Want to know more??? Of course you do...then read on...

I'm so awesome... cause I'm only really new to this whole photography thing. You know how they say that when you turn 21 you become a man (or woman) and your life takes on a whole new path, well thats what happened with me, kinda. I got a Canon 1000D for my 21st (thanks mum and dad) and from then on all study, relationships surfing and social skills have strangely dissapered. Just ask my girlfriend, she'll tell you how nuts I've gone, go on, ask her, her numbers 0408 63....haha.

I think coming into the whole photography thing late I have a different outlook on things. I'm sick of seeing zoomed in tight, super sharp pics of Mr Dane, Slater, Taj. I wanna see some flow....I wanna see shots with movenment. Which is why I really dig shots with a bit of shutter lapse, like speed blur kinda stuff, and bulb exposure, yeah that stuff's cool. Theres not enough of this going on in the surfing world...but there will be soon...

I'm not where I wanna be with my photography yet, but this is only due to experiance, so watch over the next month or so and I'll get a whole bunch of fresh pics on here with a bit of movenment in em (hopefully).

So yeah thats why I'm so awesome.

    Hey shane, you are far too kind sir. I like your tuna shot, you ever been to japan? At the fish markets they have tuna the size of a mini-mal. I'm guessing they weighed about 200kg at least, i'll have some shots up soon so check em out.

    Shane thanks heaps for the feedback mate, i really appreciate an honest opinion rather than "omg your stuff is so awesome stabbed, stab back" haha. I agree 100%, without water footage my stuff is very two dimensional, water footage really adds another element. Just wish i had the spare 2 g's to go grab a housing. Onto your stuff mate, really liked your bio(and the little spiel on dirt music i loved that book) and the whole vibe/perspective your going for with your photography i'm feeling it. Your scenic landscape stuff is really good i love the autumn shot it kinda captured my feeling towards autumn really well. To be critical the only shot im not feeling is the 'ned' shot just coz its a pretty average turn that dude is doing. Anyway ive managed to write a small novel here so take it easy and keep up the good work

  • STOP!....Feedback Time

    Posted on June 22, 2009

    I've just put up a few more galleries, very very keen to here what you all think. Love it, hate it, it don't matter, really keen to hear some constructive critisism that can hopefully turn average photos in well, better than average photos.

  • Shane's Tips to Beat the Recession

    Posted on June 13, 2009

    ok, so this recession gigs in full swing now. Thats gonna mean a few things a) you've got no money b) you've got no job c) you've got no flow d) you may have a slight stench of stale urine. But yeah, main point is you've got no money. And lets face it even if you did have a secret stash of coin under your bed, your probably gonna spend it on lollies and porn rather than expensive camera gear.
