A photo in Playboy magazine!

Yes, but it’s not the type of photo one might associate with that magazine. Yonks ago while on a road trip with a couple of other Aussies, I noticed a sign advertising a brothel called the “Shady Lady Ranch”. I was able to quickly snap a photo of the sign as we flew past it (I’m still using that 200mm zoom lens, I love it), posted it up online and never thought of it again. I was contacted by Playboy magazine for permission to use the photo in an article on the ranch. I never did receive the free copy of the magazine I requested, but I was able to track down the Oct 2009 issue which had the article, shown below.

The original image is here.

Wedding Photos!

I have created a Flickr collection containing photos from each of our wedding events. These are the full-size versions of the photos, much better for printing than their counterparts floating around on Facebook.

Visiting Key West

My parents have arrived back safely in Oz after their trip over here for the wedding (I’ll post another update about that later tonight), but before they left we took them to see Key West. Although we didn’t get to see the ideal sunset at Mallory Square because it was too cloudy, we did get to see some awesomely massive bubbles, and a nice gimmick where the dog would go around collecting tip money. The next night at Bahia Honda state park we watched the sun set in a completely cloudless sky. Here are some photos, the whole set is here.

I’m on a boat!

Well, I *was* on a boat. A few days before the wedding we had the opportunity to go on a boat around the bay of Miami with my family, courtesy of friends of Adriana’s parents. It was awesome.

The full set (including a few photos from Wet Willie’s beforehand) is here.

Here are some sample photos from the ride:
