Welcome to The Spore Trail

Welcome to my personal corner on the Web! I am Samuel Lison, and I am from Melbourne, Australia!

I created this website as my little corner to consolidate all my thoughts, opinions, art and words into one place that is owned and self-hosted by me.

I chose to move away from mainstream social media and creating my own domain and identity on the internet where I am free to say and express what I wish and how I wish.

On this website, I also share my photography journey, which includes photos I have imported and edited from RAW format into art, as well as sound recordings from my hiking adventures which I make available for you to download completely free, or, you can choose to pay what you feel my work is worth to you. All through Ko-Fi. Just visit the shop and browse!

I appreciate you visiting my corner, and look forward to some productive discussions.

  • @photoschmid.com I just looked at your website and your street photography - they look so good! That’s something I wish to learn and will probably try out here in Melbourne, Australia eventually once I build the confidence!

  • @photoschmid.com I think mostly luck, and I did have to crop in from my 600mm lens, as I was a little too far for my liking.

    I am still learning, so thank you for the comment. I do appreciate it :)
