We have moved!

Kitty & Buck has packed up and moved to Tokyo, Japan.... AND.... A shiny new blog, over at Kitty & Buck - Please come on over and join the party, you're invited! This space will no longer be updated.

Oh, hi. It's been a while!

Hello, hello.

How can I apologise for this lapse in blogging that stretches (almost) into the forgettable past? I have no intention of ending this blog for good! After a very extended break, I'm hoping to get this space freshened up and rolling along again soon. I'll post a proper update when that happens, but until then, you can follow my adventures in my new home of Tokyo over on Instagram @kittyandbuck.

I've also been dipping my toe in Snapchat (username kittyandbuck), so if you want fleeting moving images, that's the place to go.

Thanks so much for your kind emails and hello's in other parts of the web. I've missed you and I can't wait to get blogging again just as soon as I straighten this space out!

I've Been Missing You

Long time no see! It's probably time I wrote a quick post explaining my absence. You may have heard me mention my intense workload over the past 3 months or so. Unfortunately, as these things do, it has caught up with me and I've been very unwell for the past couple of weeks. I'll be starting my new contract (a week late!) tomorrow, which involves a lot of commuting on top of my work day. I'm still feeling under the weather, so while I get settled with my next project, and heal my poor abused body, things will probably be quiet around here for a little while yet.

I do miss my regular posting and conversations with you, and I'm hoping this break will be short-lived.

Weekend Links v.20

Well, it's weekend links on a Monday - better late than never I suppose :)

I feel like everyone must have seen Walter the dog running with wild abandon by now, but if you missed it, this video will make you smile (and wish you were a dog)

There's a new superhero on the streets of Japan, but instead of fighting crime, he's fighting trash.

This park in Austria turns into a lake in the summer!

Six tips for staying creative without colleagues

If you're ever stuck for a good book to read, maybe pick one off David Bowie's Top 100 Books list. I'm pretty sure anything you choose will be a winner.

And if you're going to read one of David Bowie's favourite books, you should probably do it wearing these incredible gold beatle boots.

I'm always on the lookout for new fonts, True North Font Pack contains a vintage inspired font and a pretty cursive script as well as a tonne of vector icons!

Any October birthdays out there? This is a pretty sweet birthday card!

How much longer until November? I can't wait to be here.

I made mini-fake-burgers awhile ago. I bet these taste better! Mini-burger cupcakes get in my belly.

Happy Monday! (or very early on Tuesday if you're in my time-zone)

Instagram Challenge | September Colour Announcement

To bring you up to speed, the Instagram challenge is designed to keep our photography flowing throughout the year, in the form of creating a nice collaborative rainbow. Each month will have a different colour theme. I'll announce a new colour monthly and then showcase my favourite shots on the blog at the end of the month.

If all goes according to plan, I think we'll be able to paint a beautiful spectrum on Instagram through the year, which you can watch unfold by searching the hashtag #kittyandbuckcolor

I'm so excited for September, mostly because I got to photograph a banana... It's spring here in Sydney and I've already been spotting yellow blooms around the place. Whether it's spring or autumn where you are, I'm sure you can find pops of yellow all around you. Share your best finds on Instagram using the hashtag #kittyandbuckcolor and add your work to our feed.

If you'd like to spread the word, feel free to grab this button to share on your blog. You can resize it to fit your sidebar by changing the width and height values in the code when you copy it to your blog's sidebar. (just keep them the same so it stays square!)
