Lively and atmospheric Cascais in Portugal is a delight - from 2024 Europe trip
I am blessed to have travelled to many picturesque countries and places like Alaska, Canadian Rocky Mountains, New Zealand’s South Island and the Lake District in the UK. I am awed by the natural beauty of Switzerland every time I visit this relatively small-sized country with its riches galore.
Image 1 shows a stretch of the longest bridge in Switzerland - Holzbrucke Rapperswil-Hurden. Image 2 is a March 2024 sunset cloudscape at Rapperswil harbour. Image 3 is taken near the beginning of the bridge at the Rapperswil end.
A charming village, Rapperswil on Lake Zurich offers Alstadt, an interesting museum on local history and a pictureseque harbour amongst other things.
The theme “Movement” was interpreted photographically as below and was “Winner” in the weekly Aussie Photography compettion week ending 1st March 2024.
It is an honour and a privilege to be part of the APS Contemporary Photography group. This image was published in the Contemporary group February 2024 Newsletter. It was created in response to a theme of #artofcolourasdesign, exploring the interplay between colour and design.
Thank you Mr Burch cafe in McKinnon for friendly hospitality and opportunity to display my photographic work. Bayside coastal Mentone image here, Melbourne, Australia.
On a photographic group trip with Ian Rolfe, dawn starts allowed us to experience magnificent light amongst the seascapes. This image was taken at Fetheringate Beach, Flinders island.
Although primarily loving landscape and seascape photography, experimentation with other genres can be interesting. The topic of this Exhibition was Realism.
Particularly loving landscapes and seascapes, I dabble in street scene sometimes. Here, weekly prize winner - Street Scenes Facebook site Aussie Photography October 2023 "Grecian street scene". Santorini.

Off Mordialloc - “awaiting Cargo”
This is my favourite type of imagery. 1. Fisherman leaving - silhouette bayside Mordialloc Bayside Melbourne 2. Simple seascape Mordialloc
Bayside Melbourne offers foreshore variation and different cloud formations and thereby photographic opportunities. Some of my images like this are at the current Art Exhibition (photography, painting & sculpture) at 26 Advantage Gallery, 26 Advantage Road, Highett, Melbourne till 17th January 2023.
Image 1 (Highly Commended) is of the War Memorial in Canberra where I tried to imbue mindfulness around symmetry and the beauty and meaningfulness of the structure respecting those bravely fallen to protect country. Image constructed in the afternoon light. Image 2 (Commended) is a coastal one of Flinders Island.
The three images below are on display mounted and framed for display and sale at the upcoming WHITEHORSE ART SHOW 27-30TH OCTOBER (Box Hill Town Hall, Melbourne).
