TO ARARAT AND BACK – A DRIVE THROUGH RURAL VICTORIA
Ever hear the one about the Australian, the Dutchman and the Englishman? No? Well neither had I until this little drive three of us (an Aussie, a Dutchman and yours truly – the pom) took from Castlemaine to Ararat and back just over a year ago. It was only a day’s drive through a small part of one of Australia’s smallest states but the variety of scenery on offer was as diverse as it was stunning. Add to that one or two quirky architectural features and it made for yet another day of photographic heaven for this wide-eyed pom…
101 DRUIDS (NOT DALMATIANS) – ON PRIMROSE HILL
There are many reasons why I love living in Hampstead, and being a half-hour walk from Primrose Hill is one of them. Apart from providing the finest panorama of London north of the river (with all due respect to aficionados of Parliament Hill) there’s a surprise in store on nearly every visit. For example, on the day these images were photographed there was a “gathering” of druids – not something you see everyday!
IMPRESSIONS – NETANYA BEACH
The Israeli coastal town of Netanya sits on high sandstone cliffs above one of the most spectacular beaches anywhere on the eastern Mediterranean seaboard. The 12 images presented here reflect the beach’s vivid and colourful mood over a time-span covering the last four decades.
MADEIRA – ISLE OF VOLCANIC FECUNDITY
Here are ten images of the dramatically beautiful island of Madeira. The original photos were taken in 1989 on my old Nikon FE
FLEETING IMPRESSIONS OF SINGAPORE
Sadly I only know Singapore as a stopover , so these truly are merely fleeting impressions…
SOME PEOPLE OF CHILE
Those of you familiar with my posts might already have seen my cartoon record of our trip to Chile in 1991. Well, here are some images from that same wondrous journey, from photos taken just months after the new democracy had been born. From the man moodily anticipating his bowl of chicken cazuela in a Santiago soup cafe to the gentleman posing dignified and proud before his humble Antofagasta home, the people of of this amazing country were an endless source of photogenic fascination. But of all the images here, the unfocused and shaky picture of two waitresses doing an impromptu cueca (Chile’s famous national dance) remains one my most cherished visual records from all of my many travels…
Gardens of Spain 1 – The Garden of the Alcázar of Seville
THESE IMAGES ARE FROM PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN BACK IN THE MID TO LATE 80’S – TO THIS DAY IT REMAINS MY FAVOURITE AND MOST ROMANTIC GARDEN OF ALL THOSE I HAVE EVER VISITED – THE FACT THAT ON BOTH MY VISITS I WAS ACCOMPANIED BY A BEAUTIFUL GIRL MIGHT HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THAT…
