Alien Light ©billpurvis

Inspired by Stephen Shore.
Movement, shape, shadow, reflections,
colour and light, and an exploration
of the image within the frame.
The ebb and flow, the wind in the rushes, the changing light,
the detritus on the river bed.
40 still frames on one canvas create for a moment a 3D
kaleidoscope.
This is  re-edited Gif from 2016.

This is a large file.
Please allow time for all the frames to load and the Gif will then run smoothly.
This is not an animation but a sequence of still photographs.

Very happy with this capture yesterday, although the shutter speed could have been a little faster.
I used the back focus button on my Nikon D90.

A Kookaburra returning to it's nest with a meal of a skink lizard.

and on the same walk yesterday a pair of Galahs Necking.

Torrens River - Obahn Busway - Flood - September 2016

Torrens River - Obahn Busway - Flood - September 2016

A photograph taken at about 1AM of the Torrens Weir.
A flood alert was issued for the river.
We tracked the river to the weir in Adelaide CBD.
The photograph is a 4sec hand held exposure braced against a rail.


Leo frolicking beside the flooded Torrens River.

A slightly slower frame rate. The speed of the bus is relative to the duck preening it's feathers, the speed of the cyclist and the flow of water. There is a missing frame coz the transfer rate was too slow or I lifted my finger momentarily?? hence the cyclist jumps ahead.
There are 34 frames in the sequence. Oh and the bus jumps ahead too which would help explain the accelerated speed

Wrappers - naturally

 text&images©billpurvis
This is my favorite  work.
Its presented in lolly-pop style.
A discarded wrapper proclaims  'No Artificial Colours', a  contradiction.
The book documents pollution in an urban landscape, discarded wrappers and
ephemeral cast-offs, with a hint of the quirky and humorous.
