Mana Magic!

In 2010 I was flying back home after my second visit to Botswana when I met a cameraman from the BBC. I remember asking him which, in his opinion, were the most magnificent places he had ever visited in Africa, [...]

Clouds 016

Glow Cloud

It’s bulbous lingering structure hovered precariously over the earth. It’s form rendering in my mind. My imagination triggered the reforming cloud into various shapes. The enigma started to dwindle in size, spreading out as the centred mass continued to grow. [...]

African Elephant 011

A Moment I Had Longed To See

The charging bull elephant stampeded into the murky water, thrusting his long trunk high into the air. The sound of splashing ringed in my ears. Blackened water erupted, upsetting the surface and its rival wake, each heaving step pounded in an effortless hustle. My [...]

Olympus Australia Adds to the Redundancies List

The imaging industry in Australia is on the decline restructure. Gone are the boom times of rocketing camera sales and profitability. Times are tough for most retailers and this has been reflected in a number of job losses across the wholesale imaging industry. Today I [...]

Pink and Grey Galah

Australia’s Pink and Grey

Striking pink and pale grey suit this jovial character. A sumptuous sunflower seed is pure indulgence for the bird who seems to speak a trilled language. The messiness of the order tumbles from a worked beak. A smile ignites in his eye and enlightens a cheeky personality [...]
