A large picture of my head!

So, Who Am I?

In case you missed it, I am Jonathan Bourke. I aspire to be a pho­tog­ra­pher, fail mis­er­ably at being an occa­sional blog­ger, and get paid as a full­time IT guy. I am cur­rently based in Syd­ney, Aus­tralia, but I am orig­i­nally from Lim­er­ick in Ire­land (home of Mun­ster Rugby! Go on the leg­ends!). My love of travel has brought me to over 115 cities in 26 coun­tries, and I hope that will be reflected in some of my photography.

Why Did I Start This Website?

Because no one else would lis­ten to me! Seri­ously, I started this web­site as a show­case for my pho­tog­ra­phy, some­thing to focus the mind, and even­tu­ally a small source of income to help pay for my expen­sive gear habit.

What Will I Be Discussing?

You can expect to see a num­ber of gal­leries of images from some of my favourite places around the world, some dis­cus­sion of my tech­niques, and equip­ment, and hope­fully some rel­e­vant links to inter­est­ing pho­tog­ra­phy related tools, sites, and articles.

Any­thing Else?

It is the one thing that I am con­tin­u­ally asked by friends and fam­ily. There are any num­ber of buy­ers guides on the web, but I will dis­till them to what I believe are good rec­om­men­da­tions for total begin­ners, improvers, and big spenders.

And Finally…

I am also an IT pro­fes­sional, so check out my skills on my Cur­ricu­lum Vitae.
