Day 21...

Our retarded cat in her favorite place... Right in front of the door, so we knock her over when we open it... Like I said... Retarded!

I first saw a photo exactly like this when Coyo was staying! His was EXACTLY like this, but I did take this... =)

My 20th CONSECUTIVE daily photo! WOW!

Another result of todays wee photo walk!

I have wanted to take a photo of this random garden boat for SO LONG! I first saw it about a year ago... But this is the first time I have ever photographed it... I think I might do a photo shoot with it... =D

WOOF! Week 21 of 52!

WOOF! Week 21 of 52!

I just got in from a wee photo walk... This is my neighbors dog! She can be quite scary sometimes... Thank god she was on a leash! =P

Now, you may be thinking 'This picture has no stones, OR kayaking in it!'

But it has stones! See in the bottom? Those are stones from the road! So there!

Anyway... There is a dog in this picture... A dog is an animal...

Week 22: Animal(s)...

They have a rainbow on the wall near the chancing rooms... I love it! Click! Photo taken!

I LOVE THE VINTAGE EFFECT TOO!!! Ahhh save me! The effect is consuming my body and mind... I cannot make a photo without it!!!

THIS IS JEFF! OHMYGOD! Jeff is so cool!

So... Today I got up to getting my present type stuff for KeriAnn's birthday... So I went into Harvey Norman to print a wee love graphic for her, while waiting, I accidentally set off the alarms that quard the Macbook Pros... Took them 5 minutes to turn the beeping off... Nice...

I took this while waiting for mum in the car... =D

I like it! =D

Does this need a title?

On the way home from Whangamata, we stopped off in Katikati to get Haans some breakfast (I had photography this/that morning at 10.30 in Rotorua...)

This painting intrigued me quite a bit... =P

Day 14...

Mum, Haans, and I are staying in Whagamata for a couple of days!!! This is my GC uncle, Drew, doing some musical recording...

He is an AWESOME musician, should be at least SLIGHTLY more famous than he is at the moment... Coz his music is rad!

Boom. Day eleven!

Yooooooo! I took this while working with dad today... Capturing the raw JOY of getting buried in leaves!

What more can I say? Today was wicked!







Jaxx

APPLES! (Inspired by Honeyjazz, on Flickr)!

Possibly my best daily exposure yet? I think so...

There is this chick on Flickr that calls herself 'Honeyjazz', she takes a lot of pictures like this... She is one of my favorite photographers in the world!

I made this with a vintage photo action I got online... It's my FAVE action! So rad! Ahh!

Anyway... I DID take this picture today, after boating with Jake, mum and I went apple picking! Yay!

Bokehlicious huh? =)

Plank that!

Well well well! Since Planking has become such a phenomenon, I thought my Daily Exposure should go along with the trend... Here you go!

My brother, Haans, Planking the SHIT out of those deck chairs!!!

And so... Week 2 of 'Daily Exposure' begins!!!

My beat of the day... Memory Lane, by Netsky!

My day basically consisted of, moping with a slight masculine flu going on... Which is far worse than any of that childbirth stuff... (JOKING!!! It was just a joke, so, for all you pretty ladies out there that have experienced the pain of childbirth, I am not having a dig at you... )

So I have been reading HEADPHONE REVIEWS!!! I think I'ma go with the Sony MDR-XB500 headphones... Not that you care... But you will when I let you try them, and then have to rip them off your head coz they're so mean... =)

Blah blah. That's it for today. Bye.

I have made it to 7 days of taking a photo everyday! Yay yah!

Fire... It is like a child, starts off little, needs looking after 24/7, and when the wood doesn't stack properly, it's F*CKING annoying!!! However... As it grows into a big, hot fire that keeps you warm on a cold evening/night, you cannot keep away the immense pride you feel like, 'Yep! I raised that fire!'

So yea... I made that strapping young fire right there...



Jaxx

Another day, another photo...

Okay, so all day I was helping my dad teach Kayaking in K-Town, then we went to the hot pools, and hopped out... I HAD BEEN CRAVING CHOCOLATE ALL DAY!!! So I got this scrummy bar...

F*CK YEA!!! (<----Quote of the day right there)

What more can I say? Tuesday was the day I chose to start 'Daily Exposure'... But, tomorrow will be Monday, and it will be my 7th photo... But my 7th photo should be taken on Tuesday no? WTF?!?!?!

Anyway... My link for next week will be 'Walking'.

Week 20: Walking.

I missed yesterday, because something was wrong with blogger! Sorry!

Righto!

Since I missed yesterday, I'll throw yesterdays photo on as well!





My kitty cat... His name is Tahi. He is my favorite!

I also blended the Tahi image with a lovely, bokehlicious sunset image I took ages ago...

I quite like it! Hopefully you do too!


Also,



Cole my homie!!! I took this while him, Carl, and Andre were doing slalome before our runs...


Pretty rad huh?

What? I have made it 3 days? Unbelievable right?

So... I walked outside to take some casual photos, and hopefully find my Daily shot... This is what I found!

That little white speck is the moon, and this was taken about, what? 15 metres away from my front door!

I took it on my GoPro using my new LCD BacPac!!! The LCD is a very useful tool for this wee camera... It also eliminates the need to spend a grand on a fisheye lens for my 7D!

Another day, another photo...

So... I have been upset all day, and I'm not my normal self at the moment... But seeing this committed dude, out there in the pouring rain, just to catch a couple of fish, and getting to take a photo of him, seemed to cheer me up a little...

Thanks, random fisherman with an American accent! =)

Heart marks. Week 18 of 52!

Heart marks. Week 18 of 52!

<3 Me and ma girlfriend! Boom! This picture wasn't quite what I planned, but I think it's all good...

Thanks Joni for painting us! And holding the camera! Apparently, if someone else presses the shutter button for a photo YOU have planned, it is their photo anyway... So Joni had to hold the camera and I had to keep KeriAnn tippy toeing while balancing myself AND reaching over to press the shutter button... I'm amazing... =P

Anyway! I want to see if I can pick up my camera more this week, so I will have no link this week, and just throw up my favorite photo from the week! Yay!

Week 19... ANYTHING!!! YAY!!!

While waiting...

While at Steve's wedding, we lazed out with wine, beer and DNB blasting from my FOUR DOLLAR IPOD SPEAKERS that I had bought earlier in the day... Haans and I had non-alcoholic beverages of course...

Also notice my 'Love logo' which I paint on photos that have things I like or LOVE in them! In this picture, I love my iPod and FOUR DOLLAR SPEAKERS!!!
