For my final photo i have chose the one that i feel best represents me and my photography and thus has become the symbol for my work.

The Ascension was taken completely on the spur of the moment.My house was been renovated and with it came new carpets.After the old carpets were pulled up and chucked out underneath were beautiful white dusty floorboards.I had my breakfast one morning and afterwards was walking upstairs when i saw the open door into the room and amazing sunlight coming through.A moment of inspiration struck me,i ran to get a chair from the kitchen,composed the shot,set the timer and after maybe three attempts i had the shot.

Changing to black and white in photoshop,very slight cropping and adjustment of the light levels and i had my photo.

It has become one of my favourite shots just due to the simplicity of the photo and what it represents.

For me 'The Ascension' is all about leaving the troubles,worries,problems and constraints of the physical world behind and ascending into the next life with all knowledge and complete compassion for all species.It is not a religious photo but a spiritual one.Free from the restraint that religions place on us.

The fact that i'm in the shot is not vanity.I in fact do not like to be photographed but for this sort of artistic shot i served my purpose.Besides there was no one else home and inspiration doesn't last forever.

Meet Alison, Daniel and NipNip.
Alison is Kingsley's daughter.
I knocked on her door and she invited me in to her home. They are renovating and I stopped them from doing their work, which I felt bad about. Alison was not bothered by my interruption at all and she was happy to tell me her story.
She and her husband bought this old 2 storey pub in Terowie about a year before and they were now at the stage of ripping up the floorboards and painting. They are hoping to bring the building back to it's former glory, but not as a pub - it is their family home.
There is a wonderful mural in the former front bar, painted 'for beers' by a local.
They have this little dog - NipNip. He was attacked by some other local dogs and left paralysed. Kingsley made a trolley for him and he is active and mobile once more.
Alison also has a sulphur crested cockatoo (Heidi) and a galah (Russell) living inside. They are naughty and loud and full of character. They destroy her furniture but she said they'll replace the furniture before they replace the birds.
I loved meeting this family, they are warm, welcoming and generous people, so typical of those living in the Australian outback. Thanks for inviting me into your home.
