Western Australian Australian Institute of Professional Photography 2014 Awards
Well a couple of weeks ago we had the Western Australian Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP) Awards... and I was fortunate to have achieved five silver awards in the Illustrative and Landscape sections.
The award winnings are the ones with the silver award at the bottom right of the print. I almost didn't enter this year as I was still very unwell in post surgery recovery. Glad I did now.
City Series II || Opal Mosaic
This photograph intrigues me. The combination of colour, intensity and form reminds me of the combination of blueish Opals, and mosaic tiles. I'm very intrigued as to whether you like this one or not. Interestingly I haven't been able to pick 100% what you, my friends, like in this series, and by that I mean how many people stop,view and like it.
I love the high degree of complexity in this images, that demonstrate both a high degree of order, as well as chaotic organic-like forms.
I dont often talk about what I see or what captured me to talk the photograph but this time I wanted to let you know what I saw or rather what intrigued me. The first thing that I noticed was the highly structured black window frames contrasted by the horizon light blue/purple windows. Next I loved both the complex reflection pattern that looked in some panes as highly structured and regular next to organic like curved reflections, with different strips of horizontal colour.
For me, I seek or rather experience photographs or get drawn to them, often I'm not sure why, its more an intuition or feeling I get about them.
Anyways enough prattling. I hope you like this image. Enjoy.

City Series II || Crisp Colour Pane
Todays post is something a little different in the City Series. Whilst the subject matter is the same, I have 'developed' this image slightly differently. You may not be aware but I am very drawn to colour in my images... yeah, ok, so thats not a big secret... but this image is awesome because of the vigour, liveliness and vitality with out being over saturated. Beautiful and complimentary tones of graphical and architectural forms. Enjoy.
City Series II || Ruby Dreams
Strong, passionate and potent. Look into the eyes of Ruby Dreams.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
City Series II || Sky Zebras
Two 'zebra' pieces from different parts of the city. This one I like because of the boldness of the clear blue sky and the patterning of the 'zebras'. Enjoy.
City Series II || Zebras in the city...
City Series II: Zebras in the city.
Something a little different this time, its actually a colour image, but it is black and white.

City Series II || Bold Beige Boxes
I missed out on Tuesday's post. My apologies. However back on track.
This one is all blues, brown and beige. Something a little more geometrical than colourful.
Enjoy.

City Series II || Manhattan Arctic Views
Manhattan Arctic Views.
I love the 'freshness' of the colour and tones of this image.
The strong blues and whites and 'electrified' lines through the image.
Enjoy.
City Series II || Bronzed Dawn
As the sun rises over Manhattan, Bronzed Dawn unveils itself.
Full of life, colour and form.
Fleeting tempting views that disappear.
Glory formed unveiled Bronzed Dawn.
Enjoy.

City Series II || Sunset Pool
This photograph has become one of my favourites from the City Series II.
I like the tones and colour that captures the setting light contrasted bu the clean and crisp greens and blues. A pool of slow moving water, with the hint of a change of the day on the way.
Enjoy. Sunset Pool.

City Series II || Blue Hatches
A complex interplay of lines, colour and form.
I love the blue of the reflections with scattered cream lights showing from the inside of the building.
Just out of interest this shot was taken immediately before Korner Kalidescope. Just goes to show that a few steps one way can change the view and photograph radically.
I hope you enjoy Blue Hatches.

City Series II || Korner Kalidescope
Something a little abstract today.
The roughness of the stone work, contrasting the smooth slick surface of the glass... colours reflection tones and hues across multiple surfaces. Enjoy.

City Series II || Green Water Tall
Tonight's image is one of my favourites from the new City Series II.
A strong image, full of verve in colour and form... a signature.
Photographed in Manhattan, New York in 2013.
Enjoy.

City Series II || Lavender Lanes
Glistening and glimmering,
Reflecting of the surface,
Lavender lanes,
Techno hydrospace.
Enjoy.

City Series II || Polar View
This commences the start of a new city series, City Series II.
Captured in Manhattan, New York, I love this image for the green and whites, with the dark hatching. It reminds me of a cold frosty winters day in Manhattan.

City Series I || Cafe Mermaid
Swimming through the ocean,
Having a caffeine craving,
Getting chilly could be brazen,
Ahh, cafe goodness, a blessed haven.
Enjoy.

City Series I || Cafe Blu
A glimpse, a glimmer, a fleeting view,
A capture, a gift, an image with you,
A vista and detail, a view thats new,
A moment now passed, Cafe Blu.
Enjoy.

City Series I | Contemplation
This image is something slightly different in the City Series I. It causes me to slow down, think, reflect and contemplate.
A journey commences.... Contemplation.
Enjoy.
City Series I | Light Shard Shutter
I like this one as the white panels reflecting back are like shutters. I'd be interested in what you think about it?
Enjoy.
