Federal Election Day in AUS. The polling booth was a sea of anti-Dutton posters. It was like the conservatives had simply given up. It became the biggest route of their party in my lifetime, with Dutton losing his actual seat. 📷 Nikon F2 🎞️ Ilford HP5 #australia #election #nikonf2 #ilfordhp5

I recently visited La Dolce Vita Restaurant in Milton for a plate of Brisbane's best pasta, and snapped this iconic Park St landmark whilst there. Have always loved this. 📷 Nikon F2 + Nikkor 50mm F1.4 🎞️ Ilford HP5+ (home developed) #nikonphoto #nikonf2 #nikon #ilford #ilfordphoto #ilfordhp5

A quick stop last week at the Toowong Cemetery. It's a very human place, somewhere to reflect on what really matters during our brief time of conscious existence. 📷 Nikon F2 🎞️ Ilford HP5+ (home developed) #nikonphoto #nikonf2 #nikon #ilford #ilfordphoto #ilfordhp5

Sex Pistols with Frank Carter - the most fun I've ever had at a concert. Rollei 35se, Ilford Delta 3200, set to f2.8, 1/125, max distance & shot overhead from within the moshpit. Absolutely wild. Amazed I got anything at all. 🤣 #ilfordphoto #rollie35se #sexpistols #frankcarter

Oxley Train Station. Eventually I was moved on & told I couldn't take photos there, whilst being publicly abused by rail staff in front of onlookers. They were wrong, what I was doing IS allowed there, but I've never gone back. Street Photographer problems! Nikon FM + Ilford HP5. #streetphotography

Took a drive through Queenslands Scenic Rim and took this shot of the small country road we were driving on. My partner had no idea what I was seeing. But I just liked the lines. Taken on a Nikon FM with Ilford Delta 400 film. #bnw #bnwphotography #filmphotography #blackandwhite #countryroad

I was playing around with some Fomopan 400 in my Leica M3, when these lovers caught my eye and I turned and just shot without time to focus. I actually really love this one. #bnw #bnwphotography #filmpgotography #leicam3 #fomopan #fomopan400 #bnwlovers #lovers
