Took a different approach for the photoshpcreative07 competition and decided to reverse the concept. Here a lone survivor condemned to a future of infinite chaos manages to escape back into a alternate past of infinite possibility. This could be a physical escape or projected from within the travellers mind; an internal escape to fantasy, much like the ending of Brazil. Have since sold the image for use on the cover of the Griffith Review – yay.

Tian Tan Buddha at Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island off the Hong Kong Airport, is an imposing sight. This 85 feet bronze statue is the world’s tallest outdoor seated bronze Buddha. In its presence, one is dwarfed not just in stature, but in true understanding and perception of life and universe.

The Jama Masjid in Delhi. I was inspired by Anthony Begovic and his work ‘Angels of Allah’ http://www.redbubble.com/works/show/15306 The mosque itself was completed in 1656 by Shah Jahan. It’s an amazing place, serenity in the heart of bustling Delhi, large enough for 25 thousand worshippers. I had another version of this image up but did a recent re-take..

I will continue my story, which started with Mr.Moscow #1, this morning at around 10 am, Rebecca, one of the women who was sitting under the family tree with the ‘local’ mob with Mr. Moscow ,came to my restaurant and asked ‘miss are you coming again today, cause my friend wants to see you too’’ I love to come now I said, but I have to work, I come later ok, ‘after work’ maybe 3 pm..ok miss.. Later in afternoon 2 men came to my shop with the biggest boab, yesterday they where carving it, ‘miss, boab is now finished, you come mangroves, with feed?’ later I said, I’m bit busy in shop, but I will come, ..ok miss…I decided to make a nice feed for them so I made 2 plastic bags ready with rice, chicken, beef&lamb, some nice bread and softdrinks, 2 bags, for 2 groups, cause they ‘sitting’ under different trees..I even put some newspaper in the bags to use as tablecloth!.finally with ‘another’ lens 70-200 2.8L ,I went to the trees,...there was NOBODY there…s*&^% what I do now ?, i thought, I went back to the shop, emptied 1 bag and was determined to get rid off the other bag, I jumped in my old cruiser and decided to drive to the main “oval’ cause in the afternoon and especially at night are big crowds…ok a deep breath and i jumped out of the car and walked in a straight line to a group of maybe 9 people….1 lady (thanks God) regognised me and screamed “Miss, what now?” so I sat down with them and one lady attacked my bag with feed, but they told her off, and the biggest women (will get her name later) started chatting and did not stop till after 2 hours..it was ‘again’ a very interesting experience..hey miss. all white fellows looking at you sitting here, oh I said ,they jeaulous,..they all had to laugh.. they want me to come back and tell their stories, well thats exactly what i want, great I will come back, and we sit down again, and I’ll take feed and a pen and paper!! cause I can’t remember there names,also. they gave me two names, one for sister and one Aboriginal, skinname,..so I HAVE to go back and tell you’s later..

a gift of wisdom given by Martin The road less traveled can sometimes seem a lonely road… / With the entanglements of life crowding its shoulders, / It’s not always easy to stay centered, / Or even know which way to go. The world is filled with lush foliage, / And can certainly be pleasing to the eye… / Yet often those who drift too far to the left, / Become so withered and brittle they eventually die. Behold the beauty that comes from forgetting what lies behind, / And pressing on to what lies ahead… / Thus it is, the less we indulge ourselves with past distractions, / The closer to God’s purpose we’ll ultimately get! Thank you for sharing the words you are given! / Phil. 3:14

The Church of The Good Shepherd Lake Tekapo ,New Zealand. It was almost sunset and the sky was overcast and the air was freezing. I had been sitting and waiting for what seemed to be an age. Just before the sun kissed the horizon goodnight, it appeared from behind the clouds and shone on the little church by the lake. There was a feeling of God saying” hurry up record it before I turn the light off” / Canon 400D 18/55 ml lens /

This chapel was a lovely surprise as we reached the summit of Mt. Sinai, Egypt. The climb took a total of about 2-3 hours and was very easy. Mt. Sinai is 2285m high and is Egypt’s second highest mountain. The light from the setting sun cast a warm orange glow over the chapel. / Mt. Sinai is believed to be the mountain that Moses ascended to recieve the stone tablets of the ten commandments from the Lord. The chapel is not open to the public, although supposedly encloses the rock from which God made the tablets. This image features in my calendar “Scenes From the Middle East”

A reflection of a group of Muslim pilgrims at the Taj Mahal in India. I’ve showed this photo to people who have also visited the Taj Mahal and their reaction is always along the lines of “nice photo, where is it?”. For me, that’s enough as I just wanted to capture something different from such a famous icon.
