Still here and loving it!
Monday 10th November
So, nearly two months in and im still loving the life here. I have settled well and been extremely busy over the last few weeks. I have managed to get out and explore what Perth has to offer. Recently Perth held the Red Bull Air Race which was an amazing weekend. I have visited Rottnest Island twice and been on a wine tour. Work is going well and i have made contact with a few local bands, one of which i have photographed. Pictures are available to view on www.flickr.com, search with the tag "docgp"

Time for an update.
I have moved to Perth, Australia about a month ago and all i can say i wow! This place is amazing, I am currently living in Northbridge which is right on the edge of the city which is ideal for me to continue my music photography. I have found an electrical job, and work North of the the city in a place called Neerabup. I am working on a substation that is being built for the continual expansion of the city and suburbs, so there is plenty of work for me.
In the next couple of weeks i will be posting some photographs of the area around here, the city itself and also some bands and musical street performers, so keep an eye out.
Until then, keep smiling.
Welcome!

Photography started as an innocent hobby when I bought my first DSLR for travelling. Instantly I was enjoying the noise of the camera shutter and capturing events in life that I will enjoy viewing again and again.
I have travelled exhuastivly through Asia and Australia for several months,visiting Vietnam, Laos Cambodia and Thailand capturing the postcard image was a challenge, but after a short time I needed to get more interesting images and angles to show off the countries I visited. To this day I enjoy my travel photography, with new experience lined up in the next few months.
I use both digital and film cameras to capture every moment I can, ranging from wildlife to musicians. I have worked with numerous unsigned bands in the midlands, documenting there gigs, festivals and general gatherings. i develop my own black and white images, colour images can be ordered online.
