Me.
WindySydney began as an online journal detailing my exit from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Since leaving the Mormon Church, I have come to the conclusion that religion does more harm than good. I have also become an atheist, looking for logic and reason instead of accepting things on faith.
I also blog about things going on in my life. I am learning photography, I have a severe addiction to diet coke, I am a proud vegetarian, and I have two of the cutest cats in the world. Life is officially an adventure without the magical fairy-tale ending. I plan on enjoying it.

I'll let you in on a secret...I have a thing for cats!!! That second pic is really really CUTE (ok..that doesn't sound Aussie Blokey huh!)...I wish I could get my photos out like that....any tips???

Hahaha, cats rock! I was never a cat person until I rescued Abbey Road from an abusive home. Now I love them.
The only tips I have are to take the photos when the cat is resting. When I try to take photos of Buddha Belly she tends to run away because she doesn't care for the flash... so I have to catch her at the right time. Things are much easier when they are sitting still and resting.
Another thing is to get close up. Tons of people take photos of their pets, but in some cases the animal is only a small part of the image. Scoot in and focus on part of the animals face or fur. It's more interesting.
Lastly, use natural light when you can. The photo of Abbey that you like was taken early in the Morning when the sun was shining into my apartment. The natural light looks amazing reflecting on things! Good luck Nicko!!
