Recent real estate work.............

I have been doing some high end real estate photography work which has been a nice change of pace and skill set which I am enjoying. I hope to get some more work this year to keep me busy as it has been an awful year with no workshops or tours happening which is income I rely on. I di a big property in Strathalbyn recently from the shearing shed paddocks to the house yard and all interiors. The owners were wrapped with the images and video footage that I captured and it is now showing on VIMEO. Check it out under my video blog section there is a link to it and all my other videos.

I have recently finished judging the Amateur section of the international competition Epsom Pano Awards for which I have been a judge in previous years. Over a week I trawled through a few thousand images. There were lots of fantastic images and it was really tough to judge round 2 for the very best shots. I really hope if you entered that you were happy with your results but please keep in mind it really is subjective and don't be disheartened if you did not do as well as you hoped. Just have a look at the other high scorers and aim to do better next year.

If your after an image of animals post fires I have a large collection made up of koalas kangaroos and echidnas which I am currently selling for various publications across the world. There is a small selection online in the animal antics gallery but for the full selection please contact me directly via email.

thankyou Julie

This shot of mine taken back in the 2019 bush fire on Kangaroo Island which won the Big Picture Awards in 2019 has been stolen time and time again now and misused and used without my permission. Since these bush fires It has been used on go fund me pages and newsletters chasing money and facebook posts again chasing donations. My images are not to be used for monetry gain of any sort unless its being paid for and under a licence. I have been abused contacting people and pages in the past few weeks to take it down or cop a bill for usage. I doubt you would appreciate your possessions being taken without permission and misused so why is it expected that I should be happy about people using my images for what ever purpose they want without my permission or payment just because I won an award for it and its been strewn all over the internet and because its of a bushfire. I dont know about you but I expect to get paid for my work and its hard enough to make a living out of landscape photography as it is but this copyright theft and peoples attitude has got to stop. I now use a copyright company to help me chase down images that have been stolen which takes the pressure and stress from me. So if you have me shot I suggest you take it down because we are on the war path at the moment and if we can get Sky News to pay up we can get you too.

This image has been purchased for multiple uses by WWF Australia who understand that payment is necessary to photographers for their images to make money for their fund. Thank you WWF.
