I’m back in the UK now after a whistle-stop tour of Japan, China, Singapore and Australia. It seems that technology was conspiring against me on this trip as both my laptop and my phone gave up the chase on multiple occasions (ironically, the only time they were both working was in China).
Still, being back has allowed me to download lots of photos and movies (more of that in another post), so its time to get caring and sharing once more…
Kicking off, is a wonderful – and, as far as I can tell, unique – sequence of images of the iconic Sydney Opera House. The Australian east coast has been subject to much stormy weather of late and I lucked out on one particular day off with a series of massive squalls and bright blue skies.
As I was reviewing the images, I felt they stood well individually but that they stood even better as sequence. Viewed as whole, they are a testament to how varied the climate – and, therefore, photographic light – can be during a 24 hour period.
Hope you enjoy the work and there’ll be more from Asia very soon…

Tom. It would be difficult to arrest someone standing on a private balcony shooting for non-commercial use, which I was. However, your point is an extremely good one – namely, it’s becoming an increasing hassle to take pictures anywhere at the moment, let alone of ‘public wonders’ that the likes of me and you have paid for. After years of rolling over on this issue, its time to get a bit more militant, I think…
