This post hasn’t been written for you the reader, but for me the author. I’m writing this to remember, as I have been told that “in 3 to 6 months it will all feel like a dream…”. **WARNING: Some readers may find some of the content/photos disturbing.** Here’s the TL;DR: This August (2014) and September […]

Today I have decided to disable comments on seriocomic.com. That is, no new comments will be accepted on new or old posts. Older existing comments will remain. I have toyed with this idea for some time, others have previously considered whether or not to do the same. What triggered my recent decision was reading Khoi […]

At the end of 2002, after a couple of years dabbling on the internet (beginning with Yahoo! GeoCities in 1999), I wanted to retire my old domain name ten-zero.net (for obvious/not-so-obvious reasons) and move to a single-word dot com. I practically went through half the dictionary looking for a relatable word that was available and […]

For the last three years, i’ve published my top 10 photos that I took during the year (see Top-Ten 2009, Top-Ten 2010 and Top-Ten 2011), however with a number of new changes in my personal life, i’ve only managed to publish 47 photos in 2012 so I have had to reduce this year’s list to […]

In the tradition of the last two years (see Top-Ten 2009, Top-Ten 2010), i’m attempting to round up my top-10 favorite images that were published during the year. This year was dominated by travel photos from Belgium and France, and then New Zealand.

So here I am, a few days after turning 40, and having reached the end of the 101 things in 1001 days project I set for myself back in February 2009. Looking back, I can observe a couple of key drivers about my decision to set myself these goals:

Following on from last year’s review, I thought I’d end 2010 with a look back at my top-10 favorite images that were published during the year. This year was a less-productive one in terms of the number of photos published (111 to be precise, compared to the 213 in 2008), but interestingly all of the […]

Welcome to the 1000th post (including photos) here on seriocomic! One thing I was certain of when I started my ‘1001 things to do in 101 days’ project was that life was bound to throw some distractions, opportunities, pitfalls and other things that life tends to do. So I am just over 600 days down […]

It’s been 417 days since I started my Project 101, approximately 300 days since my last update here on the Rhetoric blog. Pretty poor really. It’s fair to say that I’m not as far along with completing the task list as I’d like to be, but also I feel that I have achieved a lot […]

I probably would have liked to get this done a little closer to the beginning of the year, but it wasn’t until I saw this post on Digital Photography School that I thought I better do something, so here we go:

So it’s been 115 days since I started my Project 101 and I thought it a good idea to write some notes and observations about progress to date (actually my ulterior motive was to write a Rhetoric post because I realised that was meant to write one once a month). My summary of progress so […]

You know when you have nothing better to do (or want to avoid the things you need to do) when you spend all your time watching the coverage (including the “Fair and Balanced” Fox News) of the U.S. Presidential race, especially when you don’t even live in the country! Being in the field that I […]

Well, it would be fair to say that the re-introduction of the Rhetoric Blog into this site has been less than smooth. If you have been looking at the site over the last week, you will have noticed that the focus has gone back to the photoblog, at least for the main page. This is […]

Happy New Year! And with it, the return (after more than 2 years) of the seriocomic rhetoric – where I get to try and form some semi-coherent sense out of what is tumbling though my brain and lay it out for the world to laugh at… More and more this last year I have felt […]
