Mental Health [More]

In photography I realized clearly in a recent shoot how much I value people who are present. People who are free from any need to protect their vulnerabilities. People who do not pedestal the camera result over the joy of the moment. So many people have fallen for the trap of taking life as life and death rather than a creation for enjoyment. However to fully be free and enjoy a game we must learn the rules and skills. [More]

Have been doing some renos on my bathroom and have found the painting to be a passion for me. Whilst it may not be like painting a picture it does give me a creative fulfillment. Must have been reaching my subconscious as in the middle of the morning the following line came to me. We paint what we see and clean our brushes with what we feel. I wrote this down in my bedside journal and didn’t look at it again until I woke up. [More]

I find that people consistently are unreliable and at times manipulative in my business and personal dealings. Over my life this has greatly affected me and I have often become instictively cold as soon as I feel cheated or disrespected. These days whilst I still get hurt I honour the hurt and search the siutation at depth. [More]

My Mum stimulates much of my writing with our conversations. One thing that she doesn’t like owning up to is hate. She has experienced much pain in her life emotionally and in my opinion has felt hate many times in her life especially when feeling rejected. However when I mention this she replies with ‘Hate is a Strong word’. She then admits to perhaps disliking someone but never to hating. [More]

Just spoke to Mum and we were speaking of awareness and why many people don’t want to be deeply aware of their own stuff or that of those around them. I suggested to Mum that it is about having faith in oneself. That if people don’t like who they are that they are not likely to go very deep into their experiences in life especially the bad ones. [More]

Could God be found in a woman’s vagina? Whilst this sounds like a controversial or silly statement I believe it has some merit. My personal belief is that God is to be found in the most powerful of experiences. That he is housed at the depth of the most powerful feeling sensations.  [More]

Just saw a cartoon where a man jumped into icy water and his cartoon nipples popped up like those on a pregnant woman. Why are men’s nipples acceptable and women’s are not? How stupid is this? Once again it is restriction and possession in my opinion. [More]

The other night I visited a stip club and wondered how some would view me for attending. I love the shapes of some women's bodies and faces and if the energy of the woman is humble can become incredibly inspired. However many times when I have visited such clubs I have found both the patrons and the dancers to be very dis empowering. [More]

This is my first piece on human nature. It is such a deeply passionate topic for me so I expect to add to it over time. To come right out with what I feel my opinion is that human nature is screwed but that our essence is amazing. In writing this piece I am of course generalizing. There are many many people who have a wonderful nature and are very honest and balanced. However in general I believe that humans grossly sell out on their true potential. [More]

I watched a video the other night titled 'The Sacred Prostitute'. It was a fascinating programme and resonated with many things I feel deeply about. [More]

I am always pondering my moods and life in general. I have been away on a long holiday near the beach and on returning to Melbourne have been feeling very dis oriented. [More]

I believe that we all come in to the world with a mind open to receiving information. However in my opinion we are coming into a world that in general is very confused and very protective of this confusion. As such we are very quickly conditioned to not trust the world we are born in to. [More]

I have written the following on my myspace site and thought it could be interesting to post it here aswell. I am very much a person who doesn’t accept depression in myself as natural and normal. I frequently search my emotions for empowerment. The following refers to an aspect of life that I believe is the cause of much mental instability. It talks of energy and confusion and how we all pass it around. It is touching on things that many in the science world and spiritual healing fraternity are interested in. However to my mind the medical people don’t seem to give it much respect. Would be interested in the opinions of people on this site. [More]

This philosophy has been inspired by the media surrounding the passing of Steve Irwin. The title originated from an off hand comment I had made to a friend. She asked me if I had seen the Ch 9 interview with Terri Irwin. <!--more-->My immediate response was that it is all a Croc of shit. The play on words was totally unplanned and my response was instinctive passion. I quickly calmed down when I realised what I had said and we began to discuss the issues surrounding Steve's death. [More]

I have just read a reference in a book about the tsunami and how the wild animals were not killed. The author suggested that the animals sensed the energy approaching and travelled to higher ground. He then suggested that it would not have been a conscious decision and that they would have just acted without thinking. [More]

I have for a long time wanted to write a specific piece about women and cosmetic surgery. A recent discussion has prompted me to do it now. I have been attending a spiritual dance class where I have met many women who differ in personality and looks greatly to the models I photograph. [More]

People tend to forget about themselves in exploration of the big world.How can we be true to ourselves when we haven't discovered ourselves wholly and souly? How can we find our soul mate when we haven't fully understood ourselves? [More]

I am an only child and growing up, went to many different schools all over the world. I have noticed that years of never having any stable friendships have taken a toll on who I am as a person. I am always wary of what people are thinking of me. Am I good enough to be someone’s friend? Will they think I am a loser? I often pondered why I thought these things. Does everyone have these thoughts? As I grow older I am more aware of who I am inside and therefore how other people must be. I was always so selfish to think of what they were thinking about me, did they like me, how could I make them like me more. I never focused on trying to make myself a better person and therefore stop thinking about what other people thought. [More]

Like everyone - man or woman, I feel self conscious of myself to a certain extent. Not so much how I talk, what I say or how I think, more in a physical sense. How I look or how I feel.... what people might say about one of my physical attributes. In the world of modeling, there is a lot of pressure to look a certain way - tall, lean, fit, toned but skinny is the word you will hear most. [More]

What is it that makes people into robots and become addicted to all kinds of self destroying behaviour. I have a passion for having a clean and tidy house of which I am very proud. However I know to others it is a compulsive addiction and I am beginning to realise they maybe correct in their assumption. [More]

There has just been a report of a Rugby League legend passing and his son revealing that he had suffered from depression. It has created much publicity and shock in Australia. People seem baffled how such a successful and strong man could be down. It has led to a debate as to if depression is an illness or a weakness. [More]

We are in the first day of 2006 and the world seems to be in confusion and fear. I truly feel that the world will be saved by individuals and not governments and not a saviour or second coming. So many of us don't love ourselves and look for the world to save us. We are low on faith and self esteem and are bitter and weak.  [More]

Recently in Australia there has been a spate of dog attacks. The government is looking at legislating to eliminate certain breeds. I believe that these attacks have a deeper message for us all to listen to. Just recently on a trip to Sydney I was bitten by a dog for the first time. [More]

I thought I may share some further thoughts re the looks issue of depression. Last night for a rare occasion I went out to a place called 'The Beach'. It is a trendy hotel in Port Melbourne frequented by the so called 'beautiful people'. I used to go to such places regularly myself a few years ago and used to judge myself and others harshly at times. I left many times with anger and/or low self esteem. [More]

There are many stories that we hear. Some we believe others we don’t. However I believe we can learn from everything that comes to our minds. The Bible talks of The Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve. Perhaps this is a true story or perhaps it is a story from someone’s imagination. [More]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder is a phrase that has been often heard. Do we really understand the essence of this phrase? [More]

I am angry this morning..angry about labels..angry about money..angry about love as a possession and most angry that people seem to have lost faith in their hearts..the world..the future. [More]

Modern society really does seem to judge the bible and certainly seems to judge and perhaps not even believe in God. Either way we seem to have a very wide range of reactions, thoughts and fears about both God and the Bible. [More]

This website is about following our passions and being free from fear and judgement. Many of the models who choose to appear nude on the site have to go deep into their hearts in order to have the courage to pose. Many face fear of judgement from boyfriends, parents, friends and peers. [More]

Last night I was having dinner with a girlfriend and as we left I noticed a strikingly beautiful young woman of about 18-20. Her face was truly captivating and I commented to my friend about how beautiful this girl's face was. [More]

When I use the term energy I think I am referring to our inner state of being. This inner state communicates with everyone and everything in my opinion. Whilst humans believe most in words and actions I believe that it is our inner state that communicates with the most power. Given that this is spirit the material world and rational thinking has placed little significance towards a person's energy. [More]

Much of this site is devoted to understanding what real love is. My belief at this stage is that the most real love is love of self and that a love of self is gained through the appreciation of beauty in one's environment. [More]

Was talking to Dad today and he said that we need to experience lows to appreciate the highs. I have heard many people say this and my instinct has always been that there must be a way to appreciate life without needing lows. [More]

On a recent phone conversation with my mother the topic of fear came up. This is not unusual as it is a constant source of discussion between us. Recently one of Mum's brothers had mentioned to my mother that I had referred to my parents as alcoholics. [More]

I met a girl last night, I think her name was Tina. If fate allows I would love to see her again. She just has something about her. She is so deep and has so much emotion. She is a truly inspiring person. It is like she opens herself up 100% to life's energy and now just needs to have faith in the information that this energy brings. [More]

I believe that love is not about money, status, convenience, height , weight, or even gender or personality. It is all about what is real..that feeling .. that energy.. the heart and soul. When someone allows us to see who they really are underneath all of the walls of fear and illusion - this is love. [More]

I believe that we are here on earth to find the best way to live life to it's fullest. To jointly create a world where passion and love become the foundations of all our goals and purposes. [More]

I believe that emotional sensitivity is a true gift. Sensitive people I believe have a heightened ability to feel the emotions of other people and also have a heightened ability to project their feelings and emotions to others. [More]

How good we feel about life is related to how we interact with others and our perceived position in life. If we stop stressing about our looks and status we stop judging ourselves up against others. We become far less self absorbed and give and receive energy freely. [More]

Hey Tony, [More]

I believe that the majority of us have a fear of being judged. We wish to be viewed by others as being almost perfect people. We are so intent on valuing our reputation above all else that we lose the bigger picture. [More]

Why have I chosen to photograph women on this site and not men? The first reason is that women are my passion. As a photographer I love photographing women whose aesthetic beauty I find to the most captivating of all God's creations.  [More]

I have been endeavouring of late to develop a strong faith in fate. Yesterday morning I walked past the spot where Alick Wickham made his jump and remembered a jump that I had made recently. [More]

I woke this morning and had no idea it was Valentines Day. I was having a phone conversation with my mother and at the end of the conversation told her that I loved her both in my soul and now also in my mind and actions. [More]

I believe that we are living in a world that is experiencing a gender imbalance. By this I mean that we are becoming dominated by the stereotypical male characteristic. Many women are in my opinion also becoming overly masculine in their personas in reaction to the males in their lives. [More]

07:12 pm - Something i wrote...
…And so I write. Type. Whatever. Type seems to lack in poetry, but I guess we have to find our own in an age where technology rules. That and advertising… And fashion… And sex. It seems a shame that it all so often goes sour, or gets outdated. So you're left single, feeling a little empty and laughed at for still sporting last seasons threads and an empty wallet. And wasn’t it just to impress that amazing person who is now dating a younger model? [More]

These photos mean a great deal to me. Like most females, I have struggled with my appearance since I was about 13. However I was actually severely depressed for several years and admitted to hospital following a suicide attempt. No- one needs to hear about the pressure on girls to look good in society, it's pervasive in every aspect of our lives. Our insecurity is an excellent marketing tool, enabling the cosmetics industry and plastic surgeons to make millions from us every year. [More]

I believe that emotional sensitivity is the greatest gift a person can have. I have a friend who is as sensitive as anyone I have ever met. For the past 6 or more years I have been trying to get her to believe in her senses and search them for her wisdom. [More]
