The Jama Masjid in Old Delhi, India – I believe India’s largest Mosque – one of my favourite buildings in the world. I love Islamic art and architecture. I wanted to create something different when photographing this beautiful building. Architecture pictures can be boring and lifeless – I didn’t want to represent the Jama Masjid in this way, because it is so full of life. I asked the boy in the foreground to run through the flock of pigeons so they would fly upwards, away from the building. It was a nice coinsidence that he was positioned in the doorway. This effect achieved, to me, looks like angels flying out of the Mosque. Angels of Allah.

It took me awhile to find this, I’d handwritten it in a journal. The name Kuan Yin is spelled in different ways, but when spoken sounds similar in all of them. In Japan she is known as Kannon. In the ancient Sanskrit manifestation she started as a male, and transformed herself into a female. I like the concept that she manifests as both because it reminds me of the yin and yang. Kuan Yin is known for shape shifting abilities, recreating herself in forms that resonate with those who meant to encounter her. As with all bodhisattvas she may also wear the form of an animal. Look into their eyes and you’ll know. Kannon listens to and heeds the cries of the world, she is compassion and love. Here is what I wrote about her after finishing this painting: “Through mists of time and space, manifesting form to form, life after life, Kuan Yin shifts and alters herself. Fractionalizing, she appears simultaneously in far flung places, a magician slipping through disguises. Always present but not so easily recognized. Know her by her compassion. Beneath the human or animal mask is a face without flaw, smooth and unwrinkled as ivory. It is young, yet ancient. Her eyes are reminiscent of the oryx and gazelle’s soft liquid gaze, for she is luminous with trust and mercy. Kuan Yin is the cool, moist zephyr caressing scorched hearts and dehydrated lives, the shade of willow’s soft green leaves. Her love is an oasis for the bewildered and abandoned a wayside rest for weary travelers. She has many names, many faces depending upon time and place. Pause and partake of her mercy and affection. Sip slowly, deliberately. Watch for stray willow leaves adrift in the cup.” Text and image copyright Helena Nelson – Reed. Please don’t use without written permission.

This little girl had the most striking eyes I’ve ever seen. ‘Meenakshi’ means ‘one who has fish-like eyes’: Meena (fish) + Akshi (eyes). The photo was taken on New Year’s Eve at Varkala Beach, Kerala, India. There were many Indian people on the beach and I went over to ‘hang out’ with them. This girl’s elderly grandmother asked me if I would take a photo of her grand daughter – I happily obliged!! I showed her the photo on the back of the digital camera, and suddenly I had 20 or 30 Indian women surrounding me wanting to look at the photo. The nicest thing then happened – when they saw the photo, they all wanted to touch my arm. It was my most memorable experience during the whole 6 weeks.

This is the first in a series I foresee doing, to increase awareness to the plight of endangered and threatened animals from around the globe. This First Edition focuses on three of the largest and most endangered carnivores today, the Sumatran tiger, the Amur leopard, and the Snow leopard. These are by no means the only imperiled wild cats, as the majority of wild cat species smaller in average body size than 30 kg are at a critical stage. / / / Because without these animals I would never be able to bring their beauty to you, I am going to pledge to donate 100% of all of my sales proceeds from cards and prints of the imagery in this series here on Redbubble to Wildlife Conservation Society Thank you for your support in the race to stave off the extinction of these magnificent creatures.

STALKING TIGER Slowly through the grass / The tiger stalked his prey / His movement long and languid / In the middle of the day / The sun was high and bright / As a vivid burning orb / His body moving slowly / Less heat there to absorb / Gazelles were moving fitfully / Around the waterhole / Nervous eyes were flitting wildly / As the world they did behold / A movement in the distance / And the animals did jump / The nerve ends all a jangling / Each one with quivering rump / Then like avenging angels / The tiger now does pounce / Gazelles are scattering wildly / With a death like spinning dance / And one of them is slower / No longer held at bay / The tiger now triumphant / As it finishes its prey Phil Sanders (aka Brummieboy) / 5/4/07 Thanks for the wonderful poem Phil!

Lucky enough to have this amazing woman choose to marry me. / Even luckier to have her agree to pose for a couple of pics :-) (very camera shy). Inspired by my Canuck friend Shelly’s awesome portraits with a scarf (you all know her). But I chose low-key rather than high-key. Wasn’t going to put it up here …. am putting it up to show the contrast in what life eyes can have when compared to my previous pic – No Hope. Shot using: / Nikon D80 / 50mm f/1.8 / 1/40 sec in front of a window.
