This design inspired by Japanese kimono designs and wood block prints. I originally designed it for dark colors, but it actually looks kind of cool on some of the lighter ones – aqua, lt blues and pinks. Related Items From Our Other Shops: / (Click on Image to View and Buy)
After discovering this amazing forest of Californian Redwood’s, I spent about 5 day’s on this image returning to this same spot everyday. Location – Victoria / Camera – Fuji Gx617 / Film – Fuji Reala 100
I sit here and look out over this world. Disturbed I am by what I see. I had a dream once. A dream where all creatures got along, where respect and honor was strong. Where helping the weaker and less fortunate was not a favor but an Honor. Where one could speak his language with no fear of ridicule. Where one did not have to put on a mask or costume to fit in.I sit here and feel I am so far away and drifitng each day. There is anger in me that I have tried to keep in but everyday when I come up here and look out there it is rekindled. I see the ones searching and wanting to let go but out of fear they stay chained in their own prison. Not fear of failure, but out of fear of what the mass may think of them. I see the ones that want to fight but are not willing to join the fight because if the battle is lost, what will happen to them then. Time is being wasted like it will always be there, but it is slowly going by. Soon the gift of time will be the burden of wasted years. I may come back up here again, but right now I really do not want to. I think my anger is calling for me to take flight and keep searching for them, I feel so far away.

The view looking out onto Broad Street from a third-floor window of the Divine Lorraine Hotel in Philadelphia, PA. The hotel, which has been abandoned since the late ‘90s, takes it’s name from the leader of the Universal Peace Mission movement, Father Divine (aka George Baker) who housed his followers on it’s premises. Shot on Fuji Velvia 50 film with a Rolleiflex medium format camera.
Swanston Street, Melbourne, Victoria / Lomo Lubitel166B, Fuji Neopan ISO400, .45x wide angle adapter / Ultrafin Plus, 1:6, 8:30min @ 20DegC
This was the last shot as I was packing up, while I was chatting to a fellow medium-format photographer. It’s got everything: lovely subtle pink & blue sky colours, reflection in still water… well worth getting up early for. Taken on the Hasselblad using Fuji Provia film, at Friar’s Crag on the end of Derwentwater, Keswick, in the Lake District .
Looking down the gorge from the lower bridge, Falls of Bruar . I’m particularly impressed by the colours and the smooth glistening rocks. This area is rich in geology (an extension of the Loch Tay fault?): there’s a lot of limestone and other metamorphic sedimentary rocks (layered slate, possibly some schist) and a bit of red sandstone nearby, all folded making rakish angles. Taken on the Shen Hao 5×4” large-format camera with Fuji Velvia (old RVP emulsion) film.
This awesome winter sunset was photographed on Town Beach in Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. I had been photographing the rocks at the south end of the beach where the light from the setting sun was painting its way across the seascape when I turned around to go back to my car and saw this. How could I resist? If you look closely at the bottom left corner there is the silhouette of an Oyster Catcher walking around the rocks.

THE SUBJECT: / A misty, moody Australian bush scene was photographed along an old logging track seems slightly primordial. THE LOCATION: / In the wilds of the Willi Willi National Park , up in the mountains far west of Kempsey, NSW, Australia on a very wet and chilly winter day. / This view in the opposite direction to Into the Mist #1 . THE MAKING of ‘Into the Mist #1’: / I had not realised the difficulty in photographing misty scenes such as this but I soon discovered that even though the light was very low there was still a big problem with the dynamic range. Aperture Priority did not work for me here so I opted for Shutter Priority, 1/60sec being the slowest speed recommended for a hand held shot. With the mist being so close, the resulting f/3.7 kept the background nice and soft. / Even though few photographs were made throughout the day due to the weather and time of year, six of us in two 4WDs had a great day out in the bush communing with nature. / One bloke, who has travelled 250,000Km in such road conditions in his 4WD had never had a mishap until the last two times we were out in the wilds. Last time it was a fuel line fracture and a flat tyre. This time it was another fuel line fracture! / Fuji S9600: RAW, 1/60sec @ f/3.7, Manual focus, ISO80, Hand held. / Lightroom 1.1 & Photoshop CS3.

Mt Gambier, South Australia / Holga 120CFN, Fuji Neopan ISO400 This was taken in May 2006. When I returned in May 2007, the bench had collapsed and had been removed.
I drew the sketch of this Tee about 2 months ago but i never actually got down and vectorised it till now. As you can probably see the design is influenced by Japan. I actually got the idea for this from TBO’s Japanfluence group here on redbubble. So big up too you TBO!!!
This beautiful river scene sunset was photographed from the south bank of the Hastings River at the Boundary Street Ferry Wharf in Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia , on a mid-winter’s day. Milady Fuji was sitting high and proud on her tripod, with the White Balance set to Sunny due to the glare from the sky and nearest boat, the ISO to 100 for the good Image Quality and to minimise Noise, and with Spot Metering, Centre Focussing, Continuous Focus and Fast Shooting settings completing the set-up. / I chose the 1/500sec Shutter Speed in Shutter Priority as I had some previous success using this setting on some sunset shots and found it helps control the Exposure very well in these conditions as well as freezing any motion quite well. / (Fortunately it froze the flying Pelican. Can you spot him?) :) / After an earlier test shot under the same conditions and a check of the Histogram, I found I did not need any Exposure Compensation. / After I set the Timer to 2 seconds, I pre-focussed on the brightest area on the nearest boat, framed the shot, locked the tripod, squeezed the trigger and after the “Beep! Beep! Beeeeep! Kachunk!” … here it is! Visit the Sunrise-Sunset collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more delightful sunset scenes.

From the high plains to the deserts – the Eucalyptus is botanically iconic to Australia. With over 700 species ranging from stunted shrubs in the arid regions to the tallest flowering plant on the planet, their diversity is as grand as their stature. Most species are not frost or cold tolerant (temps down to -5C) though there is one species that lives in the alps of the mainland affectionately known as the ’snow gum’. (Eucalyptus pauciflora ). Whilst three other cold tolerant species exist in the highlands of central Tasmania. Growing as woodlands or open woodlands from 1300m-1800m ASL in Tasmania,Victoria and New South Wales where they form the altitudinal limit of the tree line. The ’snow gum’ can become a gnarled old warrior as it eeks out an existance in poor soil with short growing seasons in harsh climates. Sometimes shedding bark revealing bright green,yellow or even orange-red under bark. It certainly makes for a brilliant dash of colour particularly in the snow. When in these alpine regions I often find it hard not to get ‘lost’ in their beauty and character and always find myself searching for those special individuals. Specimans with so much character that they speak for themselves.

A spectacular Sunrise I spotted as I headed to work.
Model – Meluxine These are some outtake/alternates from the same shoot as Apple Blossom Girl – I actually took LOTS of shots from that set and am having strife picking the final shots to use, and since I treat RB as an alt/outtake spot as well as a preview/never before seen/standard portfolio, I figured what the hell ;) This particular pair were shot on my late Grandfather’s Ensign Selfix 820 on god knows what film, Fuji NPS 160 I thiiiiink… or possibly Portra 400NC. I had no idea what to expect, having never put film through the damn thing before, so the fact they worked and looked delightfully dreamy was very cool. These are scanned from the 120 neg, straight off the camera – no editing aside from putting them next to each other and whacking my watermark on them. Woohoo.

THE SUBJECT: / A very rare find. Two fine specimens of the fruiting body of the Entoloma hochstetteri fungus in the natural light of a slightly overcast autumn day. THE LOCATION: / Along a track in the Kattang Nature Reserve, Dunbogan, NSW, Australia. THE MAKING of ‘The Blues Brothers #1 (Entoloma hochstetteri)’: / Out on a fungi hunt with a Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club mate, we were only 150 metres from the car park when we saw the beautiful blue of these fungi poking up from the leaf litter. / As I had never seen any blues in my almost four years of fungi hunting, I was as excited as a kid at Christmas with this find. / This photograph is brought to you after much pain and discomfort as I was bitten by a bull ant, my mate was bitten by a leech and we were both bitten by mosquitoes. The things we do…..! / Fuji S9600: RAW, Super macro, Manual settings of f/3.6 @ 1/60sec, Manual focus, ISO80, Timer, Camera on ground. / Lightroom 1.1 & Photoshop CS3. Visit the Fungi & Lichen collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more fungal delights. NOTE: / I lightened the image slightly and gave the saturation a little tweak for printing on Ilford Galerie Smooth Gloss Media and it did a marvellous job on the blues.

THE SUBJECT: / Here we have a nice set of Actinotus helianthus (Flannel Flower) basking in the mid-afternoon sun on a warm Spring day. THE LOCATION: / The shot was made whilst on a wildflower hunt with a couple of Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club friends along the Flower Bowl Walk in the Kattang Nature Reserve at Dunbogan, south of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. THE MAKING OF ‘Flannel Flower Lampshades’: / The photograph has been purposely under exposed by taking the metering directly from the brightest flower to show the full affect of the sunlight on the petals of the open flowers, making them look like lamps with inverted lampshades. / What I really like about the final result is the wonderful natural composition of the flower head, the clarity of detail and of course that glorious light. / Fuji S9600: RAW, Manual settings of f/3.7 @ 1/400sec, Auto focus, ISO80, Hand held. / S7RAW & Photoshop CS.

This brilliant, delicate little wildflower, no bigger than an Aussie 50c piece is a very fine example of Thysanotus tuberosus (Common Fringe Lily). Found and photographed in gorgeous light in a tiny clearing beside a track at Diamond Head, part of Crowdy Bay National Park, Laurieton, south of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia on a fine spring morning. In this area the flowers grow in thick native grasses and throwing out the background was very difficult. The only way I could do it was to fit the +10dioptre screw-on Macro Lens to the camera, set the camera to Super Macro Mode and get in as close as I physically and optically could using Manual Focus. I feel the sharp angles of the blurred blades of grass in the background support the hard angles of the thinner petals of the flower. Fuji S9600: RAW, f/3.4 @ 1/120sec, Tripod, Timer. / Lightroom 1.1 & Photoshop CS3. Visit the Aussie Wildflowers collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more luscious native Lily delights.
