The wattle bird perched precariously on the rusty, cobwebbed-covered handle of the ageing lawn roller. It twisted its head from side to side; surveying its surroundings with those dark, soulful eyes. The tiny white feathers upon its breast were suddenly ruffled by a soft, southerly breeze. Holding my breath, I raised my Nikon D810 to eye level; finding the shutter with my right index finger and readying myself to take the shot. But my movements were too quick and too sharp.

Desert Dreams
When people tend to think of a beautiful landscape, often what comes to mind are the picturesque snow-capped mountains of the Canadian Rockies or perhaps a beautiful tropical beach in the Caribbean on a warm sunny day. They may also think of a colorful forest in the peak of Autumn or maybe wide-open rolling hills at sunset. But what if I told you that most landscape photographers would rather head out to the desert instead? Would you believe me?

To Go for a Walk in the Woods. Top Story - July 2020.
When I was in college… …I fulfilled my work study in the Art Department’s Media Room.

Whitewater Rapids Girl
When it comes to taking pictures of my family, I prefer to try and capture real moments rather than artificial poses. I don’t like going into a studio and watching as my children struggle to put on natural looking smile. I prefer a real smile with a twinkle in the eye that reflects their true and immediate emotions.
