The photographs are taken with one of the cameras from my small but expanding collection; new pics are probably taken using a Sony F707.

When I want to go analog I usually pull out the ColourSplash. I've recently borrowed both a Holga and a Lomo LC-A from a friend, so there should be some lomo-fied photos coming soon.

Older photographs are likely snapped with my sister’s Olympus MJU 300.


This site is lovingly built by hand on a Mac (a MacBook to be exact).

Photos are auto-magically pulled from Flickr using the wonderful phpFlickr (a PHP wrapper for the Flickr API). Tumblelog content is handled via the kick-ass Tumblr; and it’s all pulled together using some custom stuff written with the help of CodeIgniter.

xHTML & CSS should validate. Hosting is taken care of by the kids at Dreamhost.
