My beautiful old girl Queenie. / I think she deserves to feature on my 1st t-shirt. /
Yes, they are my feet and I’m relaxing on the beach watching the kids play in the water. I gave this image some texture and it reminds me of a very lazy, Aussie summer’s day at the beach.
By special request =) What’s with the world today?

Well what can I say – I do believe some days, and other days I just hope. The Tasmanian Tiger and his mates the Devils are fast becoming favourite subjects for me. It’s hard to resist creatures that have such a compelling back story – mystery, possible extinction, all contained in one little island biosphere.

Where’s the water gone There’s a rather sad phenomenon that’s plaguing our great land / And just like the wary gambler it’s about to play it’s hand. / All the signs have been quite evident and round now for a spell / But we’ve fobbed them off, ignored them all, as far as I can tell. From the times of early childhood when my family drove around / All the creeks were full of water and the bores were rather sound, / Sure enough the droughts they came and went but mate, I have to say / that our Nation’s running kind of dry, hard times are on the way. Hey I think we’ve done our dash old son ‘cause what is going on. / All our dams and bores are getting low and where’s the water gone. / We will have to make some changes and mate make them pretty fast, / as the water’s disappearing and it sure as hell won’t last. Though we’ve held bad hands in years gone by we’ve always lived in hope, / that the rains were somewhere in the deck and til then we would cope. / But the evidence is ominous and looking rather bleak / and we’d do well to consider all the havoc it could wreak. We need each and every one of us to play a vital role, / as we’re playing for high stakes here and there’s need for self-control. / All will have to change the lifestyles that they’ve been accustomed to / And we’ll have to play our hands right and seek out an Ace or two. Hey I think we’ve done our dash old son ‘cause what is going on. / All our dams are bores are getting low and where’s the water gone. / We will have to make some changes and mate make them pretty fast, / As the water’s disappearing and it sure as hell won’t last. © Bush Poet and Ballad Writer Merv Webster / ©2008 Globalphotos All rights reserved. / All photographs, text and images by Globalphotos are the exclusive property of Globalphotos – protected under Australian and international copyright laws. / These images may not be reproduced, copied or manipulated without written permission. / No use for Public Domain. / Use of any image for another photographic concept or illustration is a violation of copyright. / Shot taken outback South Australia / 5 layered image
My dog, Griffin – looking up into the sky as snow falls on him. I peeked out the second story window to take the picture.
After painting the Belly Dancing Goddess I wondered what an Aussie Goddess would look like… so… / She would have to be “Natural” relaxing on the beach and in a bikini and thongs. / “A love of Nature” symbolized by the green bikini morphing into ivy and a Sun Beatle( nick named smiley beatle :-) ) which actually landed in my garden when I was painting the goddess. / “Passionate and colourfull” symbolized by a rainbow instead of a Halo. / “A little Dangerous” ie; flames where wings would be, and the band aid on the leg from past scuffles and a tattoo, because she can!. / “Red hot flames rising on one side, the power of the ocean cooling the other. They converge at the top, harmonizing in a rainbow of wisdom, peacefull and balanced. Is she real or she a statue, one foot forward ready to go…

Featured Australian Wildlife 22/07/09 The koala is a small bear-like, tree-dwelling, herbivorous marsupial which averages about 9kg (20lb) in weight. Its fur is thick and usually ash grey with a tinge of brown in places. / / The koala gets its name from an ancient Aboriginal word meaning “no drink” because it receives over 90% of its hydration from the Eucalyptus leaves (also known as gum leaves) it eats, and only drinks when ill or times when there is not enough moisture in the leaves. ie during droughts etc. The koala is the only mammal, other than the Greater Glider and Ringtail Possum, which can survive on a diet of eucalyptus leaves. /
Took this the other morning..looking over the front fence into the mist and morning beams…
