An image captured with my old trusty Minolta 7000 with a 55mm and 30secs using Fuji 35mm film. / Never thought I’d use this image except it fits the lyrics to a song i wrote a while back… / If I could attach an mp3 of the song, now that would be cool! If anyone knows how please let me know!! / Anyway, here are the lyrics… / Listen to the Song If silk be the fabric of the soul, / Then imagine how your fingers feel to my mind. / With lifestyles all about control, / Where on earth are we going to find the time to let our minds entwine? / I’ll try hard not to lose to most important thing to me, / Let it kindle like precious fire. / Yet just as I begin to feel like someone I used to know, / I also begin to tread the wire. / Angel come down to me. / I’m flying aimlessly, / Guide my landing gear. / Say it once without feeling and then rehearse it again. / A long time of recovery, / Never a truer word was said. / Take something good make it bad. / Take something happy and make it sad. / This is all a possibility. / Angel come down to me. / I’m flying aimlessly, / Guide my landing gear / Art Folders… / / Entire Portfolio / Born From This Earth – Series / Hearts At War / Vehicular works / Architecture / Travel / B&W Photography / Transitional Industrial Utopian Series / Abstract / Models and Fashion Photography
How did my fears start ~ In the News ~ Inflight ~ Is Fear of Flying common? Where is the nearest exit door?
For those who dont know what these lines are they are stars. / I set the camera on the B setting and leave the shutter open for upto 10 hrs. / As the earth rotates it gives you these lines.I do not recommend the use of digital cameras for taking startrails
A salute to my favourite INXS song “Johnson’s Aeroplane”. “From a small aeroplane, you can see the sea. Lots of blue, very deep blue”. This week I had the incredible luck of flying in a 4 seater plane and having my first try at aerial photography – great fun!! It was such a fantastic day and Perth was looking its best on a 27 degree spring day. Thanks heaps to Malcolm the pilot, Mum and Dad!! :))) For enquires about canvas prints, or photographic prints larger than Redbubble options, please contact me via bubblemail
This shot was taken from a pedestrian bridge over the thames. The flight path to heathrow that day was over the city, so every 90 seconds a plane would appear in shot …. very handy. Cropped and treated in photoshop.
A Cathay Pacific Airways Cargo 747-200 on right base for Runway 34 at Melbourne, about two seconds before the gear came down. A must for any flight junkie… you know who you are :-)
Four of the Red Arrows zooming into the great blue yonder above a white fluffy cloud, with red white and blue smoke contrails trailing behind. I only noticed this display happening late one Friday evening; taken from Perth, August 2007.

Is she saying hello or saying goodbye? This gorgeous blue eyed beauty has a well-crafted paper aeroplane circling her. Whether it’s about to land or about to take-off is anyone’s guess. This piece reminds me of all those teary airport hellos and farewells of my 20s! ..................♥ the fine print ♥…...............

Shot this at one of my most favourite places – Tucson, Arizona…. the barren landscape just speaks volumes to me and the discarded fighter jet engines prove the perfect antithesis to the landscape.
This is actually the backup ASI on a G1000-equipped Cessna 182. But whatever… it’s an airspeed indicator. It’s for “flight junkies” (aviation enthusiasts), obviously. Wear it proudly :-)
The McDonnell XF-85 Goblin was a parasite fighter – it was designed to be carried in the bomb bay of a B-36. It had no undercarriage and was hung from a hook which retracted into the nose of the Goblin. The extended range of the B-36 meant that it would be flying beyong the range of fighters that could defend it, so the idea was to carry a fighter onboard. America’s own ‘foo fighter’ first flew on 22 July 1948

I’d like to be able to say that when I was composing this shot I saw the plane taking off out of frame and worked out its trajectory would take it just over th e sun as it was rising, but I can’t :-(. Truth is I was so focussed on the rising sun I didn’t even notice the plane til I downloaded the shot and started working on it. So this is actually a tiny crop of the original landscape orientation I shot it in. One of those serendipitous moments you don’t even notice at the time. Taken from Bundeena Cliffs, Royal National Park just a few moments after Streaming to the Dawn. Another stumble upon going through the archives. Canon 30D / Tv: 1/15sec / Av: f/11 / ISO: 100
Featured in the Faux Vintage Fictions Group – Thank you / / Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 – August 26, 1974) (nicknamed “Lucky Lindy” and “The Lone Eagle”) was an American aviator, author, inventor and explorer. On May 20–21, 1927, Lindbergh emerged instantaneously from virtual obscurity to world fame as the result of his Orteig Prize-winning solo non-stop 33 hour flight from Roosevelt Field in New York City to Le Bourget Field in Paris in the single-seat, single-engine monoplane Spirit of St. Louis. Lindbergh, an Army reserve officer, was also awarded the nation’s highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his historic exploit. (Ref: Wikipedia)
Feeling dusty and slightly tippsy with neon embedded onto my eyeballs I leave Las Vegas…Promising myself to one day return.

She is a brave warrior, she just wanted to bring peace to the world. She kidnapped the dove symbolising Peace. / Olive came and stop the wars; as a giant girl she walked the globe in 2 hours and fought all the killing machines by squeezing them. After all, Olive is a corageous peacemaker. I liked her a lot. A white dove with an olive branch is the symbol of peace for part of the humanity.
