Out an about on an iPhone
I've used a range of traditional and digital photography equipment, but recently have taken to using my iPhone while out and about. Later, I do some balancing and enhanced in Photoshop. I've found if you start with a good shot and then any enhancements simply help to bring out the most interesting elements to an image.
At psychological level I use these images to communicate something that lays just below the surface, they lead me into a story, even if that story is just a mood or a feeling.
Finger Wharf in Sydney’s Wooloomooloo is an area I frequently visit at different times of day on my walks. I've provided a “before-n-after” glimpse into what colour reworking has been done. The “after” seem to help me step back in time.

Looking up at the Centre Point Tower from the atrium of the Sydney CBD Westfields. I’ve done very little to alter this image. I managed to capture the colour of the city on a rainy day. a naturally occurring high contrast of an almost white sky, against dark buildings. The image is like two merged plains, one an elongated persecutive background with that of a foreground roof window in a shape of a framed cross.

A building in the Sydney CBD that looks to have been inspired by the art of the great H.R.Giger. Again using high contrast light of sky and building. It has a slightly menacing feeling because the organic shapes are meshed in steel. I kept wondering “what lies below?”

There's something a little worrying about Clowns; perhaps it’s their pathos, their hopelessness. Here I’ve caught the “shadow” of one stalking another.
