I wanted to recreate a look from classic 1970s night time photography in movies. I used Open Source Photography’s CineStill 800T LUT to help me get the look (https://marcrphoto.wordpress.com/2025/02/28/picturefx-cinestill-800t-v2-0-lut/).
My entry for 52 Frames week 32 – Night.
One of the entrances to the Sydney Opera House is underneath the well-known sails. It is a large cave with concrete “ribs” that are part in sunlight and part in shadow.

My entry for 52 Frames week 30 – Negative Space.
A little while ago now (I heard today is the last day of winter on the radio, this morning) I saw such a beautiful red tree on my morning walk.
I was really struck by the interior of the SAHMRI building in Adelaide. It was great to see that so much effort had been put into making what needs to be a highly functional research building an interesting place to work.
Seen while walking the Goods Line in Sydney, a re-greened rail corridor in the style of New York’s Manhattan Sky Line.
Inspired by the idea of a treehouse, the building was designed by architect Frank Gehry as “a growing learning organism with many branches of thought, some robust and some ephemeral and delicate”.
My son’s birthday coincides nicely with the Sydney Vivid festival, where “art, technology and commerce intersect” – three weeks of light shows and sculpture that brighten up the city during the cold (and sometimes wet) winter here.
Taronga Zoo has put on an event for the last few years, with wonderful light sculptures that look like giant stained-glass animals. Needless to say, an afternoon at the zoo, followed by a trip through this surreal landscape after dark has become a favourite.
