Melbourne Spring Fashion Week (MSFW) 2008 - Girls Day Out

Decjuba Fashion Marquee at the Flemington Racecourse.

Managed to get a quick snap of Race 7 where jockey Michael Rodd took the winning spot. Congratulations.

It was my first time shooting at a race and my first time at the Flemington Racecourse so I didn't know what I was doing or where to go for a good shot (well I could have worked it out if I wasn't rushing to the next parade). This one was taken just outside the marqee... Checkout Mark Dadswell's much better pics here. Amazing job, Mark. This amateur got much to learn. :P

Everyone (models and guests alike) were all frogged up and looking great.

This girl below laughed so much I took several pics of her. Her laugh is contagious and lifts my spirit every time I look at her. I hope you feel the same too. Doh, I didn't get her name or number... Anyway, Thank you very much!




This is Amy Pearson from the UK performing. I killed rolls of film (not really because I shoot digital but you know what I mean) photographing her. Great hat/hatinator, dress, shoes, wonderful performance and very photogenic (aka pretty). She lives in Australia now according to wikipedia.

Go Amy!

Australian F1 Grand Prix

Just want to share with you a picture taken at the Australian Grand Prix on Friday, 14th March, 2008. Click on picture to view a bigger version. I love all those gravels in the air. I am sure this is a view not shared by the driver nor his team... Sorry for those dying to see pictures of pit girls. There were few on Friday at the general admission areas. Perhaps they were hidding in the corporate box with the rich and famous, enjoying air conditioning on what was a very hot 40 degress celsius day. I will post a pic I took at the Loreal Fashion Festival for your enjoyment. oops, did I say that? I mean for you professional comments.

Here is another one of my favorites. It is slightly cropped on the right to take out the post in the way...
