Brisbane at night
Courtesy of my new tripod I am finally able to take all those night time photos without all the jittering. Opening the lense at night I felt always allowed for capturing movement within a static form like a photo such as the blur of car lights and people moving through the picture frame. However I am currently struck by the sombre stillness of man made objects standing in the built environment. These human made objects built to add convience to humans appear so void of life but still possess a strong beauty.
Latest Project: using the disused
The latest piece of furniture in my lounge room now holds up the television and DVD boxes. In a past life this cabinet held kitchen cups and crockery above the kitchen bench. After salvaging it from a renovation job, I added a top, and painted it a bright sun yellow. With the addition of some castors it now has a differnt purpose in life and we now stare at it all day and night whilst pretending to watch the black box. still have to add the glass doors back on and would like to put a frosted grahpic on these. So I suppose you could consider this a work in progress. The photos show the before and after, see if you can tell the difference.
