I like this format. A single roll at a time, per post.
A marvellous yield of moments.
A long weekend in Melbourne for mum’s birthday.
A beach day in La Perouse, and a trip to view Cao Fei’s “my city is yours”
I recommend the foam pit.
Finally a selection from the shoot with Sean, previously seen on my last M/F roll.

5 of 10 shots from an old roll of tmax
Started on a walk through the secret garden in lavender bay with Rach. I spun too hard on one of those rotor things at the playground and got a headache... or maybe i was just really thirsty. thirty.
Man walking in front of the bridge/boats was first. I can’t imagine how pleasant it must have been to have a garden like this - it once belonged to Mr. Whiteley.
The writing on the handrail would make a good name for a book, or a band. In any case, what a beautifully succinct piece of graffiti.
Last few frames were comissioned by my dear friend, Sean Dwyer, for his upcoming solo EP. Finally an excuse to shoot the Gladdy bathroom.
...To have friends that not only support you, but include you in their creative endeavours, fills one’s cup to the brim.

ashfield, march 2025
This is down the street from where i live. Ashfield simultaneously feels welcoming, and communal - yet alien, and disconnected. It has history, and generations buried in the cemetary by my apartment.
