A Swan Feeding

Here’s a photo of a swan feeding. I feel as though I stuffed up on the focus, but overall I think the photo is neat. Will need to do better next time, however. I hope you enjoy.

Black Swan in the Rain

This was one of the swans I saw on my birthday. It was keeping an eye on me, which I imagine was due to making sure I didn’t get too close to its child. I like how still it appears … Continue reading

Peter Gabriel: Fourteen Black Paintings

This was slowly written over three listens. I was aiming to avoid imagery (I think) and I mostly succeeded. Still, this doesn’t say too much about the song, though maybe that’s okay. I hope you enjoy. — Woodwind comes in, … Continue reading

Serpentine Neck

When I originally thought of posting this picture (a few weeks ago now), the name for it (which was similar to the current one) popped into my head. Not too sure as to why I haven’t completely changed the name. … Continue reading

Anhinga novaehollandiae

Here’s a few shots of an Australian Darter preening itself. I took these on Thursday. When I first saw it, I thought it was a cormorant. I like the angles of its head and neck in these photos. I think … Continue reading

The Australian Aboriginal Flag

Well, technically, it’s an artistic depiction of the Australian Aboriginal Flag, but still. I think that the flag is quite a powerful image in a lot of ways. I won’t go into details about it, but I will say that … Continue reading
