Happiest with camera in hand.
Antipodean, traveller, into natural and earth sciences, and sharing the beauty of this world and it's inhabitants through photography.
Concerned by the actions of the powerful. Optimist, but they're testing me.

This is one of my favorite paintings, titled "Early Morning, Runway Prepared." I just reframed it using museum glass, because it deserved it (based on how much I love it!) Now it's going to a show at Wilbur D. May Museum in Reno, NV, along with two other paintings. If you are local, please stop by. The show runs for the month of July.

Update! The dodgy electoral reforms we covered in a recent Honest Govt Ad are moving ahead. So now's the time to have lots of eyes on this to ensure proposed reforms are conducted with max public scrutiny - so that they work for democracy, not to entrenchy the 2-party duopoly 👀 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3WTlyuhDs0
An offering for Feather Friday. 🖤
I bought some new sketch pencils and this was a nice way to test them. I’ll be sharing thoughts on my Patreon soon.

Capturing the delicate essence of a translucent flower—a living testament to the beauty that emerges when vulnerability meets the light. In its sheer petals, I find a reminder that transparency can be its own form of strength, and even in the fragility, there's an undeniable resilience, gracefully unfolding beneath the gaze of life's illuminating moments 🌸✨

A final sunset from #MiltonKeynes (not from this evening, way to miserable a day for a sunset). 90% packed and one day left to finish. Then gone...

Just removed this cootie patootie from my face, where it landed after jumping off the garden umbrella I was trying to disassemble. I didn't even squeal. There are a few around this morning. I guess they know what's coming.

This one is from the “Reflections” critique. Named this one “Near Absence of Reality” there’s a clue to it’s secret in the title, which could also make a great Iain M. Banksian Culture Ship name.
