Windy, late afternoon, sun already dropping and the national park was mine. Barely a soul out, which isn’t ideal for street photography, but it was exactly what I needed.

No one to work around, nothing to time or wait for. Just chasing the last of the light before it went completely.

Sometimes the empty ones are the good ones.

I spent a couple of days down south. I walked the Gold Coast streets on the last days of winter, no real plan, just following whatever caught my eye.

There’s a real tension here. Old apartment blocks holding ground, standing shoulder to shoulder with the new luxury builds, grit and polish sharing the same skyline, for now anyway.

That wind was relentless, right up until we made it to Snapper Rocks, where it finally gave up. A lineup full of surfers, a whale or two frolicking in the bay and one guy just sitting there reading a book, completely unbothered by any of it.

If the wind had died down earlier, I probably would’ve spent hours zigzagging the side streets in the heart of the Gold Coast to see what else was hiding back there.

Nevermind, there’s always next time.

I was standing there admiring the rusted-out Ford, we had one just like it, we used to take that beast down the dirt roads to see how it cornered. Not too bad, actually, for something held together by rust and hope.

I was mid-nostalgia, giving it a proper once-over, when I heard the rumble of an El Camino behind me. Might’ve given myself whiplash, the way my head spun.

Got into position, lined everything up, and waited to see if that yellow El Camino would roll into exactly the spot I wanted.

It did. Luck was on my side that day.

Venice Standoff — now in the gallery.

Venice Bowl

Concrete poured for exactly one purpose, and somebody making quiet, careful use of every inch of it. The coast isn’t only the water, it’s this too.

Nobody waters a prickly pear. Nobody has to. It just sits there in the dirt, doing whatever it wants, spines out, daring you to test it.

No fuss, no maintenance, no apology. Just structure and stubbornness, which, if I’m honest, is basically the whole outdoors collection in one plant.

Prickly Pear — now in the gallery, part of the Outdoors Collection.

Entirely an obsession, mostly Defenders.

I didn’t plan to end up with a whole lot of these (or did I 😉) it just kept happening. Every one of them found somewhere, none of them planned.
One exception snuck in, and I’m not sorry about it.

If you know, you know.
