Just a quick little series for fun … when not busy working I like to photograph food and the day to day happenings in the kitchen …

Hope of www.hopealexander.com had popped over for a cuppa this afternoon and we went outside (just before the big storm hit) to size up her poster for fun. She’s not used to seeing herself “bigger than ben hur” at approximately 47 x 40 inches Just as well it was laminated! It started raining cats and dogs shortly after … it was laminated for the flight to Melbourne, but turns out the weather was far worse in Perth!

Ohh this was very exciting, but I couldn’t post until the conference was finished! Back late June, Hope Alexander Master Public Health of www.hopealexander.com booked me for a portrait session as part of a poster presentation for the “2011 Consumers Reforming Health Conference”. This was the inaugural international conference for community engagement in health care, in Melbourne, July 2011.  The conference photographic poster presentation in its finished state, was 1 x 1.2 metres.

Have you ever visited the doctor’s surgery and seen all those glossy posters up on the wall with healthy, vibrant and confident looking professional health care providers? Given the title of Hope’s poster presentation, “Yes, consumers can … the expert patient lives on!” I thought I would be cheeky, and run with that concept, except have the “patient” playing the part of the healthy, vibrant and confident looking health professional! The feedback was, that it worked very well!

It’s raining and cold and … everyone needs comfort food some time.
