Tree in forest: Operation Cripple Crutches - Buy the Prints!

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2011/01/operation-cripple-crutches-buy-prints.html

Saturday, January 29, 2011. Operation Cripple Crutches - Buy the Prints! UPDATE - Thanks to two secret squirrels, I will soon have shiny crutches. Prints are still on sale; profits will be going into my general medical expenses pool. See this evening's post. But, my physio called yesterday to tell me about some new ones she'd seen an ad for, which she thought I might be interested in. Take a look at the smartCRUTCH. SmartCRUTCH - they even come in pink! Exciting, aren't they! In the meantime, if you're l...

Tree in forest: It's snowing in Amsterdam

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2010/12/its-snowing-in-amsterdam.html

Sunday, December 5, 2010. It's snowing in Amsterdam. Snow on bicycles, Amsterdam. iPhone photo. Well From the sunny summer Botanic Gardens in Sydney, to Amsterdam in the middle of a snowfall is a bit of a jump, but that's where I find myself right now. I'm currently sitting in the cafe at FOAM photography museum. I'm enjoying the snow, but I still find it deeply weird. Think about it - feathery ice drifting down from the sky - how odd is that!

Tree in forest: Thank you!

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2011/01/thank-you.html

Monday, January 31, 2011. Happy Dutch Snowman is happy! Well, I'm about to go and amend this morning's post. Two people have formed an unholy alliance, and are buying my crutches. How cool is that! I'll thank 'em publicly as soon as I find out whether or not they're willing to be called out. In the meantime, I'm still selling prints, but the funds will be going into the general 'Pay Arwen's medical bills' pool. See some more nice picture freephotogallery24.

Tree in forest: Wanted: Advice and minions

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2011/01/wanted-advice-and-minions.html

Monday, January 3, 2011. Wanted: Advice and minions. I'm slowly wading through the images from the recent trip - expect a post on Dubai soon. In the meantime though, I could use some suggestions. I love making pinhole images, but the long exposures are proving too hard on my feet. Hopefully the shiny new camp stool makes longer exposures less painful. Other than that, the only other idea I can come up with is to find a volunteer or two to come on night ambles and carry some of the gear for me, so I don't...

Tree in forest: Foto Phriday - Botanica

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2010/11/foto-phriday-botanica.html

Saturday, November 20, 2010. Foto Phriday - Botanica. Traditionally used for dropsy and other heart conditions. There's a possibly apocryphal story of a doctor discovering it's uses by talking to an old woman in country England about her remedies, then extracting the isolated component digoxin, which is still in use today. It's quite poisonous, though, if you don't need it, so I don't recommend adding it to salads! Sadly, I didn't come away with too many images that I was happy with - I do hate a pedestr...

Tree in forest: Snapping away

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2010/12/snapping-away.html

Thursday, December 30, 2010. The Netherlands is both lovely and photogenic - shame I couldn't make the most of it. If I'm working somewhere I'm familiar with, I'm usually reasonably happy to take my time. To find the little details that add depth to an image, and make pictures that work as images, not quickly-hazarded copies of whatever I see in front of me. It's the premature ejaculation of photography, and most annoying. So what's the solution? Nice shots. Great color combination. Photography, Thoughts...

Tree in forest: Reading the tea leaves

http://tree-inforest.blogspot.com/2010/10/reading-tea-leaves.html

Friday, October 8, 2010. Reading the tea leaves. I'm writing this post in a Chinese teahouse in Surry Hills, Sydney, sipping a rare and precious rock tea, with the owner's very well behaved poodle sitting on the chair beside me. Very civilised, yes? Tea drinking is a ritual for me - sometimes a very quick ritual, but a ritual none the less. It's a touchstone of calm and gratitude, and a chance to sit with the deep, steady serenity that lives within us. How is this relevant to photography? I rarely say th...
