Robeya Williams Walt Photographer

Robeya Williams Walt Photographer Photography is about documenting life and capturing the essence of that object or subject which I am It is easier said than done as most will know.

How do I do it? I am passionate about life and experiencing moments rather than things - I think any photographer who understands that life is about living and experiences will be able to capture that essence when photographing. My muse at this moment is Annie Lennox - I am a great admirer.

What is life?
So after we’ve explored and exhausted business, religion, family, politics, love, s*x, and all other types of pleasantness – we may find that none of these are truly and completely satisfying. Somehow we are still left with emptiness and void, yearning for it to be filled somehow.

So what remains? Our natural environment remains. Remove yourself from the apathetic corners of our unnatural world and experience fresh air, living trees and fields, flowing waters, and the change of seasons.

Mount Larcom Revisited.

Mount Larcom (the mountain) was named after Captain Thomas Larcom in 1802. The mountain is 632 meters high and offers spectacular views from the top. However on this last trip I didn't make it to the top since I got so distracted by the little details all around me.

It should be good for another walk after the last rainfall - maybe that waterhole will now have running water - perfect for a swim!

Your ordinary Egyptian Goose, or maybe not so ordinary. Believed to be held as sacred by the ancient Egyptians and were frequently used in their artwork.

Aggressive & aggressively territorial even towards their own species. She builds the nest which is quite unusual for birds, and they both take turns to incubate the eggs.

Males and females look alike with the female a little smaller. These birds sometimes cross the species barrier and breed with other ducks or geese such as the Mallards.

My guess with these images I took would be that he wanted to go for a swim and shouted for her to get a move on......

How many of us feel unappealing when we don't wear make-up?

How often do we walk out the house without any make-up on?

Don't we always carry that little 'lippy' with us? One in the handbag (or maybe a few), one in the car, one in the sports bag, one in the top drawer of the office desk? I know that I feel half dressed without my lipstick on.

My mom never went anywhere without at least a lipstick on. She would still do without the eye shadow or mascara but never without a lipstick. She applied it more frequently than Donald Trump says 'It's true'.

Her role model was probably Doris Day or Gina Lolobrigida. Now some of you reading this might be thinking .... 'Who???'

The point I'm trying to make is that we all have role models when it comes to fashion and make-up. We follow the example of our older sisters, fashion idols, actresses etc. But more than anything else we follow the example set by the media.

Now the media uses a well known tool called PHOTOSHOP! Photoshop is like waving a magic digital wand. A little clone of this, a little healing of that, a brush swish here, a dodge, burn or sponge there and ABRACADABRA! Magic....... and a transformed image.

Basically think about it... we are 7.4 billion people on this earth with the s*x ratio more or less equal at 101 males to 100 females. That's a lot of people and potentially a lot of profit if a brand is successfully launched. So of course the advertising companies are going to do whatever they can to make their models look the best.

Sad to say but I am no Photoshop guru, but I managed to 'transform' this model's face with only a few brush strokes. Years ago when we did the photo shoot, her child-like innocence with her face splattered all over with tiny freckles was really attractive but it's simply not what the magazine editors want to see. Do you think the Photoshopped image looks better? Which image will sell you a lipstick?

We continuously compare ourselves to images in magazines, advertisements on TV and posters in the very gym where we are trying to improve our body image. The reality is that we don't look like the people in the magazines. Even the people in the magazines don't look like that in reality. It's all false advertising.

By all means go to the gym because you want to stay healthy and wear that lipstick because you want to look more attractive. But just keep in mind that not everything is about appearance and it's about time that we embrace who we are and stop comparing ourselves to unrealistic reflections in the media.

The Zara Home(less) person with style. The last time I traveled through Sydney I saw this very neatly made up 'bedding' (lower left corner of image) in front of the Zara Home main branch in the CBD. Quite a contrast between the person's real world and the picture of luxury in the showroom window. Not the best exposure taken with the phone camera but the contrast of someone's (& pet as well) street bedding and the image of warmth & luxury just behind that glass window was just so unusual. I'd say a person with a wacky sense of humour :)
