/ “The Centre of Your Soul is part of the Abstract Collection..look closely and the brush strokes will seem to coalesce into the imagery expressed in the poem... / I started to create the work with the poem running through my head, and as the brush moved across the paper, the abstract image emerged at the same time as the water, garden, and river made their presence known. / It was exactly as I wanted it to be…a feeling of great depth, a submergence of self, and surrender to the soul. Watercolour and Watercolour mediums on Arches Not Paper… There is a quiet water / In the center of your soul, / Where a son or daughter / Can be taught what no man knows. There’s a fragrant garden / In the center of your soul, / Where the weak can harden / And a narrow mind can grow. There’s a rolling river / In the center of your soul, / An eternal giver / With a rich and endless flow. There’s a land of muses / In the center of your soul, / Where the rich are losers / and the poor are free to go. So remain with me, then, / To pursue another goal / And to find your freedom / In the center of your soul.. J. Kavanaugh
I spent the afternoon at Brighton Beach, in Adelaide, and a couple had left this boat sitting next to the Jetty. Worked out nicely for me! Nikon D200 – 18-200mm / 1/350th sec @ f/5.6 / ISO 100

Does anyone know where to buy second had camera gear in sydney (canon). I think we should start up a swap and sell on red bubble so if we want to see our camera gear, upgrade or change brands it makes it easier for us. What r ur thoughts example I have a canon 450D I am wanting to sell a 100 – 300 zoom and looking to buy a macro (not sure what macro yet)
did everyone know that if you add a framed photo in the discription of a photo that it can be saved as a jpg just a note coz i didnt know anf thought i should share incase other didnt dave

Is it a compliment when you have other photographers copying your work right down to exposure time, I know it is a fine line between saying that a piece of work is yours and the ideas of a fellow photographer may be same or almost the same. Canon 5 Entries
This group is for you.. I thought of it because I love you and all that you do… and for that reason and that reason alone it must be destiny that you join this group and become a distant lover suffocating in riches and fame for being published in the exclusively themed ‘Calendars R Us’... you guessed it… calendars!
What does all this mean? It means I love you as much as you love the thought of me loving you… and it also means that you get published in a calendar or two… or three… or four… providing you enter and win the challenges we throw at you… because that’s what love is all about… calendars and stuff.
Each challenge has 12 winners… one month each… it’s a new way of loving where you get the best of me just as I get the best of you for a whole month… and then I leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy lying in the gutter staring at the stars reminiscing of the good times we had… elation will turn to despair as you enter another challenge just to feel the warmth of my beating heart on your captured soul… a soul for the world to share.
Head over heals in Hawaii… romantic getaway to France… shopping for shoes in Italy… shaking your booty in Brazil… searching for something in Kenya… debauchery in the land downunder… slipping and sliding down the Swiss Alps… munching on a taco in Mexico… ... ...
So I hope you get the picture by now… if not then the get down and dirty of it all is that we hold challenges on topics that you may or may not love… the top 12 entrants after voting get published in that particularly themed calendar… we sell them on the ‘Calendars R Us’ profile… you get worldly Calendar fame… and your share of the profit with all winners… past… present… and future… capiche!
You as the artist keep the rights to the image… you agree to the non-exclusive license for ‘Calendars R Us’ to use your image in the particular calendar that you won the rights to feature in… and any sales that are made work on a profit share system that will put money back into your pocket… yes … I do love you.
