It was Merimbula NSW on a very cold morning, waiting for the sunrise when a couple of surfers arrived. The wind was blowing but I waded to a rocky outcrop with my tripod. Even with waves around my knees I managed some good shots and kept my camera dry.

I shot this scene when on holiday in Romania, in the beautiful city of Timisoara.
The main city square is full of pigeons that are not afraid of people at all. I used the flip out screen and moved the camera almost to the ground to capture a bit different view.

Each year, after the first big rains, the undergrowth in Darwin’s coastal monsoonal vine forests is covered with the tiniest, most exquisite little fungi. They’re not easy to photograph, as lighting and conditions are often tough, but I really like the calm feel, and sense of scale, of this shot.

This is an old picture taken with my old Pentax KM, plus unknown lens back in 1988″¦ and so obviously film. The quality is so-so having been scanned from an old print. But after all these years this is still a favourite as I wonder what was going through the American’s mind as he stared at the Statue of Liberty that summer morning. So many stories, so many memories, so many hopes. I send this, not for the quality, but for the composition and emotion.

This image was taken on a windy day in Fowler’s Bay and shows the shifting sands which the locals often have to clear from their township to prevent it from being engulfed by the dunes.
