Not from Today - 19th of April (3 photos)

in #photofeed5 years ago

This will be an irregular series of posts - in these posts I'm going to look back into my archive to see what photos I took this day in previous years

This 'Not from Today' but it is from the 19th of April

So this is a interesting one - the 19th of April is near my birthday so quite often I'm away on holiday this time of year - so today we have three shots from three different states of Australia

Let's start furthest away - The year in 2007 - I'm in Queensland with 'friend' to celebrate, I didn't know at the time that within 6 months we wouldn't be friends anyway. This day we were at Seaworld. I loved this shoot, it seemed very artistic to me at the time, the concept of the silhouettes against the blue aquarium, and what made it for me is the pose of the girl on the far right.

2016 and I'm spending a week in Tasmania with my lovely wife, who I can happily say still is. This is a observation centre on the top of Mount Wellington which overlooks Hobart, we had gone up there on a whim, and what a good whim it was as the views were amazing, complete with a sunset

2019 and I was home in Melbourne, I had just watched a video from Sean Tucker about street photography and this was one of the early attempts at the 'preserve your highlights' style which I really like, I think it suits the harsh light in Australia, and I love those near black shadows, but then again I guess I've been playing with light and shadows for 12 years now.

And that my friends was my life on the 19th of April but not from today
