Just off of Grange beach is a big cage protecting the tidal outflow from West Lakes. It’s also the evening’s roost for a gathering of Australian pied cormorants. I’ve wanted to capture them here in their little sanctuary for quite a while now. Finally the sea and the sunset were on my side. #Cormorant #piedcormorant … Read more
I love the light over water during civil twilight. That time of day just after the sun dips below the horizon when its still bright outside and the stars are yet make their appearance.

Nineteen years ago today I met this amazing Irish woman who turning my life upside down, inside out and helped me to rescue that creative, playful, curious child inside that I thought I’d left behind long ago. Nighteen years later, here we are celebrating with a day of singing, rollerskating, messing about in boats on … Read more

Who’s perspective is correct I wonder? To me I am underwater. I am in that strange place most look down on from an airy world. Would the whale perceive itself as overair? The more I think about more I am sure the whale cares not while it’s in the water the same as we never … Read more

Still when you do the maths it’s only one percent of Uluru’s massive presence and that’s the bit we can see above the ground.
