A new day…………………

I was up early this morning, and went for a little walk over the local headland.

Just as the sun came up , I quickly captured this………..

Sunshine………..

It really doesn’t matter what the critics say, sometimes it is okay to blow out the background.

A seascape, a meadow or just a wall quite often add nothing to the image except to position the subject.

Now I am not advocating complete lack of correct exposure, just saying that sometimes it’s okay to break the rules.

 

Seize the moment……….

No, I dont really know what I was thinking when I suggested we try this .

The husband to be was keen and I think we accomplished what that icon of fashion, the wonder bra cant.

No ugly straps with this support system, no underwires, and you will always know where your partner is………

 

Back Alley Beauty………..

Jodie, a talented Cabaret performer was singing in a fashionable and very bohemian cocktail bar/ restaurant this weekend and she invited me to meet her in the back alley……….for some photos, (what went through your mind, people), between sets.

A vastly talented singer/entertainer, Jodie is one of the hard-working people in the entertainment business locally.

Not only does she perform endlessly, but she supports and promote countless other bands and performers.

 

Sunrise fishing………

There are certain past times that seem to attract people who have no love of the “sleep in”.

Golfers tee off early, bike riders pull on the lycra before dawn, joggers brave the pre dawn chill and fisherman set their first cast with the first rays of the sun……

…..and of course, we photographers are there to capture it.

 

Elegance………………

Elegance is a quality that is fast disappearing from our day-to-day lives.

The way people sit, the way we all lean against walls or desks, the way we dress…..

Yes, I know times have changed, mostly for the better of course, but occasionally it’s nice to see a return to the past.

Vash Te is one of those models that can pull off this olde world elegance and she can do it with ease………………

A wave before dinner……………

I am not a surfer, however I get why so many make the daily pilgrimage to the sea before starting the day.

Invigorating, centring and just great exercise, a morning surf must help steel you for the days labours.

But interestingly there is just as many surfers that are out in the evening looking for the last wave before dusk.

Maybe it has a calming effect, brushing away the days tribulations, much like capturing that last image of the surfer catching a wave before dinner……………
