I’m working tonight on the Getty Images London Picture Desk. Big night with the 2010 Brit Awards and the two huge Champion’s League matches; Manchester United v AC Milan, and Lyon v Real Madrid.

As the numbers on the distance marker on the Dukes Highway to Adelaide tumbles the reality of my departure is slowly absorbed. That and the fabulous little countdown widget on my mac which indicates hours rather than days till I get on Qantas flight QF97 to Hong Kong.
I’ve been working as a professional editorial photographer for a relatively short time; five years, but in that time I’ve had an exhilarating career, covering The Ashes cricket, AFL Grand Finals, PGA Golf, Federal Elections, ATP Tennis, music festivals, motor racing, Asian Champions …

Life has been pretty hectic lately, so I’ve been neglecting my blogging responsibilities!
I’ll work backwards from this week as it might help me keep track, but it includes football, football, football and some football!

I spent yesterday in Steel City; Whyalla, in South Australia.

Port Adelaide FC are spending a few days up there getting involved with local football teams, schools, and the greater community.
