I was born in the land of Banjo Paterson, gum trees, and weather extremes.
I am a freelance photographer. I love to make images that make people happy. To capture forever a precious moment.
I am also a freelance writer/editor.
I live in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, but still like to claim my Australian heritage.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Communications in 2008.
I am writing my first novel.
I love to write poetry, short stories, and also write for the web.
And there is nothing that is on a par with a sunny summer's day spent at Waihi Beach.

Cool! I like the third one the best. It looks like a watercolor, and I have an interest in trying to convert photos to look like art. Were these done in Photoshop?
Thanks for visiting my blog and for the nice comment!

These are your best photo edits yet! I think the third one looks so much an italian landscape of grape fields. The second one reminds me of old then and now pictures. Like the grounds of an old army outpost. And the fifth like England in the time of Feudalism. Its only missing the horse buggy and farmers.
I can’t pick a favorite. Each one is a world unto itself. I would want to explore them all. Well actualy, you may guess correctly that the 4rth one catches my eye.

My sea paths and Cameroon’s roads seem equally transient. How long can wood hold out against vehicles? I do miss our primitive roads on the island tho’, we used to stop and chat while trying to pass. Now it’s all asphalt and rolled up windows.

Is it not true that ALL paths are transient? And yes – the old roads lent themselves to conversation much more than the smooth, slick freeways of today. rather like life itself sadly. ๐ฆ
