Sony α7III, Sony 24-105mm f/4 G OSS, and a whole lot of frames. This is made up of 130 subframes to capture enough light.

It’s one of the most wonderful cities on earth. It has such a distinctive soul that just breathes through it, I can’t wait to go back.

Ah! I ask because I stayed in the Chicago one back in 2008 and adored it 😊

Hahah I’ve just decided to start a good review register. That is definitely one of the best compliments I’ve received, cheers! And I did. I figure it was my reward for saving a baby kangaroo on the drive there after the car in front hit it.

AI has its place in the photography arsenal, much as most tools. But I do have my pride that I can create fantasy without needing to cheat 😊

My mate Stuart that runs Salvage Drink Co. They are getting the discard fruit from orchards and turning it into spirits and liqueurs using wild yeasts. Pretty fun times!

They’re all tops blokes and good to have a chat with. I’d normally say pop over and say hi, but their schedule is so hectic I don’t know if even I’d get a moment 😂

Funnily enough, that film crew were my mates! They’re doing follow up work for The Platypus Guardian.

More fish photos to brighten up Blue Sky. Remember the original fish Twitter games we used to play? Like #EpithetEtymology, #GuessThatFish, and #WrasseWednesday? I’m bringing them all back!

Not resembles, George. Is. Don’t walk it back this time around.

This is hugely important context that people don’t see immediately. Because they’re temporal events, “oh there was fish today” can quickly become “all reefs are fine because there was fish today”. Thank you for doing what you do to highlight that, Terry.

Is it too late to appreciate an autumn’s gathering dew? To revel in the joie de vivre of life? To love? Probably. But ramen can solve that.
