Byron Bay Blues Festival, Australian Events Photographer

This years Byron Bay Blues festival did not disappoint with a Stellar line up ranging from Robert Plant , Santana, Paul Simon, Ben Harper and many more amazing musicians. My highlights included Manu Chao, Playing for Change, Ben Howard, Chris Issak, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals and of course the punters who always spread some serious good vibes.

New Year Festivities 

On sacred earth they shuffle, moving to a sacred rhythm. Summoned together in a valley cradled by a wooded ridge, they are sheltered by pristine rainforest and cooled by a tidal creek that snakes its way around the festival enclosure.

Welcoming in a new year is a labyrinth of exotic creatures, sirens, circus performers, geishas and other masked glories. Parading to the beat of samba drums, chanting “Happy New Year”.

Glorious child of hope

There is a new arrival in our family. She has super magical powers. Powers that can on occasion turn night into day and day into night. She can invoke tears from grown men and her presence can simultaneously confront and comfort her big sister. She can fill our family with love without being able to speak and her first smiles are a little piece of heaven. Welcome miss Amali Yoko our glorious child of hope.

The Party

 

I have never been shy of a good party even if recently as a mother my party circuit has somewhat changed.

I enjoy observing my child’s first tasters to social play. The antics of a good party stay the same at whatever age. There is the build up of anticipation, an exquisite costume selection, the friendships and moments shared with tears and laughter, a touch of nudity, the highs (whatever the selected potion) and of course the come down. 

Here are some photos of her latest party adventure. Happy 5th birthday to Elki.
