I wouldn’t normal drop a video in, but you need to pay attention from the 37 sec mark… was very happy to this A, on the wall and B, without a 2nd thought Joel gave it a massive wrap!

I was behind the cameraman at the time and was very tempted to interject and claim some appraise but decided that would be very inappropriate. Any way here’s the original and its partner in crime along with some other Madden House warming pictures.

Lastly a massive thanks to all involved as you not have faith in my ability but you also make these amazing events so enjoyable to work on!

mcm media, what an events team. unstoppable. (visit take40.com)

vodafone, everyone was amazing, especially the social networking team. Loved your work on the media wall btw! (see more here and here)

Joel’s team, and lastly Joel himself. Even the small conversations had at the media wall while getting through almost a hundred pictures was time enough to realise he is a top bloke.

Plus a big thanks to the guys at ur1.com for helping out, because a great picture needs a great frame!

Another week of no waves around Sydney beaches set the scene for another wreck dive at Maroubra beach exploring the amazing Hereward shipwreck meters from the beach.

So this is part 2, my 3rd dive at the site… the 2nd was unsuccessful…

May the next visit be when the swell is 0ft, the water crystal clear with the sun shining and the wreck still exposed…
I might also win the lotto…

enjoy

During a recent shoot in Melbourne I managed to stay in St Kilda, it was a glorious weekend… These are some candid shots I took whilst we soaked up the beautiful relaxing sunset

A rather larger territorial Octopus sits patiently as I snap a few portraits. I’m just starting to snorkel Bare island at La Perouse, so hopefully a few more awesome creatures will start appearing soon.

Only a handful of time prior has this shipwreck made it self visible to this extent since it landed on the beach in 1898, Now 115 years later its the 1st time since we’ve readily had the technology to dive in and take snaps or video footage with our gopro’s etc…

Amazing to see and what’s even more amazing it’s so close to the beach!
It would be one of very few shipwrecks in the world that are accessible to snorkelers of all levels it flat ocean conditions straight off a sandy beach.

It was early morning and not a soul around, with two sets of eye snorkeling around it wasn’t long before I was made aware of this giant Wobbegong. Very placid and somewhere in the range of 2 meters long.

A rocking SBS 2 house party event at Guerrilla Bar in Glebe, you have to love SBS they do great things and provide us with awesome indigenous and foreign programs. Lovely people, lovely client and the venue, the best canapés i’ve tasted. I normally have an OCD thing going on with food whilst on the camera , but I could not resist, Justin the owner is doing great things here, watch out Glebe Hipsters!

A quick weekend away, no surfboard and sporting a back injury it was a lazy weekend by my standards…
Early morning cups of tea followed by ocean swims and long walks.
A hint of what life is like at 70.
