VIEWED AT ONCE |

Did a quick shoot for Kerb Coffee, across the road.

My mate Charles Blumer designed the Lounge Log as part of his final project in Design at COFA. We photographed it at the Centennial hotel.  Special thanks to the manager, Amanda for giving us the space for a couple hours, all for the cost of a few gin and tonics and a sit on the Log.

In spring 2009 I went through a pretty serious bout of depression.  Well, at the time, being a guy, an athletic guy, with manly athletic friends, I didn’t realize it was depression.  I tried to play it down and hold it in and dealt with it by ignoring it.

It didn’t work.

What did work was going to my doctor and discussing it with her.  She was great, and it was as if she’d heard it all before and knew exactly how to help me with it.  She referred me to two websites.

and

I have a lot to thank these two sites for, and it seemed that the least I could do was grow a mustache and try to raise some awareness and money for helping men suffering from depression.

Thanks internet cognitive therapy sites.

Anyway, I’ve decided to grow a mustache in Movember to help, here’s my donation page:

and here’s a link to my daily pic of my mo:

Any help would be great.

Spent the past week in Tasmania, in a little old Hydro town called Tarralleah trying to get these little guys.  This is the one that didn’t get away.

A group of guys who were at the Carnarvon Cup, the guy on the right cracks me up.  He seems to be the black sheep of the group.  Just another request for a group portrait by a bunch of drunk guys.

That’s pretty much what everyone saw this morning when we woke up.  The sydney dust storm made headlines around the world.  I only saw the end of it, thanks to a good sleep in.

From our front room, looking down on Centennial Park.

The Pacific Ocean + Dust.

so here is one of Red Bluff.  A pretty popular (by WA standards) surf spot.
