Flashback: A Pair of Swimmers

Two swimmers coming back onto the beach. Taken in 2001, (I think) around March, on the Gold Coast.

Game Face

My little brothers playing Halo: ODST on Xbox. Apart from spending time with their children, this is our favourite thing to do when we hang out. I'm sad that I'm so far away from them.

MSO: Concert 2, 2009

Feb 14, 2009

Concert 2: conductor, Oleg Caetani, and his merry crew get stuck into the coda of Ravel's Daphnis & Chloé.

I've been waiting a fair while to see this live. The arrangement was great - it was better than that of a recording of Karajan conducting the Berliner Harmoniker by Deutsche Grammophon that I have.... which is really the only one I know... I don't actually know what I'm talking about.

Lots of chromatic aberration on the whites of the music sheets and the trumpets on the big screen... but I was quite far away. There's a 5950 x 2465 version on Flickr.

Alexander Gardens

Sitting at Riverland I took this. I love Alexander Gardens - when people aren't being mugged in them.

I welcome summer with open arms.
