Roddy's thoughts and pictures at the close of the day
Six beautiful images of Dalarna's lakes and forests for personal use. I thought these colourful autumn images would make lovely desktop pictures: you are welcome to download them. They can also be printed as gifts and downloaded full size from my Sweden gallery at roddyfox.photography - visitors are always welcome!
I'm enjoying the flexibility of a virtual exhibition space at #naf2022. It's meant that I can easily add this new image of Amakhala - taken a couple of weeks ago- to the Room of Dreams. Aloes, Winter Stars and Dawn Light, Amakhala It fits very nicely in the centre of the wall of landscapes with... Continue Reading →
There are more images of birds than anything else in my Room of Dreams 3D virtual exhibition. It's already open though Fringe Exhibitions @naf2022 don't start until June 23. Once the hard COVID lockdown started in March 2020 I was restricted to the house and garden and so I taught myself how to use the... Continue Reading →
Room of Dreams - my 3D virtual exhibition at #naf2022 - has 57 of my nature and landscape images and I’ve just realised that seven of the images on the landscapes wall are of Hogsback.

We’ve been planning this shoot on the beautiful hills above Featherstone Kloof for quite a while. @meagieswain told me that she has always wanted to do a tulle fabric shoot - completely wrapped in white - and I was keen to get some more images to promote our forthcoming virtual exhibition ‘Set Your Life on...

This intimate exhibition previews the lockdown collaboration between myself and Cape Town based environmentalist and model Meagen Swain (meagencourtneyswain@gmail.com). We want to show that in spite of the psychological impact of the dire state of the world - highlighted during the Coronavirus epidemic - it is possible to produce art spiritually inspired by the words...

I think there's a good deal of fun to be had light painting. It's like a mini performance. You have to imagine a dark scene to light up, get your camera organised, put on your darkest clothes, start the camera and then take your light into the space, weaving and turning, circling and waving. Then... Continue Reading →
Freddy's been circling in my studio ever since he swam over to me from Sally Scott's wonderful exhibition at the Johan Carinus Art School. That must be five or six years ago during South Africa's National Arts Festival! Last night he got a real break. I gave him a dust over and a new (black)... Continue Reading →
