Framed 36 x 36" (91 x 91cm) - Rainbow Glow (Limited Edition - Exploring Nature's Way Collection)
Edition 1 of 20 in the Limited Edition Exploring Nature's Way Collection
36 x 36” (91 x 91cm) - Printed on premium Ilford Gold Fibre Gloss paper. Framed in premium oak timber with non-reflective glass.
One of the really special parts of the Darwin coastline to me is the healthy mangrove habitat that protects our land. I have spent endless hours exploring and photographing Darwin’s beautiful mangroves (and yet somehow after over 10 years shooting in Darwin, I still find new ones!).
This lone mangrove is on the northern side of East Point, an outlier from a thick mangrove community that eventually runs alongside Dickward Drive. I love this mangrove - the shape, its slight lean and sprawling roots make it a picture-perfect mangrove!
Capturing a special image here is not as simple as 1, 2 ,3 and I think this image is a great example of how much planning (and failed attempts) can go into creating one image. This mangrove is best photographed at sunrise - one of the favourite times for sandflies, which annihilate me within seconds of arriving here. The tide needed to be at a particular level - any higher and the mangrove is too far away, and any lower and I’m walking too far on muddy, slippery rocks in the pitch black (which don’t look good in photos either!). The rainbow is just a perfect addition. One of those times when research, perseverance and effort is combined with a little bit of luck!
The Top End is a unique landscape, and the aim of this collection is to showcase what we have to offer - even to those exploring “Nature’s Way” on a tight time frame. This collection has been compiled in conjunction with Louise’s coffee table book - “The Wonder of Nature’s Way” - a 200+ page book intended to dig deeper into the habitats and ecosystems explored in the region.
