On Sat­ur­day Mike and I met up for another round of pho­tog­ra­phy. Our sec­ond, in whats turn­ing out to be a monthly event. We’d agreed on a 7:45am start, but I didn’t get there until just after 8am. I put the blame squarely on hor­ri­ble, hor­ri­ble win­ter cur­rently grip­ping Mel­bourne. Both me and the car aren’t big fans of sub-Antartic temperatures.

When not grum­bling about the weather, I man­aged to take a good amount of pho­tos. I eas­ily cleared 200, a feat eas­ily done con­sid­er­ing we spent almost six hours on the job. For the most part we roamed the city streets, but a quick sug­ges­tion by Mike saw us wan­der down to South­bank. Of course no pho­to­shoot of Mel­bourne would be com­plete with­out a visit to the fer­ris wheel (Mike’s words, not mine), so we fol­lowed the Yarra River upstream to Bir­rung Marr.

As it was my sec­ond time out with the new 50mm lens I wanted to see what I could get out of it. Although Ange wasn’t taken by any of the pre-process pho­tos I’d taken, I have a few favourites. I’ve put three of the bet­ter ones on Flickr, but more will come.
