The comings, the goings and some other things in between
Well, summer in Australia is officially over. Luckily for me, our climate doesn’t really change all that much year round. The first two weeks of Autumn have so far produced sunny days with an average temperature of around 28 degrees celsius, or 82.4 farenheit as Google leads me to believe. The water temperature is still … More Farewell Summer
I am not a religious man but I am someone who has a viewpoint on most things in this world. I am neither against or for any religion in particular and I think that all religions have their positives. The one thing I do know however, is that the idea of religion has been exploited … More A Very Papal Question…
It has been an eventful week for me. I hope you enjoy these pics as much as I enjoyed taking them. A familiar scene but taking photos of the sun rising over the ocean never gets old. The swell finally faded at the end of the week. A birthday … More The Week in Photos

If ever there was a heaven on earth, I would have to say that it is nestled in the mountainous region between France and Spain. I have travelled quite a bit in my life so far and have only come across one place that has the three pillars of happiness: great food, surf and happy … More Donosti (San Sebastian)
Over the years I have come to realise that life is forever changing. I remember being told when I was young that I should not take anything for granted and that life will pass you by in an instant. Back then, I laughed this notion off and thought that I would spend the rest of … More El Mar, Mi Alma (The Ocean, My Soul)
I bought myself a new phone a few weeks ago. I resisted the three week wait for the new iphone and instead went for the Samsung Galaxy s3. I’ve never really been into gadgets or technology all that much but when discovered the camera on this phone, I haven’t been able to put it down. … More Eastern Photos
Another Cup, another loss for me yesterday. I only bet one day a year and every year I am more often than not reminded that I am not a gambler and have no idea about horse racing. After coming to terms with the loss of my hard-earned fiver, I settled in with the punters and … More Cup Day down on the Harbour
