My photographs concentrate on the light, lines, colour, shape and form found in nature…… from bushland to beaches, even my own backyard.
I hope to surprise and intrigue the viewer with my work and explore the notion that beauty exists everywhere…in the right light!

Absolutely stunning! I adore the colors. ^^
beautifully done!
I find it’s a vintage beauty.
I’ve tried TtV, the cheats way (inPS) , but I’m keen to try with one of these old cameras. Off to ebay I go to see if I can pick one up. Love the idea. Is this a Robinia? Love the angle that you’ve used.. You would have been lying on your back to take this. Well done.
Hi Lorraine, you should be able to find something on ebay. I picked up my Argoflex for $6 (from the US). Digital TTV’s are a lot easier to produce but I don’t think you can beat the authentic vintage/aged quality of the real thing. It is very fiddly, takes a lot of patience and coordination but it’s defintely worth it. I think this is a Robinia, it’s a huge tree (I actually have 2 of them in my back yard). One has pink flowers one has white. The pink one is just divine, I look forward to it flowering every year (although I’m sure it gives me hayfever). I didn’t have to get down low, just cranked my neck looking up!
