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

Flying Foxes Over Bridge

This is a photo I took a few weeks ago. Two of my housemates and I went to a lookout near Gladesville Bridge so I could attempt to capture it during sunset. I had a feeling the sunset would be … 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

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

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

Ibis in the Air II

The same ibis as the one in the last shot. This shot has more apparent motion to it. It feels more like an ibis in flight. It, like most birds, has a certain grace and power to it. If you … Continue reading
