continuing on my holga stroll around the foreshore of the beautiful harbour in the town that I currently live….. between two stunning surf beaches is a little deep water harbour and an area of rocky laval pools and such like….. and this particular natural little rocky depression is a real favorite with bathers who don’t want to venture out in the sometimes quite heavy surf….. in this image three little kids are all clutching the one body board and dog paddling up and down in the calm luke warm water and they are having a great time…... and remember ….. it’s winter here…... oh how we suffer round these parts….... :)

Girl swimming at Port Ban on the Island of Iona in Scotland. I took this photo with a Motorolla mobile phone cam in 2006. The resolution was so poor that it languished on my computer for a while with some of the others I took that week. Recently I started playing around with these photos using PhotoImpact and after many hours of tweaking produced some rather nice watercolour effects. PhotoImpact has a Watercolour button that provides this effect, however it does not look good on all photos, so I had to alter the colours and blend the photo heavily before applying the effect. I think the result is quite wonderful and for anyone who has been to this part of the world, actually recognizable as Iona. As an indication of the amount of work gone into this photo compare it with the other one posted with it…both taken within 20 minutes of each other from different angles!!

Children swimming in the sea at Port Ban, Iona, Scotland I took this photo with a Motorolla mobile phone cam in 2006.

PhotoImpact has a Watercolour button that provides this effect, however it does not look good on all photos, so I had to alter the colours and blend the photo heavily before applying the effect. / Unlike some of the other photos I’ve used this technique on, this one needs to be seen larger to appreciate the effect.

I go down to the silky sea at dawn most mornings mostly just to lollygag about and take photo’s and suchlike and I’m always amazed at the tenacity of the serious swimmers that inhabit the local sea pools…... and the funny thing is that although personally I have a somewhat feline relationship with water….. watching these early morning swimmers has encouaged me to venture into the actual water and swim with them…. and the water is like silk… the ocean is about 20 degrees C at the moment and it’s the most extradinary thing to be in the silky sea and watch the sun come up….

I Drift into your world, my motions are slowed by the thickness of your texture. You devour me, taking away my world, and I am frozen in that moment. Your cold finger caress each part of my body, reaching deep into me until you touch my soul. In your silence I see that freedom is but a moment that you are still and aware. It is awareness of each beautiful sensation, whether pain or joy, it is being free in that moment, free to just be.

324 images It took me a long time to make this image. Finding photos on the internet that worked together took about a week and the image itself took another week or two. It has a lot of detail and I feel it’s the kind of image that could keep the eye occupied for a long time.

This is the last of these dust storm photo’s that I’m going to upload… I have more but this is the 12th and they go from yellow to orange to brown and then beige as the light shifted and danced within this perfect storm. This spacey martian scene is actually the two ocean pools at Austinmer where I live… the sky is so sullen and brooding with it’s weight of dust particles and down below the white sandy beach is covered with redgold dust as well … the dust seemed to form a brittle crust over everything including the water and in places… like the footsteps on the sand… the crust is broken to reveal the real world just underneath…. even the minute solitary single swimmer doing laps in the chilly early morning water adds a heighted degree of unreality to the scene and it becomes almost like a poster for a post holocast scifi movie set in an exotic nuclear winter destination…. / . /

(Mixed Media 4×6 on CrdStock I found this postcard at an Art Movie Theater advertising a documentry of an Israeli Swim Team in the 1930’s,composed of Jewish Refugees. I found that inspiring which inspired me to make a collage out of the great pic of the swimmer, which I cut out and put against a background of sand,like she was on a beach, I added The beach ball & sun-tan Lotion(which coincidently looks like it has Hebrew writing on it) & a blue flower to her swim-cap.Next,I used a label maker(love mine!) to write the “Shalom” (which means Hello,Goodbye & Peace in Hebrew) & the title of the collage. Then I used a gold paint pen to outline the title and color in the Jewish Star on the girl’s swimsuit. Shalom!

This photograph is a tribute to my late brother-in-law, Gary Tierney. Gary died in an accident whilst competing in the Adelaide classic car rally on the 19th November 2009. His navigator also died in the accident. As well as being a keen rally driver, Gary was also highly active in the surf life saving movement. He was a member of the Point Leo surf life saving club for over 40 years. Over this time he was a club champion, club captain, and club president. Today, Boxing Day 2009, is a significant day in the Point Leo surf life saving club calendar. It is the day of two major surf races, the ‘John Marshall’ and the Point Leo swim classic, two races in which Gary excelled over many years. / Today his family and friends wore orange ribbons to commemorate his passing. The photograph is the senior section of the ‘classic’, Gary would have most likely participated in this section, and probably won. It was not to be. /
