I'm not feeling very poetic...






Well we have the first edition of the Allendale Shooters Blogazine, if you would like a copy of this please contact us via email. This is a glossy 36pg magazine, it's pretty basic, but shows the best of our blog in printed format for 2008. The cost is $10.

Angry young men high on ignorance




Once again high on the elixir that so often imbues young men to feats of unsung ignorance; we were confronted. Not insomuch as confronted but conformed. Or at least not conforming too. Pertaining to privacy? What privacy? What privy? Or possibly just ignorant of Google street view.

Ignorance is the parent of fear . . .

At last the anchor was up, the sails were set, and off we glided. It was a sharp, cold Christmas; and as the short northern day merged into night, we found ourselves almost broad upon the wintry ocean, whose freezing spray cased us in ice, as in polished armor.
. . . because truly to enjoy bodily warmth, some small part of you must be cold, for there is no quality in this world that is not what it is merely by contrast. Nothing exists in itself.

The light at the end of the tunnel is the headlamp of an oncoming train





Better late than never... hmm steps




Well at least I tried, more photos of steps. They do have nice textures up close. I guess you could look at my website if you'd like to see something more interesting: Lookleft . Also stay tuned for the Allendale Shooters Blogazine.

...and yes, I did accidentally throw a bucket of water on myself and my camera





Well this was a rather damp experience for me, while Sam felt he had finished after 5mins I spend the rest of the evening throwing water on myself, my camera, the house, plants, trees, and a variety of local pets. I decided to slow things down after I accidentally threw half a bucket over my Nikon D3, I'm pleased you found this amusing Simon. It's worth having a look at the larger version of these pics as the detail is amazing. The second image is a close up of the third. Lookleft

Freeze punk!

A below average effort from Mr Shepherd this week - I stopped shotting about 10 minutes after having started. Some would say lazy, others that it doesn't take long for a genius to create a masterpiece. Anyway, there were far more important things to be doing - like watching Andrew throw buckets of water over himself.

Dew drops in the freeze frame






All shot with my trusty bike LED night light at about 250th/sec (Take that strobist!) ahahaha. This would have been a hell of a lot easier under natural light, but hey, it wouldn't be shooters if it wasn't hobbled together last minute in the dark... Kinda fun, and happy it actually worked. (oh and btw the shoot brief with "peak time")

Tanked...



Why Whine Wine








Rolling out once again in the hope of catching the dying rays of light dancing throught out the tank farm. Unfortunately I held up the rest if the team taking macro photos of the flowers in the front yard. I got caught up in the spring excitment via the fact that the sun was out and it was rediculously hot still at six in the evening. Mind you, my excitment was destroyed after Simon decided where we were going for dinner despite the fact he didn't even want anything cause he'd already eaten.

Devils in the detail





Shots from around the Tank Farm. Nothing like farming some tanks.
Obligatory shout out to the girls back home. Check out my blog. Oh wait this is my blog.
Nevermind

Everyone loves a silhouette... oh yes they do







Watch out for the latest issue of Idealog Magazine coming to the stores this week, there is a 7page article on fashion week, featuring designer Cybele Wirren, I did the photography for it. There are some other images on my website from the World show: Click here to see Lookleft

Caribou







After a brief time in hiatus, the shooters emerge again. This was our first outing where the sun was still in the sky - and we are still alive so at least that proves we are not vampires. Shooting in twilight should make a nice transition from our usual activities under the cloak of darkness. And for those still sratching their heads at the 'Caribou' reference - the answers you seek are here

Spring is a Panorama








Fine! Alright! Sam said i hand to right three full sentences. Firstly this weeks entry is bought to you by the letter B. B for borrowed. Which was the camera i used. B for barnacle, which i nearly tripped and fell into the sea on. (With said borrowed camera). Thats actually not true, but i wanted to say barnacle. As in beardy blue Bears, bloody bright burnished barnacles. Lastly, N for narcissism, for lookleft's shameless self promotion. :P
