Legs and Wings

I think I was really lucky with this photo. I really like the clarity in this shot as it helps with the focus on the rock dove’s form. I think the clarity also helps to make the rock dove feel … Continue reading

Gull Over River

This is an image of a silver gull flying over Cooks River. I don’t think that there’s anything particularly special about this photo, but I do like that it carries a sense of stillness more than it does a sense … Continue reading

Three Mistletoe Birds

Also known as Dicaeum hirundinaceum. This is what I feel was a rather lucky shot. Only able to capture it due to my partner noticing the one standing on the top of the statue. I think I kept looking back … Continue reading

Cockatrio

Three cockatoos I saw a few weeks ago whilst walking home. I think this photo is about space and form. I do like that the cockatoos have different positions (wing-wise) to each other. I also like how small they feel … Continue reading

Movement Through Air

The same flock of rock doves as this one. I think this photo gives a strong impression of motion and form. I really like how there’s both the shapes of the individual rock doves, as well as the overall flock. … Continue reading

A Flock of Rock Doves

This was taken a few weeks ago now whilst walking around the neighbourhood. It’s not often I get to see a flock of birds flying around; especially when it comes to the way these rock doves were moving. They would … Continue reading

Japan, Then Burwood Dream

I’d flown into Japan and I was wandering around somewhere. I was talking to either one of my brothers or a former housemate; I’m not sure. We were talking about visiting a mountain that I remember dreaming of a few … Continue reading

Rock Dove in Motion

A photo of a Rock Dove flying from one location to another. It was likely over a short distance in which the rock dove was flying. I probably could’ve gotten a better shot. I think the contrast might be a … Continue reading
