  • A chance visit to a spot that I had long been meaning to checkout with my camera, situated at the end of a track called Spray Farm Rd, half way between Port Arlington and Drysdale, Victoria. On arriving the sky was grey, dull and uninspiring to say the least but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and decided to take a walk along the shore to kill some time and give the sun a chance to get lower in the sky. After about 1/2 hour of waiting the light and colors were transformed almost instantly, luckily I already had my tripod and camera over my shoulder and ready to go.

  • Wild and curious red squirrel backlit. Taken in Baxter State Park, Maine, USA.

  • A lone maple leaf somehow stuck to rotting tree trunk, mayb e caught on the lichen. Both tree and leaf appear close to be reclaimed by the forest itself.

  • Raw
    by PigleT

    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.

  • The beautiful natural colours of the moss and lichen which grows on the trees in the Tarkine (Old Growth) Forests here in Tasmania.

  • It was a very wet Easter ‘08 in the Southern NSW Highlands – but all was not in vain! There was a lot of mist and rustic charm about the place. While taking this photo of the entrance to a rural property the owner suddenly materialised out of the mist and spooked the hell out of me. Thankfully he wasn’t carrying a pitchfork and didn’t seem to mind too much!

  • A Red Sunrise overlooking the granite boulders covered in Red Lichen alongthe shores of Binalong Bay in Tasmania.

  • The Freycinet Peninsula, slices across the horizon as sunrise clouds explode overhead and the tides crash against the lichen cover rocks.

  • Prairie Marmots….. UNTOUCHED IMAGE AND STRAIGHT FROM THE CAMERA ! Generally large ground squirrels, those most often referred to as marmots tend to live in mountainous areas such as the Alps, Carpathians, Tatra, and Pyrenees in Europe, the Rockies and the Sierra Nevada in the United States, and Northern Canada. However, the groundhog is also properly called a marmot, while the similarly-sized but more social prairie dog is not classified in the genus Marmota but in the related genus Cynomys. Marmots typically live in burrows, and hibernate there through the winter. Most marmots are highly social, and use loud whistles to communicate with one another, especially when alarmed. Marmots mainly eat greens. They eat many types of grasses, berries, lichens, mosses, roots and flowers.

  • “Love Rests on No Foundation ~ It is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end. Imagine, a suspended ocean, riding on a cushion of ancient secrets. All souls have drowned in it, and now dwell there. One drop of that ocean is hope, and the rest is fear.” ~ Quatrains of Rumi Plumeria Blossom on Lava Rocks / Hamoa Beach Maui Hawai`i Copyright © Sharon Mau / All Rights Reserved Featured in Natural Colour and Light group 25 December 2008 Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi This lovely Plumeria blossom floated from the tree which arches overhead as I was walking down the stone steps to the luxurious black sand beach of Hamoa, one of my favourite beaches on Maui. I was captivated with the beauty of it resting softly on the lichen blanketed lava rock and the contrasts of soft sensual beauty with the rough textures of the hardened magma. Of course I instantly stopped and photographed it. It is one of my favourites and I am happy you enjoy it

  • Pastel on Colourfix paper (burgundy) 70cm x 50cm The lichen growing on the trunk of this tree intertwined with the bark colours for some reason just reminded me of ‘tapestry’!
