North Island – New Zealand :)
In 2003 I experienced a life changing event when I traveled to Tanna in Vanuatu in the Melanesian Islands of the Pacific Ocean with two friends. Tanna is populated by about 10,000 Ni Vans who mostly live in subsistence farming communities. Tourism infrastructure and foreign investment have been limited to less than 50% which has largely preserved their way of life from too much foreign influence. The last time foreigners descended on mass was in WWII when the American soldiers practically took over a few of the islands. This overwhelming influx of the modern world on a traditional culture permanently altered it when a number of cargo cults started up fashioning themselves on American military camps. Many Ni-Vans so overcome with the amazing technology and physical power of these soldiers decided being American must be pretty good so henceforth considered themselves adopted Americans. To show how American they were they rebuilt their villages in the style of the military camps, saluted the stars and strips and even made planes and jeeps out of bamboo. Mixed into this infatuation was aspects of ‘Kustom’ (native) religion and Christianity into a cult called the John Frum cult (short for ‘John from America’). Ever since WWII the John Frum followers have been waiting for the second coming of John Frum with his ship full of cargo for the faithful. Just before my trip the cult had become so troublesome that the army had been called in to disperse them. They did this by simply burning the village down so people would be forced to go home to their native villages (the village happened to be constructed on the side of an active volcano as well which didn’t impress the authorities much either). On their previous trip my two companions were invited to go and speak in the John Frum Village and meet their leader the prophet Fred a rare privilege for an outsider. I spent two weeks in Tanna climbed an active volcano and spent time getting to know the locals who kindly put us up in their village while we ministered to the local church. Two of the people I got to know the best were Jeremy a boy who took me under his wing and Willie an inspirationally spiritual man who was a church leader down there. I took this shot of my friends on the second last day I was there in the local river just below the village of Lonimilo. Having never been out of a western culture before experiencing village life, food, water (yuck), music (with no radio or TV the sound of acoustic guitars and singing were almost constantly in the background, yum) and living with such beautiful family oriented people profoundly effected my whole way of seeing the world. Jeremy and Willie’s smiles kind of sum the whole thing up. P.S. I don’t really see myself as a portrait/ people photographer but the bubble is such a great place to try out new things I thought I’d post it and see what people think. The shot was taken with my first ever SLR camera (a Canon EOS30 with Ilford Delta 100 b&w film) that I bought duty free on this trip. To get this shot I got into the river with Jeremy and Willie paranoid I would slip on the sloping bottom with my new baby, fortunately I kept my feet and got the shot, a precious memory. I’ve also been really inspired by Melinda Kerrs work too. To my great surprise this shot won the ‘B&W – Character – People Shots’ groups Indigenous People Competition in August 2008. It was also a finalist in the Black and White groups Emotion competition back in May 2008 and has somehow ended up on the home page three times.

A black and white pastel on black acid free paper of the beautiful, cascading Horseshoe Waterfalls, Australia. What delight we felt when we first discovered this. It was located at the end of our street where we used to live and was only a 5 minute walk, that took us to a peaceful place where we could forget the world for a while. It is still only a 10 minute drive away. Waterfalls are usually geological formations resulting from water, often in the form of a stream flowing over an erosion-resistant rock that forms a nickpoint or sudden break in elevation. Whatever the description waterfalls are a natural wonder and there are some breathtaking ones all over the world. The waterfall drops its sparkling veil / covering its rock face leaving slippery trails / twinkling drops of water bursting in the light / its beauty never ending even at night!

The day before Easter Sunday in Yosemite a cold front blew through. We got up and ate at the exclusive Ahwahnee Hotel and then meandered to the falls and saw this beautiful site.
Took this shot in Germany in the Neckartal near Heidelberg. There you’ll find the Margarethen-ravine which has some nice cascades. The sun was making some disco lights on this waterfall which looked really nice :-) regards, / Michael

Gibraltar Falls presents a scene, shrouded in mist, of these rugged falls, located to the south of Canberra near Namadgi National Park. Behind the scenes / It was a cold day, one of the coldest to hit Canberra in recent times and I wanted to get out for a bit after finishing my final exam for the semester. I knew that near zero temperatures and lots of mist would be conducive to some ghostly landscapes of the countryside. Braving the icy roads and very limited visibility, I stopped in at the falls to capture this shot as the temperature fell below freezing. The motion of the water was captured using a B+W Schneider 1000x ND filter and 30sec shutter speed. / Canon 1Ds mkIII | EF 24-105mm Artwork / Gibraltar Falls is a striking and sophisticated work, ideal for the home, office or as a gift. Enjoy this magical scene as a canvas or fine quality print. © 2009 A Spence. All Rights Reserved

This is another view of the spill way in black and white to heighten the details. As I stated before, out with my friend and fellow Redbubbler Jason Connolly photographing the Derwent reservoir in the Peak District of Deerbyshire, England, we spent quite a while photographing Derwent dam and the surrounding area. We also spotted this lovely out flow of water into the Derwent reservoir. This water comes from the Ashop river which flows through Snake Valley. A portion of the river was diverted to flow through the mountain to the other side through this water way tunnel and out into the Derwent. There is a dam in the Ashop, but it only stand 10 ft., but is still used to allow water to continue to flow into the reservoir, even though the river is allowed to also run into the Ladybower reservoir as well. The concrete table here creates this beautiful cascade of water. Canon EOS-1Ds Mark ll / 28-300mm IS zoom lens / f/22 / Shutter speed: 5 seconds / ISO 125 Some post processing work done in Photoshop CS. I changed it to B&W and adjusted tone with green and red filters. I also decided to clean around the edges by cropping the image.
