mate.

Smidgeon

Poor old fella got the rough end of the stick [or car]

No fixies here

P.U.Y.T

This is some Islander speak, I'm not one for projecting my political stance on a blog but I'll probably be called a racist now, seems 'everyone' is these days according to our fucked media...Wankers

SX-70 Polaroid

This is...

Better than shooting skateboarders??

The Doddfather

Joey Dodd, frontside feeble City Square rail

The Gonz

Undoubtably the most influential street skater of all time...It doesnt really matter tho when you drink VB! X-Pan and Tri-X.

Spencer Eagles

I shot this with Spence one night at the Ring of Fire years ago [on film], I set the flash so it would expose him properly and then gave him my 540ez and a pocket wizard so he could light himself up whilst flying over the hip.

Back up the truck

So...I'm pretty sure this is the best thing ever. What's better than a truck backing up and parking for 3 days and one can just 'help yourself' to a cold one. I cant believe the Seppos beat us to it.

Party Animal

I'd caught Mavis sneaking in thru the back door early one Sunday morning, her breath smelt of fine whiskey and cigars, she said she'd been at the Supper club with some other dogs from round the block.

Its a blog about Brophy

Andrew Brophy

The ultimate in rad dudes. Here, Andrew is looking somewhat special he doesnt mind taking the piss out of himself and without a doubt can do the highest "ollie boost up in the airs" on the planet.

Its Friday

It's getting close to "that" time of day for a Friday and I'm looking forward to it...Real Polaroid, real beer.

The North Shore brah

This was an out take from a shoot I did for Kustom, amazing good times considering it was work.

Polaroid manipulation

SX-70 film, manipulated with a blunt stick. Halframe camera.

Cam Sinclair Double back Flip

Well Jake Brown did the back flip on a skateboard tonight at Rod Laver, Sinclair did the double on a FMX...holy farkn shit!

I was dubious about the Nitro Circus but it was amazing entertainment. Top Stuff...

The Best...

I've been hanging out with me old mate Jake Brown [google his name if you're green] and shut up Im allowed to be a name dropping dick.

I snuck into Rod Laver Arena on Thursday arvo to watch him practice for the Nitro Circus spectacle. No media were allowed to be there but Jake txted me some covert back door directions and knowing RLA from the old Globe WC days I avoided security and other bogan meatheads, and be-lined for the stands to shoot some x-pan panos. I shot some 3200 of him doing back flips [WTF] but Im pretty sure they'll suck as the lighting was purposely proper shithouse to make it hard for ratbags like myself. Anyway today we cruised some town action to shoot a contents portrait for the next Skateboarders Journal issue due out in 2 weeks. This is an out take with Jake repping Jake Duncombes pro model.

lurking in the foggy death zone

How I end up at these places I dont really know...

Nike conference

Dropped by the Nike SB sales conference to shoot a few snaps for them. They have some really nice new apparel lines and damn cool boots for ya 'plates of meat' in there. Sorry cant show any more than this or I'll get lynched...
