A client from Melbourne had just bought a Stoney Creek print at my gallery (Paul Hancock 🙂). I asked if he had some time and I then showed him and his partner a print (now framed). As I showed him the print he told me he had goosebumps and showed me the hairs standing up on his arms. It was quite a special moment I can tell you.
I have always struggled to find a name for this image. For 6 years I kept it hidden away until I decided two weeks ago to get it printed in this format and size.
48 hrs later and the name Resonance was born and let me tell you that without Paul and his experience the name might not have presented itself.

Strictly limited edition of 100 prints with no variations in any form at any time.

Gary the Golden Orb has been keeping me company at KHM for the past 2 months. Today however he disappeared from his usual web and I thought he was gone. 10 minutes later I saw him hiding in my rainforest Fig Tree photo. Maybe he approves of my images 😄

I believe that your own belief in you and your goals can be manifested if you would do what it is you love doing for free.

There is no shortcut to your own or any other kind of "success". It takes years to hone your passion into a skill. If anyone tells you otherwise they are a You Tuber or "influencer "...

Everyday doing what you love is an opportunity to fail, learn, and repeat again and again. Because when it's something that matters to you you will never see it as failure. Only an opportunity to do better, on your terms, at your own pace.

❤️ ❤️

This afternoon, after placing brand new prints from Chris Rummeny's Shop Garricks Camera House in Cairns Central (one day I will work out how to connect and tag all properly) I finally "bumped" into Crystalbrook Bailey to set up the exhibition.

Hope to see old and new faces there for a chin wag and celebration of all things photography and Far North Qld. Please see details below
