Firstly, apologies to the Marx Brothers, Groucho, Chico and Harpo for using their 1937 film title, well sort of. Spending a weekend in Goulburn watching, hearing and photographing cars that I grew up with is something special. Anne and I have done this twice before.

I keep returning to Scandinavia, often to Stockholm, and enjoy walking through its urban expanse, finding photos amidst both crowds and quiet.

The Palouse region of southeastern Washington State is a true un-destination, as well as being a photographer’s dream. Reminiscent of a gentler time, it is a unique and solitary landscape where zephyr winds scatter clouds across the blue sky, causing shadows to dance and play amongst the hills.

Don’t get me wrong. Arles is lovely. Old stone, big river, huge history. And surprisingly tourist-free, thanks to the nearby beaches. Definitely go to Arles, it’s (almost) un-destination territory and fabulous for photography. But, if you’re in search of old stone, nice river and high photographic interest, Brittany has a lesser known proposition that’s deep […]
