I headed off to the Altona lookout — one of my favourite places in Melbourne. What a view of the storm.

I timed it to see the full moon rise. I was expecting it to rise over the Brighton area, and was astounded to see this. You can see the storm creeping into the frame:

I left before the 21:15 fireworks over Melbourne because it started raining. And it rained and rained and rained.

By the time New Years came around, there were fireworks going off everywhere. I climbed onto the roof and everywhere I looked there were fireworks. It was blowing a gail, raining, and fireworks in a 360° view. Lightning was lighting up the sky and thunder was crashing around everywhere.

What a performance! What a fantastic way to see in the new year.

Happy New TwennyTen!

Melbourne Contact Juggler. Perfect for Roving, Festivals, and the Stage.

Skull. Aussie tough guy. Ballet master. Contact Juggler extraordinare.

Ballet Skull leaves every audience wanting more.

A fine stage act where Skull takes ballet to the next level. With leopard-like agility and Swan-like elegance, Skull leaps across the stage whilst rolling magical crystal balls around his body. Bordering on ridiculous. This act is most certainly a HUGE crowd pleaser.

With those big hairy legs, it’s no wonder the ladies can’t keep their eyes off him.

Perfect for: Roving, Stage Act, Sporting events, and Street Parades.

Skull. Aussie Larrikin. BMX trickster.

A fair-dinkum typical real Aussie bloke.

A crowd favourite, Skull talks the universal language of funny.

The kids love his BMX stunts. The Mums love his muscly hairy legs. That Dads love talking to a real bloke about power tools and the footy.

Skull is an extremely watch-able and like-able Aussie Larrikin who is phenominally good at riding a bicycle. Just ask Jessica (8), Thomas (6), Daniel (13), and Sharon (34).

Who’d have thought a mullet would be so popular?

Three teens flee the crash site.

They came crashing around the corner, out of control, and slammed into a water mains. The resulting geyser could be seen from hundreds of metres away and was at least forty metres high.

This is my favourite shot out of the whole portrait shoot.. I like how the older son is looking away and happy, the young son is on his Dad’s knee and also not looking at the camera. And I like the very realistic expression Dad has.

To me this photo comes across as very natural and very realistic. And of course, that magnificent view of Melbourne. Wow.

I know that the horizon is crooked. I have straightened it a few times, but I find that each time I do this I always undo the changes. It seems to lose a quality and feels quite flat. But that’s just my opinion.

I also really like this shot. They have such an amazing entrance to their unit.
