MY LIFE IN IMAGES

I’ve just found out that the above image will be part of a slideshow continually displaying at the Head On Portrait Prize exhibition running at the Australian Centre for Photography from May 5 to June 11. The slideshow is made up of a shortlist of 200 images from the thousands of entries into the competition. I didn’t make it into the 40 finalists but I’m very happy to have my work acknowledged in this way…..next year one of the finalists??

So that’s month number 3 finished and here are my favourite images from 365:2010 in March:

PINK STAR
Nice little graphic image painted on the front of a store in Surry Hills

SUNDAY MORNING SWIM
When I can on a Sunday morning I visit the Andrew (Boy) Charlton pool in the domain and do a few lengths. The image effect was created using the Hipstamatic app on my iPhone.

UFO
The Hipstamatic app transforms a light fitting at work into a flying saucer.

LUNA LIGHTS
Took this image after a work party over at Luna Park, used the Helga filter from the Camera Bag app to give it a flatter tonal quality and make the lights stand out.

SILVER SCULPTURE
Another image from a visit to Boy Charlton where this sculpture features on the harbour shoreline. Converted using the PSMobile app.

If you want to see more of 365:2010 you can visit the set on Flickr and if you have a Facebook account you can become a fan and get the latest photo posted daily to your news feed.

So I’m now playing catchup a bit as I’m already into the 76th day of 365:2010. For those that don’t know it’s the simple premise of taking a photo every day, though the rules I have imposed on myself is that the image must have been taken and uploaded on the date,  no using old images allowed! So here are my favourite images from January:

ABSOLUT SEQUINS
Still life taken indoors with a simple table lamp and my Sony DSLR

LAMP SHADOWS
Simple photo of a floor lamp in my lounge, tinted and softened using the PS Mobile iPhone app

CAGES IN THE SKY
A laneway art installation of George St, taken with my iPhone

CRISS CROSS CLOUDS
Reflection of the sky in the new Macquarie Building down in the King St Wharf area, taken with my iPhone.
