Having discovered it was once a blog - I hurriedly cranked up the laptop to see what i was hoping would be a unique and thought provoking offering. Instead, I am sorry to say I was spectacularly diasppointed. There is so much of Randwick that was ommitted and all i saw was an attempt to be wanky. Sadly, i don't think you even achieved that. shots without meaning and depth, and mindless blogging. if this is what your book is like, I will steer clear of it. What I am most saddened by is, that you clearly have talent but it is not reflected in these works. You might dismiss this a bile but i just wanted to relay to you what i witnessed was someone not being true to themselves and photographing inanely. Perhaps you are part of the y generation and this is the way things will be. I hope you're not - that would be the worst insult one could foist upon another, nay actually a try hard gen y is probably worse. i am sorry about this but i don't think your friends who have posted here are doing you any favours. I wish you all the best.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-224835141360424669.post-52287787654971908582010-04-08T22:02:35.868+10:002010-04-08T22:02:35.868+10:00Anomie - Sorry to hear you're not loving your ...Anomie - Sorry to hear you're not loving your present place of residence - but maybe there's beauty there too?

As I just Tweeted, it helped that there just happened to be an eye-poppingly colourful world's first event taking place in the suburb - serendipity at work (again - it's happened quite a few times on this project when I've stumbled upon a highly entertaining and photogenic event in my suburb of the week - very lucky).<br /><br />Louise52suburbshttp://www.52suburbs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-224835141360424669.post-20959319874536737832010-03-02T10:23:11.851+11:002010-03-02T10:23:11.851+11:00Better than ever.
