I’m currently studying a class on Narrative Photography at ICP – essentially, Narrative Photography that tells a story and begs the viewer to contemplate on the meaning behind the shot. The aim is to provoke imagination where the storyline is open ended and interpretation belongs each viewer individually.
Each week we are given assignments to do for the next class the following week The first assignment I’ve been tasked with is to create a print that references a film. See if you can guess the films I’ve referenced.

After a 22hr flight, I’m back in NYC. Jetlagged and with 3hrs sleep I caught up with some friends at the Aussie Bar Sunburnt Cow where my mate Jeremy was working.

A group of us Aussie and American orphans spent the Christmas break in a very cosy house up in the Hamptons. It was amazing to have a White (ish) Christmas, to breath fresh air, to be surrounded in open space, to see reindeers and to be able to spend Christmas with a close group of friends – Priceless.

Tuesday night. Met up with some friends, Carini and Cass, from Syd at a BBQ in Brooklyn. So nice to be at a Bar-B. I think its the first proper one I’ve had since arriving in NYC. Miss it.

Tonight I caught up with my old mate Phil who was in town. We went to DBGB – Renowned French Chef Daniel Boulud’s newest restaurant in Downtown Manhattan. With 14 types of sausages (ingredients included: pigs head, trotter and tripe), hot dogs and escargots the menu was pretty interesting to say the least. We had ‘The Frenchie’ which was a burger made from confit pork belly – simply scrumptious. Although I don’t think it beats my local favourite, the short rib burger at Spitzers.

One of my closet friends here is Jeremy – he is my Aussie drinking buddy, we go on benders and just talk crap to each other till all hours. He is kinda like my home away from home. Anyway this post is a story about how Jeremy quit his job at Citibank (no he was not one of the 50,000 retrenched, yes he actually quit) and is now in Kenya doing aid work for the next 3 months. You can read more about it and follow his adventures here. Please also donate here to his cause. These are shots I took at his farewell. Bit of a bummer I didn’t actually take a photo of him. I will miss him and now have to find a new drinking buddy to listen to my banter.
