Just downstream from where the Franklin River joins the Gordon RIver in Tasmania’s South-West World Heritage Area. Despite its remote, pristine appearance, this spot recieves thousands of visitors per year from nearby Strahan. After rafting the Franklin River, it’s a bit of a shock to arrive here amidst a throng of tourists, a float plane, and a large tourist ferry… Limited to cards on RedBubble, this image is available as a limited edition print from my website © Doug Thost 2005 Tech details: Canon EOS1n with 20-35mm lens, 30sec exposure on Fuji Provia 100

A rather sad and beat up looking chipmunk looking for food on the rocks in Fuerteventura seen on our recent holiday… Poor thing looked so pathetic… Brought to mind the famous scene in Oliver. We did give the poor thing some food.

Taken in 1966, this is one of my favourite images of the 60’s of the iconic DJ, Sir Jimmy Savile OBE. I took the shot when I was 20 during my assistant days at 1:15 am, after a long advertising shoot for a petrol company with my boss, top fashion and advertising photographer John Cowan. I asked Sir Jim if I could run a couple of rolls of film for my portfolio. True gent that he is, Jim said “Sure!” even though every one was pretty tired after the 5 hour gasoline ad session. Anyhow, this is the result and it remains one of my favourite pictures to this day as it shows Sir Jim as he really was and is – a strong and generous human being who did not take himself too seriously. You are a true professional Jim, and I am eternally grateful to you for giving me this opportunity. Technical Details: Camera: Hasselblad 500C / Lens: 80mm Planar / Film: Tri-X / ASA: 400 rated at 200 / Exposure: 1/125 sec at f/16 / Lighting: 5,000 Joule Strobe in perspex light bank. © 1966 John Hooton Photography

Acrylic on canvas. / A memorial portrait of my friend’s cat, Ringo, also known as Sir Pringleton Pea, or La Pea (cats need several names), which I have painted as a wedding present. I have tried to apply, in this painting, the things I have learned from the work of the amazing Al Neaimi. The photograph, unfortunately, does not capture the effects of the metallic golds and coppers I have used in the painting – particularly all the pale gold tips I have added to the hair, which from certain angles, give a shimmering, sunlit effect. / Happy to accept any cat portrait commissions. /

Mr Sir and I live in the same place. Not the same apartment number but one wall away. He’s not my cat and I’m not his human so I don’t want any flack about people starting to look like their pets! It just happens to be that we are the only two black things in the complex. Naturally he looks up to me [because he’s short] for social guidance since I’m the senior member of our unofficial duo. And I try to keep him straight about stuff like the proper hair/fur dye for pesky gray whiskers and how to talk to women without having a hand down the front of your pants. (He’s got that one down since he doesn’t wear pants but I still watch him to make sure he doesn’t do any backsliding). Mr Sir isn’t his full name and I can’t remember what it is. Something like ‘Mr Sir Rudolph the 14th’ maybe. He answers to just the “M” and “S” sounds so you can call him “Ms” and he’ll answer. And boy will he answer! This hairy furball talks more than a 12-year old girl with permission to use the home phone. And like humans, he has dozens of sounds/words and uses them all for maximum effect. Hunger? Here come the whine that will make a Siamese want to kill him. Bored? Every hear a cat grumble to itself? Disquieting to say the least. “Hello! I wanna visit!” As clear as a human child learning to talk, you look at him in wonder. Well, this week, Mr Sir made the leap from neighbour to houseguest. I come home and the single ‘mew’ is waiting at my door. Why? Did he get mixed up and think I was his owner (a Caucasian female at least 25 years younger than I) or forget what his apartment number is? Hands full, I have a choice: put down everything and pacify him until he gets bored and grumbles walking away, or; open the door and watch him race inside before me. Until he rips up something, fails to talk when he needs to go outside, or fights me for food, I guess I can stand a visitor for about 15 minutes while he explores and talks to me about how messy a housekeeper I am. Ungrateful. Simply ungrateful. Soon the warnings will be in the newspapers, the radio, the Internet, and the television. Mr Sir who’s sorta like that ‘indoor/outdoor’ carpet and covers the floor in both places, will be sequestered to his proper home and left to exercise his vocabulary upon everyone within earshot. It’s not his fault but it’s another variation of “Strange Fruit” so being black has its serious and unique risks. While I won’t be swinging from a lynching tree cuz I’m a ‘black cat’ (musical slang for a jazz musician), Mr Sir could be because Halloween is coming and there are people (who shouldn’t even be called ‘people’) who do terrible things to black cats. Mr Sir won’t be visiting for a while as he adjusts badly to becoming an ‘inside only’ feline. And I won’t have to fight him for the right to come into my own apartment first (or not to bat my keys in the doorknob or attack the mantis I’m shooting, but that’s another story). We will be forced apart for a bit but that’s OK. He may be horrifically annoyed I get to be outside and he doesn’t but he doesn’t know about “strange fruit” and I hope he never learns. Some disasters need to be keep ‘human only’. After all, why should a talking cat have to talk about crap like that??? PS I actually thought I took this shot with my ‘pocket rocket’: Olympus IR-500. But looking back at the files I see it came from the lens of my Nikon D80 at its closest focal point of 18mm! I obviously didn’t want to use flash for multiple reasons (not the least of which is animals have such reflective eyes that flashes make them hideous). So on full manual, I pulled off this shot in incandescent lighting from the front and the careful addition of some ISO and on-board noise reduction. While Mr Sir is amazing calm when warm and sleepy, I still shot him at high speed and the camera’s sharpest setting (most VIVID) to be sure I didn’t get any blur while capturing every nuance of his face and fur. This shot is as honest and accurate a shot can be of this great feline. There was enlargement for uploading but nothing more than a bit of cropping done to make it more intimate. In the full sized shot, the image is slightly larger than 1 to 1 macro as measured by Mr Sir’s my manually comparing his eyes to the larger Red Bubble image of his eyes. Any closer and his breath would have fogged the lens (and turned my stomach). LOL! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ / 50% of any profit made from the sale of this piece will go directly to the buyer’s choice between PAWS, PETA, and the SPCA.

On a very rainy day, in a very rainy city… Sir Cricket von Marionette decided to have his portrait taken. You see, Sir Cricket had a ladyfriend whom he bestowed the utmost admiration upon. One could even say he prized her esteemed company beyond all other crickets in that drizzly town. Perhaps even in the entire land, though Sir Cricket von Marionette was not one to go galavanting too far beyond the streets of his beloved home. *NOTICE** / To read the story in it’s entirety… please click here

This saddens me more than many a thing in life has of late: Mr. Sir and his owner moved from my apartment complex. I got to know this cat better than his owner because he came to me and accepted me as who I am. Not that his owner wouldn’t have as well but I was… Well, she was human and that made it a LOT tougher for me to bond with her. Her cat was truly a ‘love junkie’ and spent time in every apartment where the door opened and he could slip in fast enough. He was readily evicted from a couple but welcomed with open arms at many more. I like to think he enjoyed visiting me the best because I had so many interesting things everywhere, all the wrong places, disorganized and fun to explore each visit. Mr. Sir didn’t move far but it moved further than I can comfortably go to visit him. Being in an all new neighbourhood and spending time there to play with him would be almost impossible for me. His new home is well within walking distance and I may wander by there sometime but I don’t visit people so sadly, I can’t visit their Masters. Mr. Sir’s human was a wonderful soul and the best friend a cat could have so I will not worry for him a heartbeat. But he was also the best friend I had and his departure hurts deeper than I have words to explain. This is the rock outside my apartment door and the one he snoozed on in the summer to be close when I came home. There are plenty cooler places and more rocks that stay cool out of the sun but he chose ‘mine’. There was no finer place for him to pose one last time and let me enjoy his beauty in a portrait. If you know where to look, you can see this rock using Google Earth, albeit sans the best cat in the world. Hmmm, wow. It will always be sans the best cat in the world now. This shot is a gift to anyone who would like it. There is no mark up. This shot is also a gift to myself. Odds are good I won’t reply to anything posted here. Nothing said could match the feelings I’m experiencing right now. In a while I’ll probably be able to read your comments if they come but not today, not too soon. So, enjoy this peek at my last time seeing Mr. Sir outside my door. Say what you’d like or say nothing. Neither way really matters. It’s what lies in the heart that matters. Hearts need no words. Goodbye, my friend.

Hologram Tam better known as Thomas Mc Anea was trying a little quantative easing of his own but sadly his assistance with the current financial crisis wasn’t appreciated. Tam & his associates have been sent to prison for forging UK banknotes. / Tam’s artistic talents have got him six years in prison. By the time he gets out the financial crisis should be over & he could earn a good living along with the likes Sir Fred Goodwin & many others who have guided us through & into these difficult times. / It has to be said though; at least Tam has got real talent. / I had an idea that Hologram Tam sounded a bit like Telegram Sam so re-worked my original idea to incorporate a Marc Bolan T.REX EMI style version. / More Info can be found here
