January - Bellerive


So as you may or may not know, I have been producing desk calendars of my photos for a couple of years now. Mostly for my friends, family and co-workers.
The question I am most asked about them through the year is "where was this taken?"

For me there is more to a photo than simply where but also why. So in attempt to share what I see when I seee my photos I have decided to start this blog. Each month I hope to write about the picture of the month. If you don't have my calendar and would like one, just leave me a comment.

So, to Bellerive and the beautiful sunset on the water. I was visiting Tasmania oddly enough in January a few years ago to watch the cricket. Our first afternoon in Bellerive I took a walk around the shore to stretch my legs and soak up the atmosphere.

I took many photos of the boats and the sea birds but this one of the sun on the water really jumped out at me.

When I was choosing my photos this year I wanted to show wide angles that showed goals in the distance. The background of this shot has the shadowy silhouettes of a port and I think this contrasts nicely with the dark, sharp rocks in the foreground.

Perhaps things are rocky now but across the water is something exciting and unseen.

My Hobby...

So no comments yet... and probably not a single person has read this...
Now it seems I have to find something that themes my blog... Something I can link to labels that people will search for.

Perhaps I'll talk about photogrpahy... it's a hobby of mine that I hope I can get better at taking as well as editing on the computer. My main subjects are the flowers and birds in my garden. I'm trying to perfect the quick capture with the birds and insects. Sometimes I get it... others I don't and thats the joy of it I suppose.

Coming into Autumn now and I can't wait fr my Camellias and Gardenias to emerge but the Roses are keeping me happy for now.

I'll get some pics posted once I can bear to share them with the world!

Hope I get a reader soon!
