Signed certificate of authenticity.

This composite photographic image is one of many from the The Un-Scenes Project. All elements in the image have been photographed by myself over the years and compiled in photoshop to create a new slightly surreal environment for the subject, generally somewhere you wouldn't expect to find it, an un-scene if you like. All images belong to a 3 part themed series in a 16:9 format, have a white border and include a certificate which tells the story and inspiration behind each image.
The title of the print is located bottom centre of white border which can either be included or not when framing.
Each print has a digital signature bottom corner of the image.
The print has a digital signature bottom right hand side of image.

This image is one of three from the Birdsville Series.
A recent road trip to Birdsville gave me a new appreciation as to how vast our state of Queensland is. There is a LOT of nothing, so when something quirky pops up it’s definitely time to pull over for a photo and stretch your legs.
People did and still do live in very isolated places in outback Queensland. I wanted these images to reflect that isolation and the sense of humour required to live out here.
The desaturating of the vivid blue skies gives more attention to the subjects and the toning adds to the aging of the subjects.

Desert Sculpture Garden
Love the quirkiness of the idea of even needing a lawn mower out here in this harsh dry country. It’s the outbacks expression of art, built by its people.
I added the house to make it a complete home with all the “modern appliances”.
It looks like a place where a Jack and Ivy live. There’d be a couple of beach chairs under an umbrella out the back where they’d sit of an afternoon enjoying the serenity.

A lone stone building stands in the desert bush scrubland and a single dead tree to its left is home to some pink and grey galahs, having a rest on its branches as well as a couple on top of the buildings tin roof.  Background is a dark stormy sky.A crackle of yellow and white Cockatoos are in a frenzy surrounding an old stone boarded up church as a dark sky background says a big storm is looming. A lone stone building, without a roof,  stands in the desert bush scrublands  serving as a resting place for a crackle of black cockatoos. There is also a frenzy of them flying beyond as a dark sky signals a storm coming. A jumble of retro architecture is piled up in the shape of the Mont Saint Michel and placed onto the a low tide beach scape. The colour palette is  pastel with a summer blue sky as a background.
