I visited my family in Melbourne over the new year’s period and tried to take some hyperlapse footage of some of St Kilda’s landmarks such as the pier, Palais Theatre and the creepy, omniscient clown smile of Luna Park. The results were a bit shaky but, I think, still managed to be compelling in aContinue reading “Atmospheric hyperlapses of St Kilda landmarks”

Every Picture Tells A Story: Auckland by Night Part 2
Our new camera got a big work out on our night walks through the eastern suburbs. This looks towards the city centre and with a huge zoom on the camera we were able to capture the night-time hustle and bustle of the Ports of Auckland. A constant fixture of background activity is always going onContinue reading “Every Picture Tells A Story: Auckland by Night Part 2”
Every Picture Tells A Story: Auckland by Night 1
Every night I was going for a massive walk along Tamaki Drive in Auckland, a long stretch of beach-side road. It was very atmospheric at night and had a sense of eerie abandonment. This bridge in between Orakei and Mission Bay once was a ferry terminal until the 1960’s but is now an old fishingContinue reading “Every Picture Tells A Story: Auckland by Night 1”
Every picture tells a story: A pristine Japanese afro
This guy had the coolest hair in Tokyo. Him and his mate were so chill, just smoking and shooting the shit, talking about life in a back alley near Shibuya. People in Tokyo tend to do wild things to their appearance to differentiate themselves from everyone else. As a result, nobody bats an eyelid ifContinue reading “Every picture tells a story: A pristine Japanese afro”
Every picture tells a story: Rainbow neon street scene in Asakusa
Here’s another photo I took strolling around at night in Asakusa in Tokyo. In these little alleys, there is an air of intimate and cosy homeliness, I guess this is thanks to the locals. On a micro scale, these alleys had a really neighbourly and friendly vibe, this is completely contrary to what I thoughtContinue reading “Every picture tells a story: Rainbow neon street scene in Asakusa”
Every picture tells a story: In every neon alley, a world
In every dark alleyway there’s a new world to discover in Tokyo filled with tiny izakayas, strangely named bars and vending machines. It’s possible to never go down the same street twice or ever become bored of new and interesting things to see and do. The hidden danger is that when you leave, it willContinue reading “Every picture tells a story: In every neon alley, a world”
Every Picture Tells A Story: Tamaki Drive at Night
I have a complicated relationship with Auckland. Over the past five years since we moved here, the city has become a bloated, enormous metropolis which simply cannot sustain its ever-growing population. Essentials like roads, public transport, health care and housing have fallen apart at the seams in Auckland leading us to head south and awayContinue reading “Every Picture Tells A Story: Tamaki Drive at Night”
Every picture tells a story: Kanpai in Asakusa, Tokyo
As darkness falls over Asakusa in Tokyo, loads of locals who have just finished work head to their favourite local restaurant for some amazing and succulent ramen. A lady brandishes a treat in the air and makes her Chiba Inu jump and twirl for the entertainment of passers-by. Salarymen and tourists on their third orContinue reading “Every picture tells a story: Kanpai in Asakusa, Tokyo”
Windy Wellington shows her pretty side on Guy Fawkes Night
It’s a bit of a mystery why a far-flung Capital City like Wellington in New Zealand would actively celebrate a rebellious plot against King James I of England/ King James VI of Scotland in 1605. Nevertheless the appeal seems to be because of the emission of huge amounts of pyrotechnics and fireworks. Who doesn’t enjoyContinue reading “Windy Wellington shows her pretty side on Guy Fawkes Night”
