This collection presents a breathtaking journey through diverse terrestrial biomes, reimagining the raw beauty of our planet through a synthetic lens. From the ethereal golden mists of a waking forest and the crystalline clarity of alpine rivers to the jagged, volcanic scars of primordial lands and the vibrant, sun-drenched cathedrals of coral reefs. Each environment is a study in light, texture, and atmospheric depth, blending hyper-realistic detail with a touch of the sublime. These landscapes explore the intersection of classical nature photography aesthetics and the boundless possibilities of modern generative tools, offering a contemplative look at worlds both familiar and imagined.

Amazon by August Karl Edward Kiss (1802-1865)
Original bronze flanks the outdoor steps of the Altes Museum at Museum Island, Spree River, Germany. Reduced copy of the original donated to the Botanic Garden in 1867 following a public subscription.
TOPICS OF THE DAY, The South Australian Advertiser, Tuesday 28 May 1867, p. 2.: "Some time ago we noticed a collection of statuary, imported by Messrs. Myer & Co. Not having disposed of all the articles, these gentlemen had resolved upon shipping "The Amazon," by Kiss, to Melbourne, to the regret of many, who hoped to see such a specimen of fine art kept in the colony. Accordingly a number of gentlemen have promised subscriptions for the purchase of "The Amazon," with a view of placing it in the Botanic Gardens. Mr. Commissioner Hamilton has consented to act as Treasurer, and it is expected the necessary amount, £45, will soon be collected." - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/28797900

California dams are constantly being decommissioned for various reasons. Who is responsible for destroying the hard work Californian's have contributed to the watershed? Come along with us for a California Sun Outdoor Adventure as we explore why the dams are being removed and who is responsible, and worst yet, who is paying for it.
An agreement was reached regarding the removal of Copco 1, Copco 2, Iron Gate Dam and the J.C. Boyle Dam all along the Klamath River. Has Klamath River Dam been removed? Not yet and we are here to create a movement to stop the removal of our dams in order to preserve the current habitats and benefits of our dams.
​We challenge the narrative that the removal of the dams will be worth the money and effort in terms of ecological conservation. We reject the actions and question the agenda of those parties under agreement.

On Sunday 9 September three Mosman households gave a tour of their homes to celebrate Sustainable House Day. The tour, which was part of Council’s Living Environment Series, was a huge success with participants having the opportunity to learn about solar panels, water harvesting, composting, sustainable building materials, edible gardens and more.
The tour highlighted how easy it is to make your home more sustainable. Whether you live in a unit, townhouse or free standing dwelling there is always something you can do to reduce your ecological footprint.
The homes on the tour included a Federation period residence in the Orlando Conservation Area, a free standing home built in 1976 and a strata title unit in the heart of Mosman. Although all the homes were very different, the common theme was that they had all been retrofitted to become more sustainable.
Participants were amazed at the amount of food that can be grown in a small backyard, the amount of money that can be saved through energy efficiency and the creative ways to capture water for re-use. The tour was part of a national event which sees hundreds of sustainable homes open each year.
It was an extremely inspirational day with participants going home with new ideas and enthusiasm to make their own homes and lives more sustainable.
