  • MR SUNSET – The first T-Shirt design of the forth coming clothing brand “SUNSET”, a style of clothing best expressed as Polynesian and Positive.

  • Polynesian patterns from within nature take shape and express the growth and renewal!

  • A sunset behind the towered buildings of a city casts but shadows and variants of grey and whilst there is life every where, varied textures of greens are to found in the setting sun of the islands, it lifts the smell of flowers and the sound of a breeze though the trees! :)

  • Elvis had his Blue Hawaii in 1964. In 2008 we present to you Blue Sunset a different vibe totally minus the brill cream as well, though still ready to relax out with a ukelele or two!

  • Afternoons are the signal to relax and enjoy the night ahead, aybe a walk on the beach or a long dinner and conversation with friends and family – the choice is yours!

  • The Marquesas or traditionally called “Te Fenua ‘Enata” or “Te Henua Kenana” respectfully, meaning “The land of men”. The Marquesas Islands are the island group farthest from any continent in the world, lying between 400 and 600 miles (600 and 1,000 km) south of the equator and approximately 1,000 miles (1,600 km) northeast of Tahiti. (Wikipedia) A island that still holds many mysteries within its landscape!

  • Palm Frond : Photo taken in Samoa, upon the island of Upolu.

  • Light, Humidity, Rain, Life.

  • Every child I passed on the roads of Samoa, straight after school had the biggest grin on their faces, they slowly would make their way home along the gravel and dirt street or leisurely along the beach, unless they were running in a group to get the best vantage point to jump into the local rock pool! Aaah Samoana days! :)

  • Aaaaah, a relaxing morning is all one wants, but more could be afforded if your view was such, across the turquoise blues and greens of a Tahitian shore, it would truly be selfish to ask for more. What else could you want then Coffee, fruit, flowers and food ?

  • Not many of Rarotonga’s Tiki’s, such as these have survived into the 20th and 21st Centuries. Housed behind glass and in dark corners with in the recesses of a museum collections do they now stand! My Collage displays it within a context of colour and movement not an object of web and dust collecting.

  • ” ‘O Savai’i ‘o le motu moni o le ōlaga faigatā o Sāmoa.” The island of Savaii is a relatively unspoilt and beautiful place, clean and inviting. This photo is of a beach fale’ ( samoan hut/house ) upon a beach on the north coast of Savaii, the largest of the Samoan islands. If you ever go there, don’t go looking for the hotels in the islands with their conveniences, go to the villages, met the people support the local economies and stay in their Fale’s, to know a place, you must meet and know its people. I can’t wait to i go back!

  • The Lone Fisherman From Fiti. Fiti being the ancient name for modern day Fiji. This Fisherman is on his Va’a ( outrigger) chasing a dashing fish, riding the slow heaving surf, he calmly chases his prey.

  • This was taken in Easter Island/Rapa Nui at sunrise.Profile of a Moai statue.

  • We men like to think of ourselves as pretty cool. like the earth revolves on an axis of us! – not likely! – hehe! But as i look into the communities every where, i see women more so then men, being the ties that bind families, communities. That indwelt spirit of solidarity and preservation for those abouts them, the resolve to sacrifice if need be in order for those around them to not go without! This is not a diss on men, we simply need to grow up, stop being selfish and step to the plate of life, then women wouldn’t be burdened with our short comings! Wahine – Hawaiian and Maori word for women or female, immovable Wahine! Immovable Wahines!

  • Shot from SH1 at Te Rapa, heading South to Kaikoura. shot on a Nikon D700 with Nikkor 24-85mm lens.

  • Small White or common Cabbage White, on a Lantana flower, both considered pests in Australia but both quite beautiful. :-) Kwinana Western Australia Olympus E-410

  • 8×10 inches, acrylics

  • You would think Easter Island in the Pacific Ocean… yes? Nope this is in Hunt Texas, west of Austin. this Statue is at least 20 feet tall and a smart likeness to the original. Did a time exposed shot at night and loved the shadows and stars. No one is really sure what happened to the Rapa Nui or even sure how they were able to construct or erect thousands of these statues all around the island. One thing is certain, one of two hypothesis, they were fervently religious or two, they were driven by a dictatorship 7TH PLACE in the / About The Sky Challenge / in the / Statues and Such Group Statues and Such Group Texas Group & What A Shot group
