Deep with the ground layers form and bubble to the surface. Heat, wind and sun turn this into a cracked skin on the surface of the land. ⠀
Seljalandsfoss waterfall I
⠀
A quick stop at the Seljalandsfoss waterfall in the South of Iceland. The waterfall is 60m high, and there is a path that goes around the back of the waterfall. Very beautiful. I got another shot of this waterfall which I will share as well. ⠀

Double, tveggja strit og vandræði

Deep from below the earth, it stirs & searches its way to the surface. A maelstrom of elemental forces, complex and energetic. Chaos theory in action. Beautiful, random, hypnotic patterns from a geothermal spring. I truly love Iceland.
forsögulegum jörð
Primordial grounds. Black and yellow's of the ground near a geothermal vent. The black earth provides a strong backdrop to the vibrant yellow and golds of the sulphur. An incredibly beautiful and startling scene.⠀

"tröllatré blóm"
Walking through Kings Park Botanical Gardens during spring is always a treat. The native wildflowers are amazing and diverse. This one is just a pink eucalyptus just starting to bloom.

The Dark Arts part II
A variation of the last picture. A few of you wanted to see just the circle of red... so here you go. Enjoy.
The Dark Arts with Nicholas
I am always surprised by what I see when out on a photowalk. Nicholas and I were out for a quickie (quick photowalk) and nattering away, when I spotted this. I loved it immediately and could see it with deep dark colours. A few tweeks when back home processing it, and its full Dark Arts reveals itself. Enjoy.
Something from a photowalk in August...
Sometimes it is good to put a bit of space between shooting and developing the final images. This one has had a bit of maturing over time, like a fine wine. This particular shot caught my eye initially as a colour image. However given a bit of time I have changed my mind, and am presenting it to you as a black and white. Enjoy.
Yellow brush
Today, something a little different. On Sunday I went out for a photowalk whilst the boy was out riding (he did 90kms). I came across this 'thing' whilst out and about, and was very intrigued by what I saw. Initially it looked like matches that had been stuck into something with the end slightly split. I had some difficultly trying to render the image the way I was initially taken by 'it'. Finally I decided on a macro lens, my favourite at the moment is the 105mm f2.8, hand held at 1/60, IS0320, f9.5. The object... one of my favourite subjects... flower. It is an Australian native of some type. If anyone knows what it is, please drop me a line.
Broome Salt Artist Proof
Bit of a different type of image from me this time. This is an image of the salt flats outside of Broome, whilst climbing to cruising altitude in a light aircraft. I really like this one at the moment. The original image has actually been made into a very large painting that is hanging in my office by one of my ex-colleagues Jeff Ovens. I'll take a photo of the painting tomorrow.
Where are the fine art pieces going, you ask?
Hey all,
As you know I have been incredibly fortunate to work on a large commission, providing fine art pieces for a number of buildings for a new complex in Abu Dhabi. Well after a bit of digging I have found an artists rendering of the finished buildings. My works are going across all buildings. Current status? Work are all shipped and now in Dubai for framing, and on target for installation in September. Soooo excited to see them up! Again, a big thanks to my Gary, for providing the opportunity to do this... truely an amazing experience, learnt so much. Anyways... the pic you say? what? where is it? hehehe... here you go...

Photowalk XX
Wandered past this door... interesting or what? Capture wise it was a challenge due to the shiney black door.
Photowalk XIX
Two images for you today. Great shots of a sculpture in Northbridge. Which one do you prefer? Me... well I couldn't decided... hence you got both ;-)
Photowalk XVII
This caught my eye as soon as I saw it. Its a palm tree. I'm a sucker for a strong repeating pattern. Enjoy
Photowalk XVI
Something a little different. Again something from the photowalk. Any ideas?
Photowalk XIV
A photo from the Rydges hotel...a lot of the guys got some great shots of this fantastic building. Very interesting and bold.
Photowalk XIII
Through a door... one of the challenges was to shoot interesting doors and windows. I like this image... something a little different and something that you look at a bit longer than normal. If I had my time again, I would try and reduce the reflection off the black door.
