  • This is the very dysfunctional Osbourne family photographed with their cousin at their home in Beverly Hills,CA. / Without a doubt there is no messing – Ozzy really is like you have seen him on the TV show – Bonkers!

  • I was out in the rain and a bush of these pretty deep veined geraniums caught my eye.

  • I thought I would do a close up of todays wonderful sunrise.

  • Today was a beautiful day, the sun came out at last, the rain stopped, that was enough for me, grabbed my camera and headed straight for Langstone Habour. The tide was out the sun was shining and it wasn’t too cold. There were 2 swans in the little pool of water by the redundant windmill. All I have done to this image is a simple sharp and change to b&w and that is it. /

  • I couldn’t resist these two as they bathed in the pond. Taken at Langstone Habour on Saturday 12-1-08.

  • I borrowed this photo from Sharon Hammond and added some Apophysis layers to it. Check out the rest of her work at http://www.redbubble.com/people/sharon

  • “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

  • From my collection: / Perception is Reality Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Featured Art 12 June 2009 Rural Around the Globe A composite of two of my images; one of Ho’okipa Beach Maui at sunset, and one of a beautiful horse / Upcountry layered over Ho’okipa. See the person on the lava rocks below? ;) “In Xanadu did Kubla Khan / A stately pleasure-dome decree : / Where Alph, the sacred river, ran / Through caverns measureless to man / Down to a sunless sea. / So twice five miles of fertile ground / With walls and towers were girdled round : / And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills, / Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree ; / And here were forests ancient as the hills, / Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. / But oh ! that deep romantic chasm / which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover ! / A savage place ! / as holy and enchanted / As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted / By woman wailing for her daemon-lover ! / And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, / As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing, / A mighty fountain momently was forced : / Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst / Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail, / Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher’s flail : / And ‘mid these dancing rocks at once and ever / It flung up momently the sacred river. / Five miles meandering with a mazy motion / Through wood and dale the sacred river ran, / Then reached the caverns measureless to man, / And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean : / And ‘mid this tumult Kubla heard / from far Ancestral voices prophesying war ! / The shadow of the dome of pleasure / Floated midway on the waves ; / Where was heard the mingled measure / From the fountain and the caves. / It was a miracle of rare device, / A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice ! / A damsel with a dulcimer / In a vision once I saw : / It was an Abyssinian maid, / And on her dulcimer she played, / Singing of Mount Abora. / Could I revive within me Her symphony and song, / To such a deep delight ‘twould win me, / That with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air, / That sunny dome ! / those caves of ice ! / And all who heard should see them there, / And all should cry, Beware ! Beware ! / His flashing eyes, his floating hair ! / Weave a circle round him thrice, / And close your eyes with holy dread, / For he on honey-dew hath fed, / And drunk the milk of Paradise.” ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge – 1797

  • Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Featured in Mountains and Mountain Light group 08 January 2009 / / Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / 19 August 2007 22:06:27 / Tv 1/60 Av 5.6 ISO 400 The wild beauty and brilliant skies of Interior Alaska “Can you hear the gentle rippling of the shallows? / You can see by the convergence of diminutive waves and crests? This is the where the current reflects off objects in the stream, and creates the dance of light and sound. / And there, / just below the surface, / a fallen leaf waits patiently, / taking a little respite from its journey down stream. Soon enough, the water will shift again, and an upward current will likely bring it back to the surface. / Soon enough – but until then – it is art. / We call it art, / nay, / together, / we make it art. / But of course, first we must notice … “The moment one gives close attention to any thing, / even a blade of grass / it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.”—Henry Miller And what of it? / Well, listen closely. / Can you hear the notes … / the melody? / I can. / So soothing, / so moving. / As you lean back and soak up the afternoon sun, / smell the pine bows, / feel the damp soil with your hands, and smile. / Something connects. / Nothing else to do. / Nowhere else to be. / This is where you belong, right here, right now. / What of it, indeed … It’s waiting for you, / just below the surface of our work-a-day world. / There, / just below the surface, / where you are protected from the current that is trying to sweep you along, / to jostle for your attention, / to whisk your day away, / in the never ending lists, and the stuff that must be done. Listen again, more closely. / Isn’t that your song? / Don’t you recognize it? / It is in us all, somewhere deep within … / “To live content with small means; / to seek elegance rather than luxury, / and refinement rather than fashion; / to be worthy, not respectable, / and wealthy, not, rich; / to listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, / with open heart; / to study hard; / to think quietly, / act frankly, / talk gently, / await occasions, / hurry never; / in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common ~ This is my symphony.” ~ by William Henry Channing

All rights reserved Family: Rubiaceae / Common Name: / Kula Gardenia Grandiflora / Gardenia tubifera Kula / Gardenia tubifera / Gardenia carinata / Gardenia pfordii / Some call them Malaysian Jasmine.

From sepals to bloom face its throat measures 3-4 inches. It is a small tree from up to 15 feet with infrequent, sparse blossom set. G. lamingtonia grows to 20 feet with very heavy bloom set every 2-3 months in Hawai’i. An outstanding and beautiful Gardenia from Thailand cultivated here on Maui. They open with rich creamy white single flowers which turn bright orange as they age. It is a great bloomer that is in full display twice a year on the islands. It has a beautiful fragrance. They must be kept from cold and need full sun to bloom best. These large shrub is growing naturalized in Lower Nahiku. / It is a rare collectible plant. A 4 ” pot will cost from $18.00 to $30.00. Some of the flowers are up to 4” wide. This large, rounded shrub can be trained into a small tree, maintainable to a height under 10 feet. Acid, organic and fertile soil are necessary for healthy plants They produce large, single golden yellow flowers. Flowers change colour while maturing from ivory through golden yellow to orange-yellow. The wonderful fragrance is very strong. They bloom in spring onward.
