This week's instalment is from Kingston Park on Kaurna country. I was there this week with family at the caravan park to scatter our ma's ashes on the beach.

We watched as she was washed out to sea. It was a sad occasion, we all had a cry, but it was cathartic to send her off on her final voyage as per her wishes.

Us siblings wear a pendant with some ashes inside, so she comes with us everywhere still (she does more exercise now than she was ever accustomed to 😅). Regardless, she is forever in our hearts, loved always.

This is self described "Gaysian empress of Sydney", Dyan Tai. I took this on behalf of Midsumma at the VIC Pride Street party a couple of weeks ago.

Here's my friend, Dean Arcuri, aka Frock Hudson at this year's Midsumma Festival Pride March in Naarm.

This is the last week of the festival and I've so far shot 7 events with another 2 to go, including VIC Pride on Sunday (here's hoping the rain decides to skip Fitzroy). I'm an exhausted and sore queer, but love what I do!

Below is one of the many talented drag queens of MOCO: Summer Break, which I had the pleasure of shooting for Midsumma Festival. Moco is a collective of First Nations drag artists in Naarm.

Today we have a quick mobile phone shot of a scratched smiley face engraved into a tram panel that I took today on the way home from my exercise physiologist appointment.

This is an image I took with a disposable camera a while back. My partner got the negs printed for Xmas. Whilst most are terrible and half didn't print, I like the grainy moodiness of this print. You can basically feel the chill of the day. What do you think?

Image description: A long white curved jetty with silver balustrades and a wooden seat. The day is almost cloudless but it was bitterly cold and windy.

Back in November, when I went out to West Desert hunting the #aurora I had no idea I had captured the lights in several images. I have some others that also have the lights. I intend to experiment with and will probably post them eventually, which I think show it better. But unedited, this is the most fun!

I'm just so excited to have accidentally discovered that I captured it, after all! 💜🌗🦄
