Afternoon light chasing

I've been observing colour changes in the sky and trying to capture that magical hour of light before the sun goes down. I watch where on the horizon the sun rises and where it sets, which is a shorter angle in winter time. These two shots are from the same pack as the ones taken in the fog, and yet they are so different. These were taken with my SX-70 camera with film of the same name, expired in 2005 (it was a great vintage). It's wonderful to stand and catch the last rays of the sun on these clear winter days.

Winter days are here

I'm not really a fan of colder weather, but I do love the change of seasons - falling leaves, golden afternoon light and when winter does set in - the fog. The fog in the photos below was so thick that we could barely see in front of us. I was lucky enough to have one box left of expired SX-70 film (that worked!)so a trip up the mountains was in order.

MCA Zine Fair Fun!!

We had a great day at the MCA Zine Fair on May 20th. My lovely husband Marcelo and I shared a table (for the first time). We had lots of visitors to our table and sold several prints and postcards. Was also lucky enough to be seated next to Anthea who is the maker of the beautiful Spoonful Zine.


We are looking forward to going the amaZINE Sunday in Wollongong.

MCA Zine Fair

Tomorrow I'll be at the MCA Zine Fair in Sydney selling some of my Polaroid postcards. Looking forward to a great day!

Afternoon Walk

I recently got a pack of Artistic Time Zero film that I thought I should save for a special occasion but then I thought life itself should always be a special occasion so I decided to shoot it. It was taken in the late afternoon with my SX-70 camera.

Change of Season

Morning and afternoon light in autumn is so beautiful...I just wish it would last a little longer. The same goes for my last pack of 600 integral polaroid film. I'd been saving this since it expired in 2009.
