Looking for a reprieve from the winter months? Come to Freycinet in August to warm you up with inspiration from other like-minded photographers. I am giving a seminar for the AIPP at the gorgeous Freycinet Lodge and will be speaking about Lightroom 3, infrared photography and how to self-publish.

Tom Putt and I have just finished putting the finishing touches to his new workshop website – you should check it out. We have some old favourites and some new locations, Cradle Mountain and Freycinet are both coming up

With almost 2000 downloads in total – the iPhone Apps I have developed are going crazy! Most of them are free and the rest are cheaper than a cup of coffee. The Seaweed – Art meets science App even includes the exact GPS co-ordinates and shows you on a map where the image was captured! Check it out here.

If you are in Hobart during Science Week (14 – 22 August 2010) you might be able to view my latest exhibition. As I mentioned a couple of newsletters back, I received some funding to become part of Tasmania's Science Week activities

Our oceans and waterways are teeming with marine algae, commonly known as seaweed, it is the essence of life in an underwater world. This exhibition illustrates the beauty of an environment that most people will never see. Come on a journey with award winning photographer Ian Wallace, dive into another place, a surreal world of fantasy, a world where art meets science.

I have done it - I have launched my first iPhone App.

It's part of a long term project and just a stepping stone towards a much more comprehensive application I have in the pipeline. Australian Wildlife is an App for the iPhone that introduces children (or adults) to the sights and sounds of Australian wildlife. It also contains fascinating facts and can be used as an educational tool.

Following the successful Cradle Mountain Workshop, Tom and I adventured on to Freycinet to scope it out for workshop potential - I think it took us about 10 minutes to figure out that it was a "no brainer!" it’s a fantastic place for a workshop!

This week I returned from another successful Cradle Mountain workshop.

The weather was very variable - as it often is at Cradle, but that did not stop us. Tom Putt (www.tomputt.com) and myself led eight participants around the national park capturing amazing natural beauty in amazing natural weather!
