There is a significance to this image set. Last year and early this year I was very sick. I am all better now, but for a long time I was, well no easy way to say it really, pissing a huge amount of blood. This night I was in so much pain. and should not have been there really. But as with a lot of images it now has a lot of meaning for me, as I was pushing through that pain to create.
Although looking quite simple, this was quite a complex shoot. Obviously we are out in water. about 1 metre deep. This obviously adds a new dimension to spinning an accurate orb. The method I used worked quite well. I took a pvc tube with me and at the site cut it to length so that when i pushed it down into the soft lake bed the white tip was sitting just below the surface of the water but visible. This gave me a point to rotate around and use as my guide. I always spin by hand so this was awesome to get such a tight result.
Then of course my trusty, and amazing LED LEnser P7qc was hitting the tree.
Great night out. Cheers Ben (www.earthart.net.au) for the night, it was awesome man!
Peace, Denis

This place was heavenly. You'll get a better idea of the effect at full size. If you'd like to learn more about the Sun Tunnels, click here
would make a great postcard, eh?

This idea could only work because of the lightness of pumice stones. A hole was made in them to thread them onto a green stick which was bent into a half circle in the shallow water. The photograph was taken in calm early morning conditions with the camera near water level. The location was Whanganui Bay at Lake Taupo, New Zealand.

The Cathedral Vegetable of Oltre il Colle is a typical example of realization in art-nature, call more properly from the experts of field Land art or Earth art.
This type of artistic expression has had origin in years '70 in the United states and wanted to represent a experience of creative type that, in the within of the conceptual art, took part modifying the aspect of the landscape making use of materials in all natural and rather of the place where the work was completed, or with temporary and not definitive participations and therefore always in the total ecological respect of the nature.
The works realized in art-nature (Land art or Earth art) have the characteristic to be born, to grow, to age and to die with the same materials that compose to them: the Cathedral vegetable of Oltre il Colle will employ approximately 15 years in order to become completed and then it will live, partially to die and will be renewed with the rhythms sets up from the natural cycles of the Arera mount and the beechwood that it will go to compose it with 42 plants.
Oh, what is that below me? Some kind of spiral out of rocks. I don't know what is it for or why is it here, but it is what it is. It might be to do some rituals or some kind of festivals are happening here, but I cannot confirm that. I just saw that it looks great and this is all you need, the picture must look good to you and then will come criticism or some compliments.
Water Cycle 3
This sculpture was made by forming a semi-circle with sticks pushed into the sand in a beach lagoon on the West Coast of Auckland, New Zealand. When the wind dropped and the water was still the reflection made it appear as a full circle.
This sphere is woven from fibrous roots that were exposed by the winds on the sandhills of the West Coast Auckland, New Zealand. Photographed on a rock in warm evening light above the surf.

I spent an afternoon at the Painted Hills in Oregon back in March of 2006. It was overcast most of the time, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the wonderful scenery. Then for about twenty minutes, the sun came through the clouds and the colours of the hills came to life.
The performance involved the artist moving in a slow, contemplative improvisation, while releasing colored inks from a water carrier ~ body sculpture, onto papers arranged on the floor in front of the audience present, and intimate, within a few feet of the mindful, concentrated attention, performative action.

Strips of native flax held in different size circles with a matagouri thorn were then sewn to each other with flax fibres to form a larger circle. It was photographed in several ways. Here it is hung airily against the sky and by chance a pair of paradise ducks that flew by can be seen in the distance in one of the circles. The location is Lake Wanaka, New Zealand.

This big worn log is beside the lake at Whanganui Bay in Lake Taupo, New Zealand. The spring wild flowers were used to encircle the log. The shade casts a bluish light which accentuates the colour of the flowers.
Made of shells collected on the beaches of the West Coast near Auckland, New Zealand and because the shell itself is a spiral form the spiral sculpture is a micro and macro expression of the idea: a spiral within a spiral.
