I'm currently doing two art subjects at university; Drawing Ideas and Visual Arts. In both class, I have the opportunity to do an assignment in each, which I hope to use photography.
Firstly, in Drawing Ideas, we have to do 10-20 pieces of work relating to our personal identity. I'm hoping to capture some images of places from key frames in my memory, then overlaying elements from my memory over the images in a drawn format.
In Visual Arts, we have to do some imitation art inspired by an artist we were issued. I got given Sarah Lucas, who creates sculptures which feature sexual double entendres and everyday objects positioned in such a way that they become suggestive. I hope to use the existing architectural fabric of my surrounding world to create similar type images.
I will post my final images onto this blog.

Sydney 2013
Early this year in January I went on a family holiday to Sydney, NSW. I will eventually post some images on here but I have a lack of time and lack of physical data storage causing issues at the moment. I hope to acquire to new portable hard drives, one of which will be an exact clone of the other using RoboCopy, which comes standard with any windows machine Vista and newer.
In total, I have over 800 images that I captured over the 10 days I was there to rename into my storage format and some images may require minor post work.

Launceston Energy Bank Tornadoes vs Hobart Lady Chargers (16/03/2013)
On the 16th of March 2013, the Launceston Energy Bank Tornadoes played their season opener against the Hobart Lady Chargers at Action Packed Stadium, situated in Elphin, Launceston. At Half Time, the Tornadoes had scored 38 points to the Chargers 35 points.
However, much to the disappointment of the local audience, the Tornadoes were unable to win their first game of the season, losing the game with 66 points to the Chargers 83 points.
The top scorer for the Launceston Tornadoes was Olivia Howard scoring 20 points, with 3 fouls under her belt. Her performance was top notch when compared with the previous season, due to recovering from a knee injuring that plagued her career previously.
Hobart's Kylie McCauley was the Chargers' top scorer, scoring 22 points with 4 fouls.
Although Hobart won by a decent margin, the game was close until the start of the final quarter. This was appreciated by the local crowd; looking forward to the Torns' next local show down.

The New Year 2013
Well, it is now (as of three hours ago) 2013. I plan to do more photography this year, as I received my first DSLR for christmas; the Canon 600D. I have taken quite a few photos in the past couple of days so I shall filter through them and possibly post some here.
Also, as I always plan to do, on any photos that have had work in post, I will quote below the image the changes made, as I personally believe the image straight out of the camera should be good enough. People say all the time, "I need to go to post and do some cropping and straightening." My question is, why not just spend more time composing your images? It would save some time. Unless, there are limitations such as focal length issues (not being able to zoom close enough).
Anyway, hope this year is filled with joy and happiness.
