It’s crazy what they can fit in a little camera these days. I was looking for a camera for a friend and I was amazed. The nikon P6000 has a whopping 13.5 megapixels and it’s only $560! Ok, that is a bit expensive for a compact camera, but the first digital camera ever my dad ever got was $1000 for 3.2 megapixels. That’s some serious improvement in only a few short years. Sounds like there are going to be quite a few storage upgrades soon.

Speaking of which, I was going through my memory cards and I found this. It came with my dad’s first digital camera.

That’s 16 megabytes not 16 gigabytes.

Trying out something different

Alice really enjoyed the night. She sang a lot of songs and she’s not a bad singer either

Ying was an amazing singer. The first time she sang I thought we had left the back-up singer function on

Alice’s new camera. She really loves pink

That framing is awesome. She must have had some serious practice. Every time I do that I always end up cutting at least half of my face

I had an interesting insight into GPS tennis the other day. I agreed to shoot a tennis match for my brother and I was told “we’re going to lose but we’re going to hit harder than them so it will look like we’re winning”. Interesting. But then again, Kings has such a good reputation in most sports and Sydney Boys is so lacking that the outcome seemed so certain.  Sydney Boys did a good job though. They didn’t win but they did manage to hold their own for most of the day.

Since I’ve started shooting events for my agency there haven’t been a lot of photos that I have been able to share because the client usually has the exclusive rights to the photo, but today, I had the chance to cover a fun and (unfortunately) overcast world record attempt at Bondi. Havaianas were trying to set the record for the most number of people gathered together on inflatable thongs. They apparently missed out by a little bit. Oh well, theres next Australia Day, hopefully with a bit more sun.

Some people still had an awesome time trying to catch waves on their makeshift body boards. Good to see.

These things lost air quite quickly though

He left his surfboard at home. A Havaianas will do just as fine

Talking about Australian spirit, I want that hat

A bit of Bondi Rescue action (nobody was hurt. They just needed the boat out on the water just in case)
