Short Story #3 comes to you from Vietnam and involves two of my favourite things in the world: travel and food! While Short Story #1 had somewhat of a comical element to it, and Short Story #2 recounted my adventures as an unwitting 19-year-old, I am writing this story based on my heart warming experience of how food brings people together. I … More Short Story #3: A Grumpy Old Man and Giggling Women
I’ll keep this post short and sweet. The sun is shining and life is good in Sydney town. I think these photos speak for themselves and as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here is my 6,000 word post in pictures. Enjoy! :: Louie :: Coogee Beach, Sydney: 7km from the … More My Week in Colour
My little home suburb of Coogee has come to life over the last week or so as the weather slowly warms up here in the great south land. The sun is rising earlier and setting later, allowing for a pre-work surf and an after-work swim. This morning I decided to get a coffee and take … More Coogee: Spring Light
Weather wise, it has been a mixed bag in Sydney lately. We have had three straight weeks of rain, wind and storms, however the sun has come out to play these last couple of days. You can see the change in people’s faces and everyone seems to have an extra spring in their step. I … More The Week in Photos
Over the years, my bucket list has taken on different forms with the order changing and certain items dropping off, only to be replaced by something new to reflect my changing priorities and needs in life. While my bucket list has been somewhat fluid over the years, there are those certain ticket items that have not changed. For me, … More Daring to Dream
I recently took a trip up the coast to my home away from home. For me, Crescent Head on the Mid-North Coast of New South Wales is a place where I can get away from the big smoke of Sydney and reset. This quiet little town offers everything I need to recharge the batteries and … More Exploring Parts Lesser Known
Did you see the sunset last night? It was hands down the best sunset I have ever seen in Sydney! Unfortunately for me I didn’t get any photos of my own as I was on the bus on my way home from work. Yep, there I was, stuck in peak hour traffic when the sky put on … More Sydney’s Light Show & The Modern Day Commuter
I am having one of those days today. I am sitting in an inner-city office going through the motions. The air-conditioning is broken (again) and the surf is pumping. The first I heard of it was on the bus this morning on my way into work. “Should I just stay on and head home?”, I … More Gainfully…um…Daydreaming
I’ve been getting some use out of my GoPro Hero 3 of late. Below are a few stills of a shore break session from a couple of weeks ago at my local beach. I’m heading out on a deep sea fishing charter this weekend so will hopefully have some more footage to post soon… Fingers … More A View of the Land That Most People Don’t Get to See
A repost from one of my favourite photographers, Clarke Little. I could look at this shot for hours and just be happy. Not a drop out of place.
