My love of nature arose 6 years ago when I was shown how to see the spirit Earth, embracing a deep respect and acknowledgement of the lifeforce in which all resides. I started to seek the company of the natural world and gradually came to experience it as 'home'. Around the same time the nature photography of the late Tasmanian, Peter Dombrovskis, introduced my vision to nature's microcosms, where a small square of rock or vegetation can contain a mutlitude of natural worlds. I started wanting to capture my increasing wonderment and changing perspectives inspired by my meditations in nature through nature photography. My drive to seek the Divine in her most glorious colours and forms has taken me to places I never would have ventured otherwise. I have challenged both mind and body on my wilderness treks...as most nature photographers have experienced the pain and joy that comes from these quests to find the eternal, as we witness the endless changes that take place around us, the infinite possibilities that the physical world can manifest.

I am often asked about the technical aspects of my nature photography. I use a Nikon F70 with a 28mm-200mm Tamaron lens, sometimes with a polarising filter. My preferred use of film requires me more often to use a tripod - Velvia Fujichrome rated at 40 ISO. I also use Kodak 100VS and 100SW film depending on the required colour saturation. Through nature photography I have enlightened my vision - both physical and metaphysical. I am constantly learning.

My main reason for displaying my images in these galleries is to inspire you to feel that the earth is also your home and nuturer. I ask of you to please refrain from reproducing my images on these pages in any form. All my images are for sale over the internet or through traditional mail. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have.
