My 2019 calendar photos

Each year I select photos I’ve taken and produce a calendar to give as gifts to family and close friends. Here is this year’s selection.

Ryoj Ikeda’s massive installation Spectra, a feature of the very first Dark Mofo, made a welcome return to Hobart to be permanently situated at the Museum of Old and New Art in Berridale. It was lit to mark the Winter solstice and this photograph is taken from across the River Derwent at Old Beach.

January

This display of old oars is on a shack at Cockle Creek, at the end of the road as far south as it’s possible to drive within Australia. They are presumably single oars remaining from former pairs, separated by storms, mishaps, age or circumstance.

February

Lunar New Year celebrations on the lawns outside Parliament House, Hobart. 2018 was the Year of the Dog.

The new viewing deck over the lily pond at the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens was installed to mark the Gardens’200th anniversary.

The statue of Sir John Franklin and its surrounding fountain have had a modern makeover, complete with colour-changing LED lighting. Franklin Square, Hobart.

Atmospheric lighting highlights the gothic architectural stylings of Domain House in Hobart.
