Lest We Forget @ Remembrance Sunday

The Tower of London Remembers

In 2014 the Tower of London marked the centenary of the outbreak of The First World War with the commemorative art installation "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red", which saw the moat filled with thousands of ceramic poppies. Each of the 888,246 ceramic poppies represented a British and Commonwealth military fatality during the Great War.

Created by artists Paul Cummins and Tom Piper. 888,246 ceramic poppies progressively filled the Tower's famous moat between July and November 2014.
All the poppies were handmade by a team of artists and people with links to the British Armed Forces.

The scale of the installation was intended to reflect the magnitude of such an important centenary and create a powerful visual commemoration.
Each day in the moat at sunset, names of 180 Commonwealth troops killed during the war were read out as part of a Roll of Honour, followed by the Last Post.

Red poppies long symbolised remembrance because they were the first flowers to bloom across the devastated, blood-soaked battlefields of Flanders.

Saying GoodBye Forever !

On a cold damp foggy London morning with winter descending upon our garden.

This was shot 6 years ago today on the last morning in our London home an hour prior to departing to Heathrow for our new adventures back to the Land of Aus and to the wonderful South West of WA, that being Busselton.
Growing up in the burbs of Perth never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I’d live for 36 years in London becoming a professional photographer travelling the world. It just never occurred to me and it all seems just a distant memory now apart from still shooting as a photographer.
As I’ve always said about leaving the UK and returning to Aus, "It was the right move at the right time for us”.

02 of 47,344 pictures, so now there’s only 47,342 to post !

I shot this picture In Boston on a iPhone X. I was exiting from the incredible underground Bus terminal, yes an underground bus network, the MBTA Silver Line or to Bostonians 'The T'.

I really like Boston, it’s definitely one of my favourite US cities that I've visited. I’ve been fortunate to travel there several times for photo work and personal journeys. It’s not a large city but I love its heritage which you don’t find in other US cities, in fact a couple of avenues remind me of Edinburgh.

A choice of mine is to catch the train from Boston South Station down to New York’s Penn Station, it's inexpensive and a great service. A couple of H Dogs and Samuel Adams from the food carriage is a must, being America they even have a TV in this carriage. It takes around 4 hours and beats flying any day, you travel through the countryside and towns of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York.

01 of 47,344 pictures
Early days when I was still a photographic assistant I got the opportunity to shoot some publicity pictures around Soho and a few gigs for the up and coming band Lightening Strike. Hailing from South London they resided in Soho and New York.
This was shot in the extremely tiny dressing room of the legendary Marquee Club on Wardour Street in Soho after they had just come off stage. It was so tiny I couldn’t include the lead singer - guitarist even when shooting on a ultra-wide angle lens
They also performed at the iconic CBGB’s in New York. They were post punk, rap’n’roll, extreme high energy, they were great to see and listen too.
To be in a revered place of rock’n’roll history was such a privilege and a very London thing.
The story of how I got to shoot them is too long to write about but extremely interesting and one of those chance meetings that could only occur in London.
The tiny dressing room at the Marquee Club became famous because countless musicians, roadies, and visitors wrote, carved, or left their signatures, graffiti, and band names across the walls and ceiling over the decades.

Here’s just a few of the very famous and rock royalty to grace the stage and that very tiny dressing room at the Marquee where my picture was shot.

1960s (Rock, R&B & Psychedelia):
• The Rolling Stones (played their first-ever gig here on July 12, 1962)
• The Who (famously held a 22-week Tuesday residency starting in late 1964)
• Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Cream, The Yardbirds, and The Animals
• David Bowie and Jimi Hendrix

1970s (Prog Rock & Early Metal): Queen, Black Sabbath, Genesis, Yes, and early punk acts.

1970s–1980s (Punk, New Wave & Heavy Metal):
• S*x Pistols, The Clash, The Jam, The Police, The Cure, Joy Division and U2
• Iron Maiden, Guns N' Roses, Metallica, and AC/DC

Later Years (1990s & 2000s): Nirvana, Oasis, The Libertines, and Biffy Clyro.

Who doesn’t like an Elly-Phant !

I was going through some old pictures and came across my African animals folder which I hadn’t viewed for some time.

This pic was shot in the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Game Reserve which is the oldest proclaimed game reserve in Africa. I was on a photo shoot for a leading UK travel company and it was many moons ago now.

What an amazing experience to be so close to these magnificent animals.
Moments before I shot this these two adolescence Bulls were playfully wrestling each other testing their strength, it’s what boys do !
Then the smaller younger of the two decided to see how brave we were by slowly advancing towards our vehicle with his trunk raised making a high pitched trumpet scream and spreading his ears wide to look very intimidating. There was no question he was the braver one with us making a fast retreat in reverse backwards up the track.

Busso 80 / MP No: 101 - Three mature Queensland Bottle Trees from central Queensland transported by road all the way over to our wonderful South West of WA and delivered to an extraordinary property in Yallingup.
I was commissioned by Mike of Margaret River Trees to cover the whole day from the trees arriving on three separate articulated lorries at the Yallingup property through to positioning and planting.
To accomplish this amazing venture there was a team of seven and a full day of hard work to complete the task at hand.
The day went well for www.margaretrivertrees.com with the planting, the client was extremely pleased with the results and I shot a great set of pictures, drone and stills.
Mission accomplished at the end of the day we cracked a few tinnies of Emu Export affectionately known as 'Bush Chooks’ here in the West to celebrate the achievement.

Busso 79 / MP No: 100 - A few more pictures from the Lines Family photo shoot.

It was a pleasure to recently shoot the Lines Family for their gathering in Busselton, they were coming together from Spain, London, Melbourne and Perth.
What a lovely family, photographing 13 members is never an easy task but the family with their sense of fun and love certainly helped to create some great pictures.
Here’s a few of those pictures from the shoot.

Judy Lines - Mother & Grandmother - Google Review
"I had contacted Geoff from Spain to arrange a family photo session in Busselton. He was really prompt at getting back to me and after having a discussion about what I wanted for our family he was more than happy to accommodate us on our visit.
I was a bit nervous as the day was overcast and we did the shoot between light drizzle. The photos turned out amazing. Geoff more than delivered on what I had wanted. The family were all really delighted with the photos he took and produced for us.
If we ever go back to Busselton and do this again I wouldn't hesitate in using Geoff once more.”
