TISSOT Exclusive LIVE-NBA Finals Party - Sydney Overseas Passenger Terminal

With a select group of local sports and fashion identities and the events own HUGE satellite dish parked out back - TISSOT hosted an exclusive LIVE-NBA Finals Party at the Sydney Overseas Passenger Terminal Cargo Hall, on a perfect sunny autumn day. NBA and Australian Boomers stars Isaac Humphries and Sterling Brown did a pre-game warm up interview; shot goals in a mid game free throw comp as entertainment against Josh Dugan of the Cronulla Sharks and Lachie Whitfield of the GWS GIANTS. There was American themed food; Burgers, Tacos, Caesar salad, Nachos, all of which was rather good; washed down with beer, water or wine.. Or a coffee; which was how I started out the day..

Ante Badzim - Middle Beauty at VANDAL

Thursday afternoon I rang my friend Rod and asked him if he would like to come along to an exhibition of pictures taken in the Middle East. Now Rod often seems-to-be flying around the world shooting historic Muslim Architecture with a large format film camera - so no surprise, he said 'I'll see you there'. Of course who hasn't been seduced by the idea of travelling and seeing the ancient architecture of these sun drenched lands? Unfortunately I've only managed a transfer at Dubai airport so I needed to be doing my tour by proxy.. I was looking forward to seeing Ante Badzim's exhibition Middle Beauty.

The exhibition presents exotic, sparsely peopled landscapes, traditional Middle Eastern cityscapes, Muslim architectural interior spaces and even a camelscape.. All in beautifully rendered, muted tones with the occasional colour splash or a deeper contrast. It's all exactly what you might hope to find as a traveller; but without the prerequisite photography skills, I suspect mere mortals might try to find and fail. Which makes this show a must visit for me. One of my favourite shots was the goat picture Ante is standing in front of above. Windswept, tranquil, beautiful, natural, everything just right. Ante does a great job of blending the varied elements of the Middle East, landscape, towns, structures, history into a glorious journey of photography and light. Myself, my mate Rod, and it seems everyone else enjoyed the show too. On until the 7th of June - VANDAL 16-30 Vine St. Redfern, Sydney.

Sammie at AD Gallery - Paddington

Thanks to Head On and Fujifilm Australia; for the next few weeks I will be running around with the X-100F camera with the fixed 23mm lens - I've long thought this would be the MAGIC Street Fashion Sydney set up.. And if tonight is anything to go by I think it is! Stay tuned - Just testing. Thanks Sammie at AD Gallery tonight - Looking like P-Di right out of 1985! Or some such. LOVE that Fuji! Love this shot!
