ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The availability of travel and holidaying has personally been a rarity over the past couple years, with good reason. Covid put a halt to holidaying and exploring new territories; opening my eyes and my camera shutter to new architecture. But being placed in a metaphorical box is not such a bad thing as it forces us to think outside the box. In the absence of travel, I forced myself to explore and wonder the city streets of Brisbane, and then eventually Sydney. I found more that I knew existed in my own home city, and even more unique attributes and beauty in Sydney. This image is from the fabulous building, 'The Exchange' in Sydney, Australia.

AUTHOR
I am a very enthusiastic and arty individual who loves to be involved in anything relating to Photography, Communications and any sort of new media. In 2004 I completed my Bachelor Degree in Multimedia which introduced me to media elements such as video capturing and editing within Adobe Premiere, Sound development in Soundforge and ACID Pro, Photography and graphic editing with Photoshop and Lightroom, and interactive projects using Flash and Director. I then completed my Graduate Certificate in Communications at the start of 2016 which developed my skills further within media publications, company relations and media communications.

I have enjoyed studying the art of photography for the past 12 years and I continue to learn and try my hand at all types of photography work. I am continually learning more about the different styles and concepts of photography, and also about the editing process through Photoshop, Lightroom and similar photographic effects programs such as Topaz Effects.

Designing graphic art and publications has become a great love of mine in recent years. Again I continue to try and learn the functionalities of new programs such as Adobe Muse (websites) and Adobe Indesign (Media publications) and feel that I can pick these programs up very quickly. Over the years I have self-taught myself to use Photoshop, Lightroom, Muse, InDesign and of course my Cannon camera.
