Bank holiday….what do you do? As a sub contractor for a bank, I gladly accepted a day off and headed for the hills. Woke up really early and traveled out to the outskirts of Sydney. Had a great few hours of photography. This was my last shot for the day. It was getting late (11.30am) and the light was becoming harsh – but I actually turned around and drove back to take this shot…..just love the bareness of the land Photo Taken: 6-Aug-2007 / Time: 11:30am / Conditions: Beautiful winters day / / / / / / / / / Some other images from the same trip: / / / / / / /
My all time favourite shot i have ever taken, i was 16 with my new camera and developed it with old school dark room techniques! It is the swing from my farm house.
The Hotel Australia, Corowa, NSW, Australia.
AS IS…...........Canon S3 IS 6mp…..photograph taken 2005 This place holds so dear to my heart. This is the forest floor, and much of the green that is seen while hiking the Indian Creek area at Kyles Landing. Its just so lush, and green, and the smells of the earthy deep forest just come alive to ones senses. Arkansas Ozarks Spring Season, and the Buffalo Wilderness Area. Arkansas, USA. Scenes like this one are fast disappearing because of clear cut logging, and anything this lush is now only found in real remote areas, or in the protected national forest. / Ozarks National Buffalo Wilderness Area,
This photograph was taken using the TtV technique and is part of my TtV: Through the Viewfinder Series Photographed using a 50 year old vintage Argoflex Seventy-five and a Canon.

these small works on card are for friends going back overseas to live, to remind them of us here in oz. they were made small and light to fit easily into baggage, using typical Australian colours-the blue of the summer sky, to yellows of the sand and the oranges of the outback desert. (though I doubt they remind anyone of us of the outback-we never see that colour earth in the city!) more, it’s about the pace of life and vibrancy of living.

VIEW LARGER VERSION HERE An iconic Australian poem by Dorothea Mackellar My Country The love of field and coppice / Of green and shaded lanes, / Of ordered woods and gardens / Is running in your veins. / Strong love of grey-blue distance, / Brown streams and soft, dim skies / I know, but cannot share it, / My love is otherwise. I love a sunburnt country, / A land of sweeping plains, / Of ragged mountain ranges, / Of drought and flooding rains. / I love her far horizons, / I love her jewel-sea, / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me! The stark white ring-barked forests, / All tragic to the moon, / The sapphire-misted mountains, / The hot gold hush of noon, / Green tangle of the brushes / Where lithe lianas coil, / And orchids deck the tree-tops, / And ferns the warm dark soil. Core of my heart, my country! / Her pitiless blue sky, / When, sick at heart, around us / We see the cattle die / But then the grey clouds gather, / And we can bless again / The drumming of an army, / The steady soaking rain. Core of my heart, my country! / Land of the rainbow gold, / For flood and fire and famine / She pays us back threefold. / Over the thirsty paddocks, / Watch, after many days, / The filmy veil of greenness / That thickens as we gaze… An opal-hearted country, / A wilful, lavish land / All you who have not loved her, / You will not understand / though Earth holds many splendours, / Wherever I may die, / I know to what brown country / My homing thoughts will fly. f/11 / Nikon D80 http://images-1.redbubble.net/img/art/border:blackwithdetail/product:laminated-print/size:small/view:preview/3960725-2-my-country.jpg
Welcome to my art, circa 2006. As you can tell, I’ve always been enamored with texture. These are textures overlayed onto my own photography of abandoned farmhouses in Waterville, Washington. This one is the second in a series of four. My sweet friend Wendy has always loved these, and so – I dedicate this long overdue posting of the work to her.
Featured in ‘Mood & Ambience’ – thank you!! I have a customer who wants a calendar on “Country Victoria”, so this image is from that series. / It’s not my usual style or subject matter……but that’s what we do! Shot on location – Macedon (Victoria) Australia.
