So back to it, I trust everyone had a great holiday? After a busy 2012 I decided not to run any courses on the lead up to Christmas. It always gets a little crazy with bookings, print purchases, inquiries, social events etc. Christmas 2012 was no exception. I’m not sure how I will manage Christmas 2013 [...]

So the individual results are in and as it is with almost every competition there has been a degree of contention regarding the results. This has been further exacerbated for the Loupe Awards by the introduction of a more open judging process. This year each entrant has been provided with scores from each judge rather [...]

I’ve only spent one evening in my entire life at a camera club meeting. I never found the desire or need to be part of one. The closest I have got to this sort of community has been with the Focus Flickr group. They are a great bunch of guys, and with almost 500 members [...]

Straight from France is this years Kolor Panobook 2012. I’m delighted to have two of my panoramic images included in this years edition after submitting my images to their annual competition. I use Kolor’s excellent software to stitch my panoramic photos together. It offers many powerful tools for stitching panoramic images and I wouldn’t hesitate [...]

A nice surprise to come home to after a long weekend away shooting in Victoria, my APPA (Australian Professional Photography Awards) Silver (with Distinction) award certificate. I’ve been sitting on this news for a week or so but choose to wait for the certificate to come through before sharing of photo of it with you [...]

Hi Guys, It has been a very productive couple of months with many firsts for me. I taught my first Photoshop course to some great students in the Blue Mountains, I came 13th in the world at this years Epson Pano Awards, I won a Silver Distinction at the Australia Professional Photography Awards, two Silvers [...]

The top 50 places have just been announced for this years Epson International Photographic Pano Awards. I’m pleased to announce I placed 13th in the Open Nature Category, lucky for some! This is a massive achievement, the calibre of photography posted year on year makes it extremely difficult to get any award let alone to place in the [...]

A first for me, the elusive Silver Award at this years Epson International Pano Awards 2012. I must be doing something right, well at least better. All my entry’s were awarded, with two of the Bronze awards falling just short of a silver. The first year I entered the competition no one was awarded a [...]

Well I managed to ‘one up’ my previous efforts at the NSW AIPP Photography awards, this time I was awarded two silvers (as apposed to one). I hope these images do just as well in the APPA’s (Australia wide competition) next month. I’m looking for at least two silvers and the associated points to go [...]

Here are my entries for this years Epson International Pano Awards, fingers crossed they do well…I could do with my own printer.

Hi guys, here’s a quick round up of what I’ve been up to in the last couple months, and what I have coming up. Photography Course – new dates I have locked in two course dates for this month, book now to get my fantastic introductory rate which will expire after these course dates! The [...]

I’ve won another Silver award for my image of Flinders Street Station in Melbourne but this time in the Australia wide AIPP (Australian Institute of Professional Photographers) Landscape Photographer of the Year 2010, not just in the NSW sector. This gives me another point towards accreditation and more importantly I get published in the yearly [...]

I’m please to announce I’ve won another Bronze Award at this years Epson International Photography awards for my panorama of Lake Pedder, in Southwest National Park, Tasmania. The judges didn’t hand out any Golds, and only a few Silvers so a Bronze is a great achievement. Do you think they want us to try harder? [...]

I’m pleased to announce that I have won a bronze award for my Picnic Rocks, Tasmania panorama at this years Epson International Photography awards. I have entered two other pano’s but they have yet to be judged, lets hope they do as well.
