Happy Birthday Harry!
9 years today!
My little bestie always by my side when I’m out shooting for my exhibition, seems fitting to add her into the mix here.
This is her posing, of course, when we were recently out shooting.
More Colour
I decided to play around with movement of the seagulls and have been enjoying the use of colour as well. This is possibly an addition to the black and whites to come in my exhibition. I love the lightness and flow through the image.
Colour
I haven’t had a chance to go out this week yet since to work on my commission I have been busy with other work. This is a pic I took recently when i was out there. This is the style that I’m heading with my commission, but the commission is to be black and white. I have been also playing around with a little bit of faded colour for some of the images for my exhibition. I always enjoy using colour when and where I can… when it suits the image!
Single Seagull
Often right now, I head out in the afternoon with Harry to work on my commission and now also an exhibition with all the rejects from these shoots.
I love this pic, makes me wish I could fly. The softness of the clouds in the background and the sharpness of the sun catching this lone seagull. Still not quite right for Ginni, but I’m loving the images and they are inspiring me to shoot more.
Sunny Skies
Beautiful clear sunny skies this time i went out to sunset at LaPerouse to work on my commission. The colours and silence were so peaceful and beautiful, but not really lending themselves to my cloudy skies brief…
Afternoon Light
Finally some clouds to work with for my commission. Not quite right, but still very beautiful.
My fascination with clouds is drawing me to constantly look upward. Below is a shot i took when out at La Perouse. These ever changing beauties are a constant reminder to me of the magic of nature.
Blue Skies All Day
Further more to the study of clouds, the weather here in Sydney has been so beautiful with
barely a cloud in the sky for so long, i have found it an interesting study of the perfect graduation
of blue throughout the day. In the mornings the blue is pale and as the sun rises it adds depth
to the blue. Photographically speaking it’s the most perfect background graduation.
Below is a shot i took at 7am then another shot at 11am
New Commission
I have been asked to shoot a commission for a private home by one of my clients. I’m
so pleased to do this and would’ve more of this work. It’s funny as i have been studying and photographing clouds recently as a personal project and this is what she has asked for. Above is one of my recent images I shot.
New Blog – What Harry Saw
After so many years of building up my last blog, it all went to waste when my website collapsed. Not to worry, I guess it must have been time to start again
So what’s the purpose of this post and overall my new posts?
The ideal is to keep you as the reader to keep coming back to my posts. So I plan to use this blog for my personal work and talk about this and also about my clients and working with them and with me!
My dog is a contact inspiration to me. She is my best friend and 99% of the time is with me when I’m shooting my personal work. Bearing that in mind, I decided to start off my new blog with one of my most recent and favourite pics of her.
Freed from its enemy, stopped short
The field mouse, now that it was freed from its enemy, stopped short; and coming slowly up to the Woodman it said, in a squeaky little voice: Oh, thank you! Thank you ever so much for saving my life. Don’t speak of it, I beg of you, replied the Woodman. I have no heart, you know, so I am careful to help all those who may need a friend, even if it happens to be only a mouse. Only a mouse! cried the little animal, indignantly. Why, I am a Queen, the Queen of all the Field Mice!
