Another version of this shot was the hit shot of the past two months on my lightthinker-gallery on deviantArt. In no time it roared up into second position on this gallery: the present dates are 1985 views and 285 favs. Some of you will have had a look at my ligththinker-gallery and seen that the central impetus of this gallery lies in the combination of lightthoughts, i.e. lightful and inspiring quotations with beautiful photography. Let me give you the lightthought 490 which goes together with this picture: “We are each gifted in a unique and important way. It is our privilege and our adventure to discover our own special light.” / (Mary Dunbar) And now the sad thing. I closed down my lightthinker-gallery this week for the time being. I told my 670 watchers that Redbubble had won at least temporarily and that they had the choice of watching either of my two jchanders-galleries, the one on deviantArt or the one here. After nearly three years, a new chapter has been opened. This Redbubble gallery, still in its buds, has developped such a dynamics of its own that I decided to give it most of my energy now. I hope you will appreciate it. Taken at Laage Vuursche, 22nd October 2007. 10.33 am / Nikon D 80, Nikkor 18-200 mm at 70 mm / F 7.1, 1/100, ISO 500

Julie Langford / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Dignified By Steve Bulford / / Julie said about this image / / I was really lucky as I had two favorites that I really couldn’t choose between. as one [Monkey Day Spa] was chosen by someone else for Pay It Forward, I could choose Dignified, above. This image for me just shows the Mountian Gorilla for what it really is. A beautiful and intelligent being, capable of emotion, love, care and understanding. The photograph is stunningly beautiful and technically perfect in every way. I adore this piece of art, in my eyes, it is a true masterpiece. / / Yvonne Emerson GLA / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / - / Our Lady Of The Abortion – By ImageShifter / / Yvonne said about this image / / Its a passionate piece, It is just very emotional to me. I really cannot articulate it with words. Very few art pieces do that to me but this is one of them. Tech wise its perfectly layered, and the lighting definitely sets the mood. The young girl holding the unborn child. It moves me. For lack of a better word. If you cannot use this due to my lack of a better explanation I understand. Wish I could put into word what this image does to my heart. / / Darren Sharp / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Meachs Bogwopit By Randy Monteith / / Darren said about this image / / The detail in this is amazing, all of Randy’s work is unblievable Trace Lowe / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Love me By Antanas / / Trace said about this image / / It is a moving piece that evokes so many thoughts and emotions.

This piece really pulls at the heart strings in a very positive way. I find great comfort in this work because every time I view it I can picture little Axel being comforted in the arms of an angel. Robin Webster / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Birth By Coffeebean / / Robin said about this image / / The reason I love this shot first is the emotion it evokes in me. I love its simplicity, its beauty, the colors and softness of focus. It makes me realize anew the wonder of nature. Every spring when I look at my garden starting to grow I am reminded of how wonderful nature is. How can this be? How can something so delicate break through the hard ground and grow to something so beautiful? This photograph moved me to spring and its wonder. I sat there staring at it for the longest time and my heart was happy.. Meach / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Quiet Please By ichard Utin / / Meach said about this image / / I like it because it sums up the art of being a photographer – Great observation to find the little creature in the first place and the technical skills to capture it without disturbing it. Emma Anderson / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Friends By Ellen / / Emma said about this image / / I love this photograph for it’s simplicity and for it’s beauty, it shows a side to rats that most people don’t see and assume is not there, they are wonderful creatures and this photograph pretty much sums that up for me. Artistically it is clever, witty and bright. It makes me happy. That is why I love it! :). Faizan Qureshi / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Guitar Head By brokedownmelodies / / Faizan said about this image / / I love it because of its minimal detail yet it tells you so much. Love the sketchy look of the guitar against the silhouette of the man. The background colour adds a real touch to it as well. I can’t believe that it doesn’t have any comments. Ronnileigh / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Santa Claus Is Coming To – By Ivy Izzard / / Ronnileigh said about this image / / The first time I seen “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town” I fell in love with it. I, can feel the emotion of the children, it tugged at my heart. The terrior and tears just melted my heart. It looked to me the baby had cried it’self to sleep from exhaustion. Then you have Santa looking mean and about to find them. This piece is so life like. RachelJayne / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Cheers By Diana Calvario / / Rachel said about this image / / This photo has great concept and execution. The composition is pleasing. It has simplicity in design and yet is complex in technique. Overall it is an excellent piece of work.. Maria Dryfhout / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Yes Lord By tmlstrsc / / Maria said about this image / / The reason why I chose that image as my favorite is because it displays such child-like faith. We could learn from such simple faith… Also, it is so angelic and innocent. Sean Farragher / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Birdsong By Kim Roper / / Sean said about this image / / It’s peaceful, beautiful,and I never cease to be amazed by it. Michelle Hogan / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / The Resting Frog By Christopher Cooper / / Michelle said about this image / / The reasons that the frog is my favourite: / Vivid real life colours / Very detailed image. / I love the frogs mannerism, he is just chillin out on a leaf, he looks so content. / The painting is not a photo, however the image looks so real and beautiful. Danae Leach / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / First Taste Of Rain By Nancy Coyle / / Danae said about this image / / This is one of my most faves.

Zandria / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Hand in Hand By Andy Smylie / / Zandria said about this image / / This simple image of an elderly couple holding hands says sooo much. / You can see how much they love each other. How they are best friends. How they are truly content in life. How they have worked hard. How they value family. / It evokes an endless story of life and love. One that I hope to achieve with my best friend, my husband. Simply perfect. cvdad / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Let The Sun Shine In By Darrell Moseley / / Russ said about this image / / This photo took me back in time, about 30-35 years, when I was living with my parents and siblings. We had a farm with a barn very similar to this one. In late afternoon, the sun would shine through the boards just like in Darrell’s photo. Instant time warp to a wonderful age of hard work, fun, and a lifetime of memories. / / Jo O’Brien / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Waiting Time By gaapstudio / / Jo said about this image / / This image is really hitting all my buttons right now. It has a yesteryear feel to it with a modern edge, gorgeous women, crisp understated colours and I love the slightly ‘posed’ look of the characters. Shane Smart / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Equidisant Acumen By Steven Sandner / / Melanie Dooley / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Still Life In A Vase By Cadence / / Melanie said about this image / / When I first joined RB I saw this image and bought a canvas of it – it hangs on my dining room wall. I was very inspired by the colours, composition and textures. I know the artist is proud of this image – as she should be. It embodies everything I aspire to as a beginner/hobby digital artist. Leeo / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / More cotton Wool By Andrew Bosman / / Leeo said about this image / / Foggy images are one of my all time faves, and this is one of the best that I have ever seen! The fog / low cloud is just incredible! The lighting on the cliff faces of the blue mountains is just beautiful & the Anticrepuscular Rays in the sky just finish it off beautifully! Rhana Griffin / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Life Is Fragile By Mark German / / Rhana said about this image / / I love it simply because it is the only image that I have seen so far that I want hanging in my home. It just sends me… Shane Walker / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Beautiful British Columbia By Bluetiger / / Shane said about this image / / The clarity and colors of this is astounding, the HDR look as well, so sharp and heaps of reflections, your eye just wanders around this, so much to look at, to me its the best landscape I have seen for a very long time, it has water, clouds, trees, folage, forest, ble skies, and heaps more. Celia Coulter / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Never Quit Searching By hatefueled / / Celia said about this image / / Why do I love it, I guess the textures, the colours and for whatever undefinable reason that the artwork inspires a sense of wonder in me / / Silvia Manuela / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Sunset through the bushes By daviesboys / / Silvia said about this image / / I love it because to me it captures the magic of nature, the transition from day to night, and a great show of the different textures that nature gives us Peter / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / When Will You Be Back By Laurence Garçon / / Peter said about this image / / For me it captures an aspiration – a desire to be in a environment of style and panache – and it’s framed in a dream lacking colour and solidity – highlighting the remoteness of the aspiration (Melbourne’s great but it’s no Paris) / / Stuart Chapman / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Lever De Soleil By Robert Birze / / Stuart said about this image / / As a lover of seascapes, i’m instantly drawn to the gorgeous composition, that lovely colourful sky and the sun that is reflected so gorgeously on the rocks. / What sets it apart from all the others for me is the human element. The lady looking out of shot adds so much mystery and depth and the loose red shawl just adds to the colourings and adds to the floaty lazy feel of the shot. / An image I never tire of looking at so thanks for giving me a nudge to see it again / angelandspot / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Hope With TrEaSuReDiMaGeS By angelandspot and TrEaSuReDiMaGeS / / angelandspot said about this image / / This is one of mine but it is my favorite on RB because someone I do not even know in person took the time and effect to create something wonderful for me. Mark German / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Portrait Of A Woman By modernlifeform / / Mark said about this image / / This painting effects me every time I see it. The rich, red colour contrasting with the pale skin – it is sublime. I follow every curve with my eyes, from the thin wisp of hair to the knuckled hand. I find myself transfixed with the beauty. / / lumineux / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Angel Of Baghdad By shayne2011 / / Marion said about this image / / Of all the awe-inspiring art to chose from on this site, this image was the one that instantly sprang to mind when I first read Julies journal entry. As much as I identify with the artists inspiration behind this piece, I also believe that his powerful imagery of intense anguish and torment stands up so well on its own, without title or explaination. For me, that makes it a truly exceptional artwork. / / TrEaSuReDiMaGeS / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Snake Hunter By bobbymcleod / / Debs said about this image / / This is my all time favorite piece on redbubble. This was a very difficult choice to make!!! I have such a passion and love for nature but most of all……the birds of prey. So I gravitated in that direction. The piece I chose is of a bird of prey. It’s titled “Snake Hunter” by bobbymcleod. I love this brilliant shot and have chosen this to be my favorite. One reason being, that you don’t see many shots of these eagles. And secondly, these eagles like so many birds of prey……. have such power/determination in their eyes and they are just so incredibly beautiful!! Bobby has captured all of those elements in his brilliant photo of this stunning Bateleur Eagle. / / Colin Tobin / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Carousel By Deborah Parkin / / Colin said about this image / / It looks like many people here had a difficult time selecting just one all time favorite image. I am glad to say that for me it was incredibly simple. Carousel, by Deborah Parkin was actually the first thing I favorited when I joined this site. Carousel is an extremely poignant image for me. As a child I had several irrational fears and this image reminds me of the way I viewed the world back then: with an extreme sense of wonder and curiosity, clouded by caution and anxiety. Carousel speaks to me in a way that no other photo on Redbubble does. / / Dave Warren / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Bedtime By Richard Shepherd / / Dave said about this image / / This is such a beautiful haunting image that I look at time and time again and every time I do, I expect to see an old person come on to the image to get his shoes, i just love it! / / funkyfacestudio / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Ibrahim of Arabia By AL Neaimi / / Lisa said about this image / / This was a wow ! photograph for me, It is perfect in so many ways that it almost seems like a fantasy……too many adjectives to describe it. / / randi1972 / / / / Chose this piece as his all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Secret Journey By Randy Monteith / / Randi1972 said about this image / / I think it is the most creative and moving pieces of art that I have ever seen. / franziska p / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Frecled Flower By Veronica Pisica / / franziska said about this image / / I simply love how surreal this photo is, and how veronica created this surrealism with only a few simple elements. the picture seems like a b&w portrait, but it’s a very special way of portraiture. / / Judith Winde / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / They Come And Go By Paul Tupman / / Judith said about this image / / would like to submit my selection of the photo that made the biggest impact on me, and that is “They Come and Go” by Paul Tupman.. Having been to Stonehenge and experiencing the mysticism of its existence, seeing the enormity of the stones, and marveling at the monumental spirit and drive it took for whoever it was that constructed this wonder, I couldn’t imagine being able to convey the essence of Stonehenge with a photograph, but Paul Tupman proved me wrong. To me, his photo is truly a masterpiece! / / Aloramyst / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Lotus By Jarko / / Aloramyst said about this image / / This is an amazing piece of artwork that stirs my soul. The textures, the depth of colors, and the raw beauty of being a woman. I relate to it in many ways. The model is a brunette who shows strength of character, and empowerment. It makes a bold strong statement, yet is subdued with the soft colors. Can’t say enough about it. I love it! Kim Roper / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Josh And His Bear By Annette Blattman / / Kim said about this image / / This piece evokes the wonder and innocence of childhood, the colours and tones are wonderful, and the silhouette of the boy and his bear create mood and atmosphere! / / Jan Piller / / / / Chose this piece as her all time favorite piece of art on Redbubble / / / Blue Tent In The Early Morning Mist By bertspix / / Jan said about this image / / The mood in this image is to die for!!!

Photographers - What are you paying for? (Part One)

Disclaimer: This is not legal advice or even professional advice. This is some stuff I’ve learned along this funny little thing called life and may not apply in any way to your current situation. At worst, it’s my opinion, at best it’s some ideas for you to think about. If you need real proper advice, go see your solicitor. I’m of the opinion that photography should make me money, not cost me money. So far, I have been successful is making more from a photograph than it took me to create. Here is my list of not so secret tips and advice on covering your arse and saving your cash. When To Pay There are times where spending your hard earned money is the right choice. For example to obtain goods or services you can not find for less (or free) elsewhere. Or when you have done all the maths yourself and you feel you are buying into a good deal. But there are also some pit falls to watch out for. Art Direction, Ideas and Intellectual Property My rule of thumb, if I am paying to shoot, I should have full rights to everything I take. No ifs buts or maybes about it. If you shoot a commercial, the art direction team put together a shoot and then hire a photographer to take photos of what they and the crew have created. They pay for lighting design, they pay the models, they pay the hair stylist, they pay the guy who makes the coffees- and they pay the photographer. Some businesses operate under a similar model but suck money out of photographers in the process. As part of a ‘workshop’ or ‘event’, several photographers rock up with their cameras and take photos of a scene. Often they have little or no control of the setup, can’t communicate properly with the models and will walk out of it with similar images to everyone else who attended! In the worst cases they have restricted rights regarding how they use their images. So is essence, they have paid for something that out in the real world, would be making them money. Sorry if it sounds confusing, the concept completely baffles me. When you are shooting someone else’s ideas and have restricted publishing rights or have little influence over the set up, posing, lighting or set design, (in my opinion) you should be getting paid by them. After all, you are doing them a favor by taking images of their creative work. Classes or Tuition Wanting to improve you skills and knowledge is a great thing. And there are numerous classes, mentors and workshops available for you to choose from. If you are going to pay to attend these, make sure you are getting what you pay for. Before you hand over any cash there are a few details that you should have to help make your decision. Class Size: The more people attending, the cheaper the class should be. If there is a practical component, I usually wont accept a class bigger than 10-12 / Location & Time: no point signing up for an ‘on location’ workshop only to find it is out of your way. Also as a safety issue, you should always be able to tell a trusted person exactly where and when you will be shooting. / The Teacher: You should be able to find and contact the person facilitating the class to verify their experience and ask questions. It not always convenient for a facilitator to take calls from a whole class, but you should be able to send them an email and get a reply without going through a middle man. / Contracts: Ask if you will need to sign any contracts and insist upon receiving them before paying. / What do you get: do you get class notes to take home? Exactly what does the course entail? What can you hope to know and have learned at the end of the course? Contracts These are a great way to waste your money. They also happen to be very important. First and foremost contracts exists to make people money or stop people from making money. So before signing anything, read it a few times and make sure you are aware of what your actions are costing you. If you need to get images approved before sale or publication, you could be agreeing to never publishing or selling any images taken if none are ‘approved.’ It is completely reasonable to request changes to a contract or write your own and offer it instead. Don’t sign away potential income! You should always be able to take a contract away and show it to other people for advice before signing it, and especially before paying for anything. If you are not given this opportunity, my advice is to avoid it with a ten foot pole. And then there are the bazillion poorly written contracts that mean very little or nothing at all. It’s actually quite funny to me sometimes, what people will put on paper. Useful Links Australian Competition & Consumer Commission / Scam Watch Photographers – What are you paying for (part 2).

Hebrews 2:1 We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. and Hebrews 3:12 & 13 See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. /

We all have artists on our watchlist that we think are wonderful, but who may not get the recognition they deserve or their work just gets passed by in the influx of daily work here on Redbubble. I would like to form a journal entry here that serves the purpose of bringing awareness and traffic to these underappreciated artists, so my proposal is that anyone who wished to come into this journal and post 1 or 2 links to artists on their watchlists whom they absolutely adore. This idea was originally begun by JULIE LANGFORD so please be sure to visit her journal HERE too for more amazing work! Also feel free to link to their images as well, and try not to repeat the same artists as have already been mentioned and promoted. This way we can get the word out about so many of these tremendous hidden talents here at Redbubble. I have two artists I would now like to introduce to you that I have on my watchlist: David Linkenauger and Shelley Spillenaar David is one of my fellow home state photographers and takes really nice waterscape images, and Shelley in my mmind has a wonderful eye and a keen sense of capturing the right moment with animals. Please go take a look at the wonderful work of these two artists, and if you like what you see be sure to tell them so and maybe even add them to your watchlist! Also, be sure to scan your own watchlist for someone who you think deserves more attention than they are currently getting in the world of Redbubble! Let’s make this a huge success!

Photographers - What are you paying for? (Part 2)
by Jo O'BrienBe open minded about your camera gear You can make a tripod for only a few dollars...
Be open minded about your camera gear You can make a tripod for only a few dollars, tracing paper makes a great diffuser and a trip to a hardware store will give you very bright lights. Yes, there are downsides, and for the technically perfect photographer, these suggestions will be a very funny joke. The point here is keep and open mind and try new things before forking out $100 for a piece of shiny material that resembles a $5 dash board cover. Unless you use a biscuit tin to take photos, eventually you will want to buy a new camera. Shop around, get advice, try out a friend’s and when you walk into the shop, don’t spend hundreds of dollars on accessories that you wont’ use. It doesn’t hurt to haggle a bit either. When the salesman tries to close the deal, my typical response is “what else are you throwing in?” Studio Hire So the first question you ask yourself is “Do I know anyone who already has a studio set up?” If the answer is yes. Skip the rest of this section, suck up your pride and ask them if you can visit and have a play. The rest of you, ask yourself what you are paying for. Is it the chance to get a professionally lit shot? Maybe you could try a lighting course that will not only give you many opportunities to work with professional lights, but will teach you the theory and science of lighting. Often these courses are much cheaper than a similar amount of time in a rented studio. Do you want to try shooting in more controlled conditions? Try clearing out a room of your house and setting up a few scenes. The results may not be brilliant but it will give you a sense of how much time you can spend setting a shot up before you get to click the button. If you are certain that a proper studio is for you, consider hiring it out through a camera club for a discounted rate, or hiring it out with a couple of other photographers to minimise your expense. Models and TFP Models and photographers have one thing in common – they both need a portfolio of photos to proceed in their career. This is why Time For Photo shoots have become so popular. But before you jump up and down about using a free model take a second think about what is fair and ethical. At the end of the day, both you and the model should be happy with your arrangement. If someone feels short changed, you should consider modifying your approach. This is my rule of thumb. If a model approaches me to take shots for her portfolio, and I am working to her brief, she should pay me. If we have put our heads together to come up with a project and proceed on equal footing where we both use the images, then neither should pay. And if I conceive and art direct the shoot and have priority over the image rights, I should pay the model. Basically whoever comes out on top should be paying the person who is doing them a favor. Then there are test shoots, these are almost always done on a time for photos basis. These shoots are a bit like ‘warm up’ shoots for the model and photographer to see if they want to work together properly. They are also a chance to test new ideas or equipment. Often the images taken in test shoots are less than great, and if they do turn out, they are most commonly shared equally between all parties. If you are requesting a model release form because you intend to profit from the images, in my opinion, the model should be paid or you should have an arrangement to split any profits. My plan of attack is to put out a call for models. Then I will do a test shoot with the model who has contacted me and we either have equal rights to the shots or split them down the middle. If the test shoot goes well we may arrange to work together again. This might mean doing an even split of “her ideas” and “my ideas” for no payment, or it may be paid work if I am contracted to produce shots for a commercial job.

Another Cuddles shot. He’s my fave kitty model because he will follow me around the yard like a dog. Don’t get me wrong, I love all my kitties. This particular day he seemed to notice the camera and had me follow him around reversing our roles. He’d go somewhere stop and pose and then move on and look to be sure I was following him to the next photo place. :)

Paying for Art

The recent decision by Radiohead to release their new album with a user decided cost ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=/arts/2007/10/03/bmcolumn103.xml ) has made me wonder about art and its perceived value in general. The media has gone crazy on this story, musing on whether this will effect the future of the music industry in general. Will most people pay for this album and reward the artist, or will they happily consume it as a freebie? Would you pay for something you didn’t have to? Is it just plain stupidity to pay for something you can get for free or is it an ethical question? I think this issue ties in quite nicely with the issue of “security” that comes up on RB occasionally – the idea that consumers can simply right click and save a copy of your art. Early indications from the Radiohead camp say that “most” people are paying for the album. Most! That means that given the choice of freebie or payment, many are choosing to pay for art. I wonder how much this means for us, as artists. Does being fair and allowing the responsibility to rest on the consumer instead of controlling it by restrictions and watermarks, actually make people act ethically!? Why are most people paying? Is Radiohead’s attitude on this point the reason people are choosing to pay? By standing their ground ethically, does this roll over onto the consumer? A kind of contagious morality? I think this makes people think about the value of what they are paying for and receiving. There are always going to be some people who want everything for free and will right click and save your work or download the album for free. But were they ever going to be your buyer?

I just can’t seem to get off of this whole lollipop theme. I think it embodies the whole “magic of childhood” theme I am always reaching for. The girls certainly enjoyed modeling when I handed them the lollipops. LOL!!! Anyways, I wanted to create an atique-ish looking image, but still have a sort of fantasy / surreal look to it. I changed the girls photos to black and white, then added the color back in to give it a muted, vintage feel. This, not only looks beautiful as a print, but it makes a lovely “motivational” sort of greeting card for someone who either needs lifted up, encouraged, or congratulated. Thanks for checking this one out.

Cromarty, Ross and Cromarty, Highland, Scotland. It was previously the county town of the former county of Cromartyshire. The burgh is a seaport on the southern shore of the mouth of Cromarty Firth, 5 miles from Invergordon on the opposite coast. The name Cromarty variously derives from the Gaelic crom (crooked), and from bati (bay), or from àrd (height), meaning either the “crooked bay”, or the “bend between the heights” (referring to the high rocks, or Sutors, which guard the entrance to the Firth), and gave the title to the earldom of Cromarty. The town grew around its port, formerly used by ferries, to export locally-grown hemp fibre and by trawlers trawling for herrings. The port was a British naval base during WW1 and H.M.S. Natal blew up close by on 30 December 1915 with heavy loss of life. Today, the port is home to the UK’s smallest vehicle ferry, running across the Firth to Nigg (home to a large facility formerly used for the manufacture and maintenance of oil rigs and an oil terminal connected to the Beatrice oilfield). Cromarty is architecturally important for its Victorian cottages in the local vernacular style. The thatched house with crow-stepped gables in Church Street, in which the geologist Hugh Miller was born, still stands, and a statue has been erected to his memory. To the east of the burgh is Cromarty House, occupying the site of the old castle of the earls of Ross. It was the birthplace of Sir Thomas Urquhart, the translator of Rabelais.
