Things That Attract My Eye – Part 13

24/03/202424/03/2024 by communicatingcreatively, posted in Photography

Our recent short trip down to Greenwell Point, near Nowra recently offered up a host of different photographic opportunities, as well as sketching and painting ones.

Here are a few more of the photographic ones that I found. 🙂

Crookhaven Heads – The ruined Lighthouse is up the slope to the left.

Point Perpendicular Lighthouse – Jervis Bay

I have more to post from trip. It is/was such a quiet, relaxing trip (we did it outside of school holidays). I would highly recommend it if your are looking (as we were) for a relaxing, short getaway.

Till next time!

At the end of February/early March, my Wife, Susan and I escaped for 5 nights/6 days down to Greenwell Point which is roughly 2 hours drive away from where live. It is located just past Nowra which approximately, 176 kilometres or 109 miles from Sydney.

It is a beautiful, quiet spot and was even quieter as it wasn’t school holidays.

I’ll be posting more images from our short trip over time however, here is a small selection of abstract images of subjects that ‘attracted my eye’ on this trip.

Till next time!

The images below were taken last week when my Wife, Susan & went into the City (Sydney) for lunch to celebrate our 27th Wedding Anniversary.

After a long lunch, we took a casual stroll around Circular Quay just relaxing and enjoying the views.

“Seeing Double” – The Sydney Harbour Bridge reflected in the windows
of the Sydney Opera House.

“Mosaic” – Reflections in an office building at Circulay Quay. Taken from the Cahill Expressway.

“Design” – Part of the large sandstone tiles at the front of the Sydney Opera House.

Beauty is all around us. We just need to be ‘aware.’

Till next time!

Things That Attract My Eye – Part 8

This recent collection features clouds, cacti and a few other things. The cacti flowers are from my own plants and (as with no doubt many people), clouds have always fascinated me.

I recall as a child, often laying on the grass, looking up at the clouds as they drifted on by, slowly altering shape. It was and remains, a wonderful way to relax. Remember to pop on some sunscreen though.

Till next time!

I’ve often said that walking is a great way to clear the mind, do some exercise and I always come up with a few ideas, whether they be for our business, a poem, a painting, sketch etc.

It’s also a way to sharpen our senses and awareness. There is so much beauty around is, natural or man-made, and on my walks, I love to capture this. Here are some more examples of ‘things that attract my eye.’
