8th FEBRUARY 2018: Another fun part of our recent trip to Hawai'i was getting to visit multiple filming locations for the one and only 'Jurassic Park'. During a tour through Allerton Garden (on Kauai's south side) I got a chance to play my little rendition of the Jurassic Park theme right where they filmed a scene from the film (specifically this one). Enjoy!
4th FEBRUARY 2018: Well once again, it's been a while since I have posted here! The funny thing is - despite not having posted a single update during 2017 - it was one of the biggest years of my (and Mel's) life. We both turned 30. We purchased and moved into a home together. We, uh, got married? So yeah, a few things.
Will aim to share a few things regarding those events soon - but while it is all fresh in my head, I thought I'd best jump to it and share a few shots from our adventures in Hawai'i over te past three weeks!
In a nutshell, we spent one night on the island of Oahu before jetting over to Kauai for one week. We later headed back to Oahu by the end of the trip, managed to cover a lot of ground on both islands. Got to catch up with friends and cousins too! - James
26th JUNE 2016: Busy times! For just on a year now, we have been slowly developing a brand new logo, website and overall identity for an ultimate reasource covering all things Jurassic. This fun project was for fellows at Jurassic Outpost, previously known as JurassicWorld.org.
Along with this rebrand, we also looked at the refresh of the JurassicWorld.org podcast, now known as "InGeneral: The Jurassic Outpost Podcast" and the creation of Jurassic Forums - a place where Jurassic fans from all walks of life can converse and chat about the Jurassic Franchise. Good times!
4th JANUARY 2016: Happy New Year all! I thought I'd kick off the new year with a quick share of a site I've been working on for the past little while. A friend of mine (Josh Spencer) is a caricaturist and illustrator based in Sydney. Feel free to hit him up - his stuff is gold. joshspencer.com.au
22nd NOVEMBER 2015: I thought I'd share a few shots I snapped whilst checking out "The Art of the Brick: DC Superheroes" Exhibition by Lego artist Nathan Sawaya. It was a heap of fun! Get tickets from: https://maas.museum/event/the-art-of-the-brick-dc-comics/
16th NOVEMBER 2015: I headed in to the Enmore Theatre to see "The Darkness" on Friday night - it was indeed an amazing show. It was loud, fast and a heap of fun.
When I awoke on Saturday morning, I discovered that other fans of rock also ventured out on Friday evening - only to not come home. My thoughts are with those affected by the evil in Paris. My thoughts are also with those who didn't get the same coverage in other countries that have had awful events occur recently also - including Beirut, and the already war-torn Syria.
I have not yet changed my profile photo to have a flag overlay, nor will I in the future, as it would mean a new profile shot on a weekly basis. My thoughts are definitely with all who have lost their lives, but I feel shrouding our faces with flags only promotes the idea that we should all be taking sides in a world where we should be unifed. #TheDarkness #FindTheLight
13th SEPTEMBER 2015: I thought I'd quickly share my recent geek purchase - an official Rick Grimes Sheriff bag. As this bag appears to be one of the longest surviving members on this entire show, I had to buy it. Despite being some typical TV show merch, it's actually quite durable. Cause, you know, zombies.
18th AUGUST 2015: Managed to get away for a few days to continue Mel's birthday celebrations, cathing up with my brother in the process. The shots below are ones snapped during the trip (including a few from the Eureka Building, located south of the Melbourne CBD. Good times!
15th AUGUST 2015: We had a bit of birthday bash for Mel last night. Twas rad! Here are some shots:
19th JUNE 2015: Well, it has been quite an eventful and busy month. A quick breakdown: Helping to move house, Jurassic World, bush walking, bush drving, Jurassic World, drinking tea and JURASSIC WORLD. What a freaking fun film. Have only had two chances to see it so far but there is a strong chance Mel and I are seeing it again tomorrow. Updates to come!
