Adventures of the Red Shoe Tourist

This continuing body of work references the joiners of David hockney. It commenced one year when I was tutoring a workshop at Victoria's 'Great Ocean Road' with landscape photographer Richard White. It was the third year in a row we had visited this stand of redwoods, and I was looking to encourage the group of workshoppers, mostly fans of the Ansel Adams school of landscape photography, to see things in a different way. As with Hockney the images are made with a low end [3.1 megapixels that my father won in a raffle at hos local RSL] and stitched together with Canon's consumer software 'photostitch', remaining rue to the maxim 'it's not what sort of camera you've got, but what you point it at!' I continue to document my travels as I go, rueing the days when a potential scene appears before me and I am not wearing a pair of red shoes!
