This composite photographic image is one of many from the The Un-Scenes Project. All elements in the image have been photographed by myself over the years and compiled in photoshop to create a new slightly surreal environment for the subject, generally somewhere you wouldn't expect to find it, an un-scene if you like. All images belong to a 3 part themed series in a 16:9 format, have a white border and include a certificate which tells the story and inspiration behind each image.
The title of the print is located bottom centre of white border which can either be included or not when framing.
Each print has a digital signature bottom corner of the image.
This image is one of three from "Aussie Shacks on a Hill" series.
Inspiration for these ones came from the sheds themselves. I wanted them to stand out on their own, flaws and all. A classic of most rural Australian properties is the humble shed. They have weathered storms, sheltered farm animals, and housed an eclectic mix of treasured belongings for years on end.
Where would we be without “the shed”. “Put it in the shed, we might need it one day”…words muttered by just about every household.
Background images are all from Nerada, QLD.
Hidden Gem
Occupying the small flat top of this hill, sits on old rundown timber cottage and garage. Sitting inside this garage is a hidden gem from yesteryear, awaiting its big day out, an annual event down in the village below. It’s a “Bugnotti” a 1930’s one of a kind by Bugatti-Delahaye. Basically an antique batmobile sitting right here behind these doors. The owner sits quietly on his chair on the verandah, contemplating how many millions he may get for it, but maybe he will hang onto it yet for a few more years.
House from near Cardwell, QLD, garage from Naseby, NZ.
