Recent Release Sea Sand and BirdsAfter spending years photographing wildlife and snowy landscapes, followed by being forever on the move getting to Australia’s far flung lighthouses, I was looking for an easy-going project. Brooms Head Beach, which is close to home looked like it met my criteria. I decided to photograph the sand and where the sea and sand intermingled. I then added the local birds, preferable when they were flying to provide variety. Bird wings are wonderful subjects. As I’m already considered a little odd photographing sand would confirm this. Then some family friends dropped in for a visit. On arriving home Jenny asked seven-year-old Ingrid what she thought of Ibbo. “Ibbo: Well he’s funny but a little bit crazy”. That gave me the impetus to proceed. I divided the location into four shooting zones: Brooms Head Beach north of the Cakora Lagoon I called Dogs Beach, because my doggy assistants Tessie and Bella were welcome there. The southern part of the beach and Cakora Rocks were called the People’s Beach. The third was the headland and the north end of South (Sandon) Beach. The “studio” in my back yard was the fourth. The neat thing about Dogs beach was the outlet from Cakora Lagoon, which flows across the beach. This provided still water on the sand. It also meant that the beach had a convex surface, which resulted in various three dimensional patterns in the sand. The black rutile also highlighted the sand’s surface, creating different images.
