  • There were people everywhere so I was thinking that a concert had just finished… Actually I think it may have been Hilary Duff? So I was coming back from shooting the cycling at Vodafone Arena and I was really surprised by the purple flouro’s on the tunnel on the way back to the car. With people everywhere I was walking through the crowds shooting at about .3 Second so I could really isolate the colour and make the movement the subject. I was really happy with this shot…

  • Concept collage mixed media piece… armageddon type thing (I was a troubled teen :) / Here I’ve used glued magazines on paper, covered with ink, acrylic and finally pencil. The collage constitutes most of the background forms.

  • The ancient abandoned royal capital of Sri Lanka. One of things that immediately struck me about the place was that the rock looked like a giant elephant, it has almost exactly the same coloring as Sri Lankan elephants.

  • BETTER VIEWED LARGER The former oil shale mining town lies at the end of the spectacular escarpments of the Capertee Valley, the largest enclosed valley in the southern hemisphere. In its heyday about 2,500 people lived in the township. Vertical sandstone cliffs stand guard over the crumbling vegetation covered structures lending a surreal impression. The site backs onto the Gardens Of Stone and Wolemni National Parks which are part of The Blue Mountains World Heritage Area Between 1939 and 1952 National Oil Proprietary Limited extracted oil from shale at their Glen Davis works in the Capertee Valley approximately 120 miles west of Sydney. The plant was built using much equipment salvaged from the closed Newnes shale oil works nearby. Although regarded as strategic for Australia’s wartime oil supply, the venture was plagued by technical, financial and political difficulties, and anticipated production was never fully realised. Viability of the shale mine and oil works were always questionable and they closed after a short and troubled life. This shot shows the Retorts Brickwork of No.1 Retort bench still stands, but little remains of No.2 Retorts. Shale was fed from above and moved downward through the firebrick tubes as it was heated and burnt. Oil gases were released via side off-take flues, and ash was drawn out the bottom by rotating screws. Gradually nature is reclaiming the buildings as we watch Australias history disapear….why?

  • Rising dripping and coated with seaweed, the rock and steps thrusting back the encroaching advance of the North Sea, this little gem of changing building styles, seems to echo Jule’s Verne’s imagination of the lost city trapped under the water.

Background Information: / Perga , now commonly spelled “Perge”, was the capital of the then Pamphylia region, which is in modern day Antalya province on the southwestern Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Today it is a large site of ancient ruins 15 km east of Antalya in the coastal plain. Located there is an acropolis dating back to the Bronze Age. In the twelfth century BC, there was a large wave of Greek migration from northern Anatolia (in modern day Turkey) to the Mediterranean coast. Many settled in the area immediately east of the area of modern-day Antalya, which came to be known as Pamphylia, meaning “land of the tribes”. Four great cities eventually rose to promincence in Pamphylia: Perga, Sillyon, Aspendos and Side. Perga itself was founded in around 1000 BC and is nearly 20km inland. It was sited inland as a defensive measure in order to avoid the pirate bands that terrorized this stretch of the Mediterranean. In 546 BC, the Achaemenid Persians defeated the local powers and gained control of the region. Two hundred years later, in 333 BC, the armies of Alexander the Great arrived in Perga during his war of conquest against the Persians. The citizens of Perga sent out guides to lead his army into the city. The Lost Arena / The Golden Road / Banff National Park, Moraine Lake /
