Yes it’s that time of years again. I’ve put together three new calendars for 2010 and made them available through my Redbubble site.
The first 2010 calendar is called “Shades“. It contains a selection of monochrome and heavily desaturated images from my redbubble portfolio. You can view each page of the calendar in greater detail or purchase one here.


The second 2010 calendar is simply called “Green“. It’s a selection of my images from nature including landscapes, seascapes and foliage shots where the colour green is a predominant influence. You can view each page of the “Green” 2010 calendar in greater detail or purchase a copy of the calendar here.


The third 2010 calendar is titled “Water in Motion” and features images from my collection where the movement of water plays an important role in the composition and feel of each piece. A detailed view of each page of the calendar is available here.


Would you prefer a customized calendar? I can put together a customized calendar for you using your choice of images from my Redbubble portfolio. Simply choose 13 images, that’s one for the front cover and one for each month of the year, and email me with your selection to jim.worrall@gmail.com .
I’ll put the calendar together for you, making it available on Redbubble and send you a link to it. Easy !!

Early morning in the forest of ferns.
As the sun rises higher in the sky, beams of sunlight break through the forest canopy spotlighting details in the foliage.

Surviving the devastating fires of last summer, fresh new growth springs from the charred base of a tree fern.
In the background, the blackened trunks of trees appear as dark vertical bands, many of them sprouting new lush green clusters of foliage.

An image taken late afternoon at Toora wind farm, in Victoria, Australia.
I decided not to include the usual “towers and propellers” that normally grace images from this area.
I was particularly impressed by the serene silhouette image of the cow on the hill.

Somewhat ravaged by the ongoing drought, the lake has receded but Bonnie Doon still has some wonderful rolling green hills at this time of year.

Early morning images from Challicum Hills wind farm near Ballyrogan.
It’s hard to visualize exactly how large these mills are until you get close to them.

After a long pre-dawn walk along tracks through the tops of the coastal cliffs I arrived at The Pinnacles in time to see the sunrise. Access to the Pinnacles beach area here is via a steep (slippery when wet) track running down the face of the cliff area.
Unfortunately it turned out to be a dud sunrise so there wasn’t much colour in the sky but after getting down to the beach the view of the rock formations was wonderful. An interesting feature of this beach is the large round rocks covering the ground, great for photos but a challenge to navigate at times.

“Changes” was taken on a foggy autumn morning on farmland in Cranbourne, Australia.
The lush green grass is such a contrast to the dry barren earth found on this spot during summer.

It’s a wonderful lush place to visit, it’s only real downside being the local leeches.

This image was taken at Sorrento beach shortly after the sun had dropped below the horizon.
The long exposure (30 seconds) smooths out the motion of the waves and gives the ocean a smooth, almost cloud like appearance. The pink hue is a remnant of the sunset.

This sunset image taken at Blairgowrie beach, Australia, turned out to be much softer than I expected but I like the final result. The softness of the image is due to a build up of ocean salt spray on the lens filter.

A sunset taken at Blairgowrie beach, Australia.
I never get sick of visiting this ocean coastline along the Mornington Peninsula. The rocky landscape remains as a constant, however the continually changing sky and tide never fail to create a new captivating scene.
Generally the best time to visit this area are when the sunset corresponds with a low tide.
