Beautiful Dreams

rang and told me she’d written a set of songs for new cd. It was to be called “Beautiful Dreams” and centered on her grandmothers’ dementia and her grandfathers enduring affection regardless of circumstance. She didn’t have anything particularly in mind for the photography and wanted to leave it up to me.

I don’t like to over think photographs and often have an “it’ll be right on the night” approach.

Rach was living at Rosewood which is located in the plains and foothills of the great dividing range west of Brisbane. I did and internet search of local maps and decided we’d meet at a railway siding late one afternoon in June just gone. It was a cold night, and we froze our butts off as we stumbled in the dark with torches but managed to get enough in a few hours. A dragline in a coal mine a mile across the valley provided some handy fill light. The purple sky was an in camera effect, the white balance was on auto. I hope it’s going good for you Rach.
