Tyroga – A Human Equivalent

Today is my 36th birthday, crap! I’ve been on the earth in this form for 36 years, what have I done with it? Well if I’m honest not as much as I had hoped. If I’m even more honest, while at times I cringe when I think of all the things I wanted but haven’t [...]

I wonder if it’s real? I don’t really think I suffer from it. But I do feel that my older brother was afforded more choices than the rest of us when we were kids. Not to say I ever felt left out. Our parent supported us in what ever we wanted to do, where we [...]

After almost 5 years of David and I living in Melbourne we finally got a visit from my big brother Brian, his fiance Belinda and her son Rourke. Now the only family member not to visit is my little brother, Gregory. Brian’s visit has been pretty cool cause we’ve done a few things we hadn’t [...]

Yesterday, David, SueZ and Kathryn all went on a little road trip to the town of Castlemaine Victoria. it was a great day of happy snapping, lens swapping and all round fun.

Make Me a Supermodel, originally uploaded by tyroga. This morning we headed into the city after having a somewhat unsuccessful breakfast at Creme in Altona, which resulted in David not having breakfast. First the eggs came out, and while poached, were rock hard, his bacon was burnt and his english muffin wasn’t toasted, some eggs [...]

Today is David’s birthday, as the title would suggest, For me this is the 11th birthday I have had to share with him and I am both happy and greatful for the time he has spent with me. Hoping for many more years to come. We’re not super big on celebrating birthdays. Since leaving Sydney [...]
