I live in beautiful Australia.
I'm new to photography and what others bring here to share inspires me daily. I'd love to have the opportunity to do photography full time and make a living from it. You have to make time to dream.

If you have added me as a contact please don't be offended if I don't add you. I like to keep my contact list manageable therefore I do not add many new contacts to my list. I love to visit and support my contacts and I just don't have the time for too many. These days most regrettably I have little time for flickr. Please do not add me as a contact if your stream has questionable or offensive/illegal images and content I will most certainly block and report you.

As for everyone else thank you for taking the time to visit my stream. I hope it has inspired you.

Please do not download my photographs or use them in any way without my written permission.
My images are protected by copyright. I would not steal from you so please don't steal my work.

    "It does not require many words to say how much I'm impressed by her photography: always fresh and uncommon, sometimes funny, sometimes food for thought. Thanks for sharing the world through your eyes, Olive!"

    "OK, let me see now, Olive has been my contact now for 8 months, I just checked. In fact I took the opportunity to have another wade back through her stream to remind me about her work here. Yes, I must say very impressive is Olive with her work she produces, just take a look - always an interesting photograph to be seen when you see a post pop up on your contacts list headed ‘Olive’. And you click the icon and have a look and it always brings pleasure; a beach scene, children playing, a beautiful flower, a landscape or great sky, and even sometimes we get a rare treat of the lovely Olive herself which is always a treat. So my friend, thank you for the last 8 months of pleasure you have brought me and some fun along the way too. I wish you and your family happiness and hope to remain a good contact for at least as long again. Thanks Olive, you're a star."

    "Well, as I write this testimonial on the first anniversary of Olive's Flickr debut, I'm overcome by adjectives. I could carry on with all the usual about how talented and creative Olive is, about how her images inspire and challenge a wannabe photographer, etc, etc. But if you are here reading this, you probably already know all that! To me, what makes Olive such a fantastic Flickrer is her warmth, encouragement and her appreciation of warped attempts at humour!!!

    Really looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us over the next 12 months Olive. You're a true gem and a great Flickr friend. Thank-you."

    "When I first saw one of myolives beautiful evocative images, I knew two things.The first was that she is a very talented photographer and the second was that I wanted to see more. I added her to my contacts and I have been continually delighted by her wonderful images.
    She is both a great artist and photographer. I feel fortunate to have her as my Flickr friend.
