Might take a minute to load, please be patient. More images at www.josephfeil.com. Would love to know your thoughts.

Who is Britney

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Met a very lovely Britney Spears impersonator which got me wondering what the difference is between the real Britney and impersonator Britney. Same look, same dance moves, same outfit, same lip-syncing (oh actually the impersonator does sing!!)….

Melbourne secrets

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Head up to the eighth floor in the Nicholas building in Melbourne’s CBD and you’ll find yourself transported in a lift unlike any other in Melbourne. No sterile steel and glass, instead trees, stuffed birds, photos, disco balls and other wonderful decorative items belonging to the lift attendants Dimitri and Joan.
That’s right, lift attendants – people who take you up and down in the lift. It’s like finding something rare, thought to be extinct..,,

I discovered this gem a few years back when photographing an anti workplace relations protest. Looking for an aerial view of the big crowd I wandered in and came across Joan who kindly took me up onto the roof and the result was this pic taken 15th November 2005.
