Latest News
Perth PhotoLive Expo 2018 is here
Camera Electronic’s Perth Photolive Expo is happening again in Perth this Saturday. This is the 4th Photolive Expo for Perth, and if last year is anything to go by it will be huge. It’s all happening on Saturday 28th July at the Novotel Langley Hotel in the Perth CBD from 9am – 5pm.
Toys, talks, walks and workshops…
Photolive is like a wonderland of toys for photographers, with stands from just about everything photographic, where you can play with all the latest gear, talk directly to the manufacturing reps and grab some once a year huge discounts.
There are inspiring half hour talks from some of the photo industry’s great photographers that are $16 presale ($25 on the day), photowalks around town to test and try some of the latest gear (free with entry ticket), and super condensed jam packed 2 hour workshops from leading professional photographers that are $75 pre sale ($95 on the day subject to availability).
Print Workshop.
Last year at Photolive I ran a 2 hour print workshop that was a sellout success, 3 days of intensive digital printing workflow in 2 hours! But it’s ok, as I provide comprehensive notes to take home so everyone could remember it all.
This year I am doing it all again, but with more toys. I will have a Canon Prograf Pro-1000 printer and an Epson P800 printer to run demos on, as well as Eizo and the new and exciting BenQ graphics monitors to show you a slick colour management workflow. I am also hitting the guys at Camera Electronic up for some beautiful Hahnemuhle art papers to really show what these amazing printers can do beyond the usual RC paper photo prints.
Booking and availability
I believe there are still a couple of places left on this workshop a well as places on the other great workshops and talks, so visit photoliveexpo.com.au to book, or call the crew at Camera Electronic (08) 9328 4405.
Musings on the Phase One XF and IQ3-100
Back in April and May of 2017 (last year as I write now) I wrote about my experiences researching the two new 100mp offerings from Phase One and Hasselblad, the Phase One XF camera with IQ3-100 digital back and the Hasselblad H6D-100… and how I chose which one to buy to upgrade from my ageing Hasselblad H4D-60. To summarise the results of that research, I chose the the Phase One XF and IQ3-100, for details of the process you can read about it HERE>>
back from Tasmania Photo Tour Part 4
Continuing on with the story from my back from Tasmania photo tour part 3 post of a few weeks back… which I left in Corinna, the heart of the Tarkine wilderness. The next stop was a complete change of scene as we headed up into the cloud forests and open grasslands of the Cradle Mountain National Park, a very different landscape to the thick temperate rainforest and wild windswept coastline of the Tarkine.
More from the secret spot near Corinna Tasmania
From the same secret spot near Corinna in the Tarkine region in the North West corner of Tasmania, a spot we were shown on the last photo tour of Tasmania earlier this year. A magical creek flowing through towering old growth temperate rain forest, a real fairyland place filled with delicate mushrooms, huge Man Ferns and moss covered stones. I kept expecting to see fairies or elves… I’m sure they are there somewhere, perhaps hiding under these mushrooms.
Secret Spot in the Tarkine near Corinna
More in the series of posts from my recent Tasmania Photo tour in March 2018. Many of the small creek beds around the town of Corinna in the Tarkine Region of Tasmania were pretty badly trashed by prospectors panning for gold in the 1880s. Those guys weren’t too concerned with natural beauty of the environment, they just wanted gold as fast as possible! That was over 100 years ago, and the forest has regenerated and recovered so you would hardly know humans had been there, until you find a place that was never trashed…
This is a secret spot revealed to Paul and I by an old local prospector in Corinna on the last Tasmania Photo tour back in March. It’s only 10 minutes off the track, but you would never know it was here if you weren’t looking…
