For the past 3 days, I’ve been tenting in Toowoon Bay, at The Entrance. Now I say tenting, not camping, because according to my standards, there a few things required until you’re actually camping like a grown-up person.

For one, we were in a holiday park, there was a toilet block right next to us, there was people everywhere we turned and civilization was just on the other side of the park road. Secondly, there wasn’t much of a fire. I say ‘much’ because we did go down to the beach one night and have a little bon-fire. But all of our meals were cooked on the little gas stoves or barbeques in the park. For me it’s just not quite the same.

But really, the tenting was pretty good, the food was really nice, and the boat trip was plenty fun, we actually caught three eatable fish. The one downside was there were 3 pre-pubescent teenager with us. My brother and his two friends, with all of their crazy kiddie energy, such as the type which reared it’s ugly face at about 7am, when me and my friend were trying desperately to sleep.

Photography was pretty good though. My friend is also into photography, so we went around the beach and water’s edge, taking some interesting shots. I’ll be posting some of it soon. However, the thing which most annoyed me was the lack of my new 50mm f/1.8 lens. I was really hoping on Thursday afternoon, right before the Easter public holiday, that it would arrive. But sadness ensued when I arrived home with no package sitting on my desk.

Nevertheless, it was waiting for me on my return home, and this afternoon was lots of fun, as I fiddled around with it. It works amazingly well for portraits with a crazy low depth of field.

So overall, it’s been a pretty eventful couple of days. I’m really tired, addicted to coffee and my room needs a massive clean up.

Goodnight.
