Apollo
by Ivy IzzardἈπόλλων: Phoebus, of you even the swan sings with clear voice to the beating of his wings, as he alights upon the bank by the eddying river Peneus; and of you the sweet-tongued minstrel, holding his high-pitched lyre, always sings both first and last. / And so hail to you, lord! I seek your favor with my song. / Homeric Hymn to Apollo 21.1–5 More Olympians / / / /

Safe habour for yachts and boats at Apollo Bay. Taken at dusk with mauve tones and the Otway Ranges as a backdrop,Great Ocean Road Victoria. / I liked the way the foreground rocks could be used to lead the eye into the picture

This was for a study of fabric and how it relates to figure drawings, the transitions from one plane to the next. My professor basically tied up an Apollo statue. Could have some symbolism if wanted. An art work’s interpretation doesn’t have to stay true with the artist’s. This of course is in charcoal.

This image was created at the Apollo Bay Docks early in 2008, went here for a holiday just as I was getting into Photography. I went down to the docks just as a storm was rolling in and it made for some interesting weather conditions! This pic was created from one raw file. I changed the exposures in Lightroom and then merged 3 images using Photomatix, increased the blue and green saturation levels in Lightroom and added a bit of contrast. This is the result! This is my most viewed image on RedBubble Click here for my other images of Victoria

Taken at Apollo Bay early in the morning. I haven’t processed this one very much at all. A bit of noise reduction and some levels. It was the most amazingly vivid sunrise I have seen for some time. View more of my seascapes at: Landscapes and Seascapes

Golden Apollo, that thro’ heaven wide / Scatter’st the rays of light, and truth’s beams, / In lucent words my darkling verses dight, / And wash my earthy mind in thy clear streams, / That wisdom may descend in fairy dreams, / All while the jocund hours in thy train / Scatter their fancies at thy poet’s feet; / And when thou yields to night thy wide domain, / Let rays of truth enlight his sleeping brain. / For brutish Pan in vain might thee assay / With tinkling sounds to dash thy nervous verse, / Sound without sense; yet in his rude affray, / (For ignorance is Folly’s leasing nurse / And love of Folly needs none other’s curse) / Midas the praise hath gain’d of lengthen’d ears, / For which himself might deem him ne’er the worse / To sit in council with his modern peers, / And judge of tinkling rimes and elegances terse. Words by William Blake Painting using wax, inks, pigment and graphite / 100×42cm / Music / La tristesse des anges (The Sadness of the Angels)

Original Creation Date: June 14th, 2006 And as he materialized from the shadows of an immortal world, he knew that he would never be discovered. He knew their eyes would never pause. Draped in feathers, masked by guise, a god became a mere cruxshadow. Apollo became The Crane. Godlike Birds: / The Greek/Roman god Apollo was the god of the sun, the god of poets, and the leader of muses. And upon his visits among us he would disguise himself as a bird. / This is an ode to inspriation. This is a dedication to the muses that live within us. / Apollo is a direct representation of creativity, and as artists, Apollo is our god. Charcoal on 90lb. paper, 16” x 20”, freehand. / Model: Danone There’s a piece of my soul in the reflection of his eyes. I swear it. Original Sold: Port Alberni, British Columbia, Canada

Pastel on Colourfix sanded paper (burgundy) – 50cm x 35cm My first painting completed in 2009! Apollo Bay is a beautiful fishing village along the Great Ocean Road in Victoria. We spend a week there each year, and it is nearly time for us to head back there again. The harbour is really beautiful at dusk. I did a couple of colour sketches sitting on the edge of the harbour on this balmy summer evening, just as the lights were starting to come on. I also took some photos for later reference.

Pastel on Colourfix paper (burgundy) – 50cm x 35cm Another one straight from my easel to RedBubble. I’m not sure if it is quite finished yet! My husband thinks I should add some people (there are two in the far distance). I thought people would make it too ‘busy’ so I’m thinking about some gulls. This is the way it was while we were there – practically deserted. My son asked me to do a beach scene as a gift for his ‘Best Man’ (who loves the beach and the Great Ocean Road area). The wedding is on the 28th March so I have been stressing about getting it finished in time. I am well ahead!

With the global economy caught in the gravity of the financial crisis, it’s sad that programs like the Constellation Project will have a long wait before anything truly gets off the ground. / / NASA’s Constellation Project is set up to finish the International Space Station, retire the Shuttle Fleet and build a whole new fleet of space vehicles which will take us back to the Moon, then Mars and then the places beyond. / / But with Congressional limitations and funding cutbacks due to the financial crisis, as well as being stuck with a complicated and restrictive “go as you pay” finance structure it’s unlikely we’ll be seeing any groundbreaking manned space flights in the naughties. / / This image represents a fleeting memory of a childhood dream to see man explore our planets and then the stars beyond and it’s one of the few things as a child I looked up to America for. / / The universe is a big place and we’re yet to make it out of our solar system but without programs like the Constellation Project, man may never ever get to make another giant leap. / / DETAIL / / / /

Equipment used: / Nikon D70s / Sigma 10-20mm HSM f4-5.6 / Cokin Gradual ND2 Location: / Side, Antalya, Turkey Map: / Road Map , Terrain , Satellite Copyright: / © Brendan Schoon , All rights reserved. Background Information: / Side is one of the best-known classical sites in Turkey, and was an ancient harbour whose name meant pomegranate. Side is a resort town on the southern coast of Turkey, near the villages of Manavgat and Selimiye, 75 km from Antalya) in the province of Antalya. It is located on the eastern part of the Pamphylian coast, which lies about 20 km east of the mouth of the Eurymedon River. Alexander the Great occupied Side without a struggle in 333 BC. Alexander left only a single garrison behind to occupy the city. This occupation, in turn, introduced the people of Side to Hellenistic culture of the Greek Civilization, which flourished from the fourth century to the first century BC. After Alexander’s death, Side fell under the control of one of Alexander’s generals, Ptolemy I Soter, who declared himself king of Egypt in 305 BC. The Ptolemaic dynasty controlled Side until it was captured by the Seleucid Empire in the second century BC. Yet, despite these occupations, in the following years of the second century BC, Side managed to preserve some autonomy, grew prosperous, and became an important cultural center. Temple of Apollo /
