My Year, in Prattling and Photos
It's been a year since... last year. Ironically, it seems I've found myself a new tradition of getting sick during the New Year holidays. At least, this year (that is, this inter-year period remarkable for its shiny decorations in the streets and houses, and closed supermarkets and pretty much everything), I'm doubtlessly doing better: I've managed to come visit my friends in Germany for Christmas (which I failed to do last year) and—after having some good quality time eating machanka, playing Munchkin and swinging machetes (the last one obviously crept into this checklist only for the sake of the phonological form)—I came back home via proverbial Deutche Bahn and probably less known Schweizerische Bundesbahnen, my body hosting a family of viruses, virions and who knows what other tiny critters somewhere inside my chest.

My Winter Wonderland
I love snow. I've come to learn that it's not a popular opinion among adults in my part of the world. And I do understand why. It causes a lot of problems: slick roads, downed power lines, roof damages. It also slows everything down. But I think I rather appreciate that part. I also think it's beautiful. I'm of the mindset that if it's going to be freezing outside it might as well look pretty.

The Pounds' Sterling
This is the last picture I took of my mom before the doctors started playing Mrs. Potato Head with her through brain surgeries and radiation that killed everything except, her. That’s why it's on my childless cat lady fridge as one of my favorite moments, even though we had many, many favorite moments since that picture.

Take a hike!
A few brief years ago our merry group set off to climb a ‘mountain’. Tabletop Mountain — in S.E. Queensland — is no Everest, but it was challenge enough for us. Spring’s searing sun was already high when we abandoned our cars at its base. As the track was neither marked nor maintained, we were grateful to a chirpy, fit teenager climbing with us. Having completed the hike on a previous occasion, she agilely scampered up the incline, calling encouragement down to us. We would have been clueless without her guidance.

The Magic of a Big Mound of Dirt. Runner-Up in Through the Lens Challenge.
My stomach is tight. I haven't done this in a while. I light my first joint and fiddle with my camera even though it's already set up the way I like it. I ask the model about her day. The model is a friend of a friend. Her skin glows. She walks with a sense of coiled and casual power. She both does and doesn't know how beautiful she is. Her hair falls in soft curls. The white, linen dress she chose for our photoshoot tangles with her ankles in the wind. We slow down and scope out our first location: a tree next to the old Hooters of our hometown downtown.

Why Andreas Szakacs Career Reflects the Value of Learning Film From the Ground Up
In film, audiences usually connect with what appears on screen. They remember a performance, a visual moment, a line of dialogue, or the emotional weight of a scene. What they don’t always see is the quieter foundation underneath all of it the years of practical work, set experience, observation, and discipline that often shape the people responsible for bringing those moments to life.

The Photograph
How Capturing Tragedy Changed How I See Everything THE CLICK THAT HAUNTS ME 📷 I have been a street photographer for twelve years and in that time I have taken approximately three hundred thousand photographs of strangers in public spaces capturing moments of beauty, humor, tenderness, and the ordinary poetry of human life in urban environments, and I have always believed that photography is an act of love, a way of saying I see you and this moment matters even though you will never know I noticed, but on a Tuesday afternoon in September I took a photograph that challenged everything I believed about my art and about the ethics of witnessing human suffering through a lens rather than engaging with it directly, and the image which I have never published and which exists only on a hard drive I keep in my closet has become the defining photograph of my career precisely because it will never be seen by anyone except me 😔

The Box of Forgotten Memories (And the Day I Finally Opened It) . AI-Generated.
It had been sitting in the corner of my bedroom for almost three years. A plain cardboard box, sealed with tape that had started peeling at the edges. I kept telling myself I'd deal with it later. Later never came, until one rainy Sunday afternoon when I had nowhere to be and nothing to avoid.

How Drone Tech is Transforming Mining Photography. AI-Generated.
Mining photography is no longer just about capturing images for reports or marketing. It has become a critical operational tool that supports measurement, inspection, planning, and compliance. The shift is driven by drone technology, which has introduced speed, precision, and repeatability into how mining environments are documented.

Video Formats and What You Should Know About Them
A while ago, I sent a video to someone and got the kind of reply that slows everything down: “It opens, but something feels off.” The clip looked fine on my computer, so I assumed the work was done. It turned out that exporting a file and delivering a file are two different things.

The Macro World of Prasanna Kumara Dissanayake A Digital Tribute to Nature
An Unseen World Exposed in the Uva Region Where as most photographers prefer the breathtaking views of large open spaces and many animal species, a photographer from Badulla, Prasanna Kumara Dissanayake, has taken a different approach. Prasanna is an environmentalist who feels the true nature of Sri Lankas biodiversity can be found in the small details found on plants. Prasanna can see the shapes and structure of flower petals, the crystallisation of pollen and the intricate details of the veins in leaves.

Leadership Lessons from the Big Screen: Films That Shaped My Perspective
Movies can teach us more about leadership than we often realize. They present challenges, dilemmas, and triumphs in ways that textbooks cannot. By observing characters navigate complex situations, we see leadership in action, with all its flaws and successes. Films allow us to explore the human side of leadership, showing how decisions, empathy, and courage affect outcomes. Some movies have the power to change how we think about leading others, offering lessons that stay with us long after the credits roll.
