23.01.2022 A bit of unashamed self promotion spam for the few that still visit this page. For the first time ever I entered the Australian Photographer of the year competition and am chuffed to announce that my two submissions made the top 30 photos. The first was a Landscape portfolio of 4 connected images for which I submitted 4 aerial shots of the salt lakes of Western Australia.... The second was another aerial image of Big Lagoon shot on my trip to Shark Bay late 2020 and was entered into the ohoto of the year category. Apologies if you are on my non photography page and have already seen this and also apologies for the self promotion but as you can tell I'm quite chuffed by this.

21.01.2022 Well after what seems like an eternity without picking up the camera I ventured out last night to a very familiar spot in order to try and capture last nights sunset.

19.01.2022 Firstly, happy new year to the few people who still frequent my page. After the trials and tribulations of 2020 let's hope that this year can add a little more positivity. I say it almost every year but summer for me is a time to put the camera down and recharge my own batteries as there tends to be little of what I like to shoot and the start to 2021 has proved no different. Yesterday was the first time I had picked up my camera in over a month and even though I shot the su...nset at Sugarloaf (where else) I wasn't really feeling it. Hopefully the mojo returns along with some clouds!

15.01.2022 A year ago today I was lucky enough to be able to visit this wonderful building, not for the exhibits (though it is full of superb and interesting stuff) but simply for the architecture. Set about 500 metres from where we were staying in Kensington it was on my list of must do locations. The 25metre long blue whale skeleton 'Hope' now fills the main entrance hall where 'Dippy' the Diplodocus skeleton once stood. Soon after our visit this horrible pandemic took hold and has curtailed my thirst for travel so, like the skeleton, let's hope it all ends positively soon.

10.01.2022 After two weeks of procrastinating I decided that no matter the cloud forecast I was getting up this morning to do a sunrise. Sure as eggs are eggs the SW skies were clear as a bell. At least I had the beach to myself and enjoyed the time just chillin' and watching that huge red ball come up...there are definitely worse places in the world! Enjoy your weekend.

07.01.2022 I took the camper down to the Stirling Ranges for a quick overnighter this weekend. Whilst the ranges and Bluff Knoll provided a lovely bit of scenery, the real reason for the 900km round trip was to visit and shoot some of the salt lakes that litter the area...and I have to say what a fantastic sight they are. The orangey red colour is produced by the lakes algae which when its high salinity is combined with temperature and light, it produces the red carotenoid pigment, beta-carotene which is the same pigment that gives carrots their orange hue. Informative as well as artistic!

03.01.2022 No trip to the Great Southern region of WA is complete without a visit to Bluff Knoll so after circumnavigating the 42 km's of gravel roads along Stirling Drive we made a stop at our regions highest peak and as always it didn't disappoint. We arrived at about 4.15pm with a mix of cloud and sunshine and with people still arriving to climb the steep 1099m walk to the top. I stayed for 45 minutes watching the clouds come and go and was finally able to capture what I was after with the dark foreboding clouds behind and the sunlight dancing along the crest from the few breaks in the weather.

02.01.2022 Another shot of one of the fantastic pink salt lakes we have dotted around the Great Southern region of WA. I have also included a panoramic shot from the drone which shows how close these sit to the Stirling Range which can clearly be seen in the background.

02.01.2022 Bouyed by my relative success with sunset at Sugarloaf I once again headed out last night. This time as it was late I headed down to Castle Rock beach where I was delighted to see that the shifting sands had uncovered a lot of the smaller rocks which you don't see for much of the year. Again sunset wasn't too shabby.

01.01.2022 Well as most of you will be aware it was Australia Day yesterday which is usually a day spent with mates celebrating what it means to be Australian (I won't enter any political debate). For me it was spent at home with Anthea enjoying some quiet time and watching the cricket however I kept a keen eye on the clouds which during the day were high and looked likely to produce a decent sunset. However by about 6.15pm the clouds really had rolled in and after much umming and ahhi...ng I decided I wouldn't bother heading out. At about 6.55pm I then decided that I should practice what I often preach and that the sunset definitely wouldn't be good if I wasn't out there to capture it so into the car I go and head out to Sugarloaf where, surprisingly there were few people. After a few false starts I clambered over the rocks to a spot I know in front of the rock and started shooting. I can honestly say that I did not expect the sunset that materialised with the clouds almost perfectly lining up overhead.
