It hit me as I walked down the steps and across the tarmac. That feeling of déjà vu. I started remembering all the times I’d arrived at this same airport, in my eyes it hasn’t changed much over the past 40 or so years. I can’t even begin to add up the number of times I’ve flown in or out…

My parents have recently retired which, when they are still in their very early 60s/late 50s is really bloody early. I had like 5 mins worrying about what they would do with this new found freedom of the daily grind then I realised they are going to be even busier now than ever before. You see…

Photography captures a moment in time This photo represents a moment in time. As I flew up the coast, on the way to visit my parents, the views from my window seat were amazing. Who I am, what I’m doing, what I’m thinking and where I fit in the world are encapsulated in the action of taking this photo but only what…

I’m so glad that last bit was added in, about it being OK to show a healthy dose of messiness, because here’s my take on…

Just a week ago I was up north in Brisbane in Qld where autumn was not evident at all. It was a pleasant 25 degrees during the day and no autumnal colours were on show. I returned home…
