Trees from parks I have visited.

I visit parks when I go to my son's soccer games so I have included a picture of Mangrove trees from Fig Tree creek and a picture of gum trees at Abbotsford waterfront.

The Hastings River and Port Macquarie

I recently spent a long weekend with old friends Gary and Linda at their new home at Wauchope. They live on the Hastings river and I spent a large chunk of my visit taking pictures. Its a beautiful part of the world.

Ship pictures from La Perouse

The beaches at La Perouse offer endless possibilities for pictures. Because La Perouse is at the entrance to Botany Bay there are always ships coming or going from Port Botany. I enjoy finding ways to incorporate the ships in my pictures. Most of the pictures are multiple exposures and the patterns on the rock provide wonderful colourful textured second and third exposures.

Water reflections

Reflections can be a lot of fun; they enable you to create quite magical worlds out of familiar scenes. These are pictures taken around Sydney and at Darling Harbour.

Getting abstract

I've created some rather abstract pictures using multiple exposures. Many people have found these more interesting than the more obvious photos.  The best abstract pictures often blend two scenes that are adjacent and complementary but of different scale. For example I have overlayed some of my beach pictures with pictures of the colour streaked beach rocks.

Leaves- and more leaves

I cant stop taking photos of gum leaves. Multiple exposures and added light make wonderful patterns and here are a few more.

Bush fires - feeling the heat

Bush fires are part of the Australian story and recent ones have been very intense. These multiple exposures attempt to capture something of the feel of these fires
