I am a multi-genre photographer, nonpublic poet-philosopher and long-distance road trip enthusiast living in Australia. I am especially fond of photographing trees and the remarkable patterns, textures and pareidolia to be found in their bark.
Inside the grounds of Apollo Bay Golf Club. Can you see the little silhouetto of a bird?

A zoomed-in view toward the hills of The Otways last summer, taken from the Fishermen’s Co-Op at the southern end of Apollo Bay, Victoria. An amusement ride of the heart-stopping variety towers above the town’s foreshore reserve.

A female Satin bowerbird darts out from the trees to give me the once-over during a hike in the Great Otway Forest last summer.

When I took this photo 3 years ago, I thought it was me the tree had its eye on. Only after reviewing the photo this week did I notice the other character in its sights!

A scene from Antares Iron Art Garden last summer. Newstead, Victoria.
Looking forward to spending more time here during my next summer road trip, which is fast approaching.
