Week 43

L - Giggin and Gyoza - I said I would never do this but I used my phone for this weeks photo. I had a wonderful Saturday night eating some yummers Japanese food...mmmh Gyoza and went to see the Temper Trap. Fab. So that really the excitement for this week.

R - Help me I'm melting - hottest July 24th on record hit 102 I think, but the "real feel" was 108F (42C). Went out for a spot of lunch and a spot of heatstroke, but nothing several pints of water and a 2 hour nap couldn't fix. The whole city is buzzing to the sound of air conditioning units and I walked past this old hipster one still fulfilling it's cooling destiny and thought it deserved to be remembered forever.

Weed 42

L - Experimental - Well I did not have much time for photos this week but whilst trying something else my phone showed up in the photo. So I started messing with album covers in my ipod and this is what I got. Bit random but experimenting is what its all about.

R - during a storm one night I took several long exposures of a flag across the street and overlayed them and did stuff I can't remember and this is how it turned out. The cool blue and vignette came all by themselves, shame the stars weren't as bright as the stripes.

Week 41

L - Sucked into Twilight - Yep...I resisted this for over 2 years but I saw one of the movies recently and decided I might read the book....don't think I have read a book so quickly in a long time. I have read 2 of the books in almost as many days!! So this photo sums up the last week.

R - Local artist BK Adams recently put a new sculpture installation in an empty lot by my apartment. For ages I've been meaning  to take my camera and snap a few pics. This is my favourite piece, a chair on the top of a 20ft pole but there are a few other goodies that surprisingly haven't been stolen or damaged.

Week 40

L - Boring I know...30th of June is the end of the tax year in Australia and I spent a fair bit of last week looking at figures and filling out forms. It also marks 6months of us running our own business! Onwards and upwards

R - I guess it's the "morning after" the 4th of July. We watched the fireworks from a friend's rooftop drank and ate lots and had a fun time. This morning I was walking Deigo and saw this pile of spent fireworks and I thought it summed up the morning perfectly - burnt out! It's also supposed to hit 100 degrees today and 104 tomorrow ug!
