Humans are rarely confronted with the realities of their actions in their own life time…............. This image was created to support a campaign to increase awareness on the degradation and irresponsible use of our rivers, waterways and wetlands particularly the Murray Darling Basin :)) Images are a collage of shots I have taken around South Australia, including Murray River and Coorong areas.

Emu tracks following a fence line through a salt degraded water hole along the Coorong National Park South Australia. My apologies to those who have been visiting lately, I have been away from RB for some time and just starting to catch up on images and comments. This image was uploaded after constant harassment from a fellow bubbler Smarti77 who has always liked it and wanted me to test the waters here on RB. Canon 400D 18 -55 with polarising filter.
They just don’t make things to last these days. But it would be nice if your could get them home first. Watercolour

Not exactly ruined beauty, this abandoned building has a beauty now in its state of decay that it probably never possessed before it died. On Central Avenue not far from downtown St. Petersburg, Florida, this structure will probably be demolished soon to make way for a new condominium.

Another shot from my trip down south. East Sussex is awash with alternative lifestyle products and services. This shop in Lewes offers ‘Ceremonies For All Life Events’, e.g. ‘Baby Naming’, ‘Weddings’ and ‘Funerals’. The guy walks by without noticing the ornate bio-degradable coffin in the window, or perhaps he ‘chooses’ not to notice? A book in the window is called ‘The Natural Death Handbook’, just right for your next birthday present! The only way to go in the future perhaps?
a run down abandoned balcony
Not to say this is ruined beauty. This abandoned building has a beauty now in its state of decay that it probably never possessed before it died.

She is at the top of her profession…on a two lane spiral staircase made of the gold of her temporary suitors, and her lust for “easy riches.” Having chosen such, she has become, even unto herself, “La Belle Dame Sans Merci.” / (“the beautiful lady without mercy,”....in medieval lyric ballads a castrator….here a castrator of her own higher womanhood)
Little village near Carcassonne, Aude (11), France. / As soon as I remember its name I’ll update this description. Taken from the car while driving on the motorway! ( no I wasn’t the one holding the wheel ;p )
Post-processing : grain, vignette & frame.
well the title says it all… this time the background emulsion of this 15 year old film has gone all brown and green… no joke I can’t even imagine how stressed this film got while it rested in a big box of old negatives for decades waiting for me to get to it…. and coz it’s been so long since I even thought about it… I can’t remember which way up the moon was…. straight scan from the neg with a bit of resizing and that’s all folks / . /
I smelled cigars and gin, strong gin / he tried to touch my youthful skin, my skin
