Has been too long since a blog update. But don’t worry I am still about keeping busy and lurking in the shadows…
Working on some exciting things too and hope to have an update on that real soon!

Well wedding season is rapidly approaching and it is great getting your enquiries for Wedding Photography. It is going to be a busy one I feel and I am really looking forward to the summer. I have some new packages and offers on the way which I am very excited about so if you are planning your wedding in Hobart, or anywhere in Tasmania soon, get in touch so we can book you in!
On a different note, I thought I might put up a few images from a trip into Tasmania’s south west I made a couple of months ago with good photographer friends Andrew Skegg and Alex Wise.
Bushy Park
Westerway Station had a very nostalgic feel about it.
An old railway signpost. I guess this means 49 miles to Hobart?
This old abandoned property is around the back of Maydeena.
And of course we stopped at Mt Field National Park. The shot of Russell Falls particularly hard to grab due to the wind spraying my lens with a fine mist which was visible in most of the shots I took of the falls.
The South West is only a short drive from Hobart and very very worth it. There is lots of ecotourism planned for the Maydeena area, not to mention the National Park, lakes, mountains, and little townships. Spend a day or a weekend and explore!

Well it has been super busy in the world of Nigel Honey Photos and I have a few things to blog, and some are actually going back a little while now partly because I have been slack, and other things have had to go to print before I blogged them. Anyhow… Tonight Mel, Lucas and I headed to “The Flight of the Snow Petrels” Children’s Parade, part of the Antarctic Midwinter Festival.
A large procession of drummers, and people with large penguin shaped lanterns left the wharf near the School of Arts, in Hunter St, and headed around to the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, where those that got there early enough could see some fire twirling and fire eating. It was a bit of a battle to get through the crowd to get a few shots, but I got there and thanks to the low light ability of the Canon 5D MarkII I grabbed a couple of shots and got out of the way of the crowd I had pushed through to get to the front of.
After this, the show moved into the courtyard at the museum but we could not stay as the large animal costumes were scaring Lucas. Was certainly a different way to spend a Friday evening.

Many of you will know that I am a coffee lover, coffee geek even. I have spent the last year or so trying various coffee varieties from different roasters both locally here in Tasmania, and from interstate. I have found some good stuff, but recently I was put onto a company called Roast and Post by fellow OzPhotoWrap podcaster and freelance photographer Cameron Laird.
