High on a waterfall in the Blue Mountains, the gregarious Red-Tailed Black Cockatoos (Calyptorhynchus banksii) bring a noisy life to a quiet misty landscape. They tend to fly rather slowly with intermittent deep flapping wingbeats. They can live as long as 50 years and the bird’s contact call is a rolling "krur-rr" or "kree" which may carry long distances and given while flying. Its alarm is sharp. In the folklore of the Tiwi people, the red-tailed black cockatoo is said to accompany the dead to heaven.
Animation and soundscape created by internationally award-winning visual effects and post-production studio Heckler.
In response to the degradation of our natural environment, I have animated my photographs of flora and fauna with bird songs to create idealised worlds where birds have reclaimed their place in the landscape. The animation reflects something of my regard-even awe and love for these creatures.
I have been especially fascinated by birds because they are direct descendants of dinosaurs and the fact that they could fly made them doubly unique and appealing as subject matter. Most bird photographers use a very long telephoto lens. I was able to get close enough to use the shorter portrait lens in order to give a sense of intimacy with my subject matter. However, a certain amount of photo manipulation was involved as I photographed birds of the same species from different angles so that I could create a photographic montage.
