At the most literal, Alleluia means “All hail to Him Who is.” This is a colour photograph taken inside the St. John’s Episcopal Church near Kula on Maui Hallelujah (הללויה) is a Hebrew word meaning “praise Yahweh”. It is an exclamation used chiefly in songs of praise or thanksgiving to God, and as an expression of gratitude or adoration.

These flags carry the famous symbol of the Australian Open tennis tournament, one of the world’s four major titles that constitute the coveted grand slam. It was a scorching hot January morning and the flags were being whipped by a hostile northerly breeze – away from me. Then for one brief moment, they filled my screen. The flags, on the corner of Punt Road, were several metres high but because I chose to shoot this from Platform One at Richmond station, I was shooting at almost the same height as the flags! I do not crop, enhance or post-edit my images in any way. Shot with a Pentax K100D, using a Sigma 70-300mm lens. Featured in FLAGS IN MOTION, May 2009. Featured in SPIRIT, August 2009.

I found this 45-star American flag in an old shed. The loose weave of the fabric indicates it was probably a parade flag, or souvenir, and would date to 1912 or earlier. The flag has a new home more befitting; framed and proudly displayed on the wall of my gallery. I did not realize while I was framing the shot, that the angle and the light had created a silhouette profile of President Abraham Lincoln.

You have to be at the right place at the right time. That’s the mantra of a photographer. This photograph proves it. Taken in Monument Valley, Arizona in May, 1999 (yes, it was taken with film). I’ve taken a lot of photographs that I really love, but this one is my favorite of all. Driving through Monument Valley was spectacular and we happened to stop at this location. I think there was a sign that said we weren’t supposed to be there, but it was worth the stop. / / Featured in: / ! #1 ARTISTS OF REDBUBBLE !/June, 2009 / STYLE! CLASS! ELEGANCE!

This stilt walker was part of yesterday’s Melbourne Cup parade. You want to know how tall they were? Jeepers, I’m guessing at least five metres tall. There was a fair breeze as they walked across Princes Bridge, so the “petals” of this elaborate flower costume kept blowing up around the stilt walker’s face. But because the gossamer-thin fabric was translucent, I shot a couple of frames of the person’s face through the material. Then, realising that lots of bystanders had their cameras ready, the performer pushed the petals down slightly, just enough for me to fire off this frame. I do not crop, enhance or post-edit my images in any way. Shot with a Pentax K100D, using a Sigma 70-300mm lens. F6.7, 1/500 sec, ISO 200, 300mm. 120-0982
PLEASE READ THIS. “This was the exact moment in time when the Power of almighty God and his great compassion and love, touched a dying Child”. Taken in Kaban Muslim village in Nov 2008. I was ministering in the village along with several mission staff, and a mother brought her almost dead child to me and asked for Prayer. As I held the still body of this little boy in my arms, my thoughts went straight to Jesus. I spoke to teh Mother and all around me that the only one that could save this child now as Jesus. I said I will pray in Jesus name. There were a few unhappy elders around, but decided to agree that I should pray in Jesus name, just to see what would Happen. This was the breakthrough. Kaban village is a Muslim village and under Sheria Law. I simply laid my hand on the child and commanded life and divine health to enter the child and that God would fill this child with his spirit. In Jesus name I prayed. Instantly the child because to move his arms and legs and began to cry. I told the mother Jesus had healed her son, and to take her son and breastfeed him as he was hungry. All saw the Power of Jesus and was witnessed by all in the village. Others then came and many were healed and some openly give their lives to Jesus. others followed us on our way to Ungwa/Fada village and received Jesus in private. Jesus is alive and works in and through his people. He loves you, and that is a fact.
