Red Bubble’s First Book /// In the Moment /// Overall Winner / I found myself in Geneva for a week for work last year. The only other time I had been to Switzerland was Zurich for 2 nights in the middle of winter, so I was kind of surprised by the beautiful (and hot!) summer weather I experienced on this visit. / The Lake at Geneva is where everyone goes to cool off and I was mesmerised watching all these crazy dudes doing amazing things off a high-dive on the edge of the lake. I took a few shots and managed to capture this moment among them. / I entered this work into the 2007 Linden Gallery Post Card Show in St.Kilda, and was absolutely stoked to have been awarded one of the six entries to be reproduced as postcards and sold through the gallery.

Just a brilliant unplanned moment on the street when I was fortunate enough to “have the camera rolling”... / Geneva, 2006.

This guy was pretty cool, sitting there minding his own business, and I just had to get the shot. But as I lifted the camera and looked through the lens he just broke into this mean stare into the lens like he was gonna hurt me. I saw it and quickly pressed the shutter. Later I complimented him on his tattoos and showed him the shot and it was then that his frown turned into a broad grin…phew!

For me summer holiday memories are all about bare feet, the sea, the smell of aerogard and barbeques, and long days and warm nights often spent in a caravan park by the ocean. This piece is about all of that, but I also wanted to infuse it with a bit of darkness and mystery …Holiday villages are so full of life and colourful characters by day, but at night when all have gone to bed and secured their temporary little homes, they can be quite strange and creepy…

Wilsons Promontory – ‘The Prom’, 2008 Have managed this summer to get out there and surf a bit. Lately just me, my board and my camera down the coast, tenting it and basically taking time out for myself. After a few hours in the water you get this kind of fuzzy peaceful feeling inside, equal parts exhaustion and elation. I love that headspace of daydreaming, and find it a really inspirational state for visual ideas to come to the surface.

Freeway underpass – Downtown Guangzhou, China, 2008 “There are crossing lines marked out around the square of the intersection, but basically people will take any criss-crossing line from one side to the other…and the lights and the traffic dont really phase them too much at all! This is a very calm moment the morning after the Chinese New Year celebrations.”

We all spend a part of each day, just waiting for something…a phone call…a bus to come…the traffic to move…the kettle to boil…a holiday…a pay rise…love…happiness…success…a file to upload. / Perhaps you’ve been waiting your whole life for something to happen? / Or maybe it’s just about to…any minute now.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Shimmering Palms Portland Roads, Cape York Peninsula, Far North Queensland, Australia. Portland Roads has a monument to explorer Edmund Kennedy, whose ill-fated expedition to the Cape ended with all members speared to death except for Aborigine guide Jacky-Jacky who managed to reach Somerset. The abandoned remnants of a military harbour used by US forces in WWII can still be seen here. / During World War II and the area became a staging post for at least 50,000 American and Australian troops. In 1942, a large airbase was constructed as a launching pad for American aerial bombing raids in the Pacific and the road from the Lockhart River airstrip to Portland Roads jetty (now removed) was sealed. / When the American 90th Bomb Group, known as the “Jolly Rogers”, arrived at Iron Range, they found two airstrips, named Claudie and Gordon, unfinished and unsealed. They described it as the worst airfield they were ever posted at during the war. / American Coast Artillery Regiments were deployed around the airstrips. W. Rollins, of the 197th Coast Artillery (AA) Regiment, described the conditions in his diary. “The strips were a disaster – Muddy and flooded most of the time. I witnessed planes land without landing gear down, motors that didn’t run, sometimes in a foot of water.” / They manned anti-aircraft gun positions in the area until mid-1943. “Japanese planes had been sighted near the jetty but never an air raid. We experience at least two alerts every day – it seems the Japanese keep watch over this area.” W. Rollins. / Difficult conditions were made worse during the monsoonal rains and possibly contributed to some of the several military aircraft crashes in the area. One of the worst disasters took place on 16 November 1942, when B-24 Liberators of the 90th Bomb Group took off on their first bombing raid of Rabaul. Dust blown up during take-off obscured the dim airfield lights, causing the eleventh aircraft in line to veer off the runway and crash into three stationary aircraft killing 11 men. / Today, small patches of bitumen and remains of old bridges, bunkers, gun emplacements, defensive pits, machinery parts, concrete footings and fuel drum dumps can still be seen in the area, slowly being obscured by rainforest. A memorial has been erected at the Iron Range Airport in recognition of the lives lost during the war. 100% of proceeds received from Redbubble in respect to sales of “Shimmering Palms” will be donated to “thegreataustraliancancerbushwalk” for the Cancer Council.
