Victoria, Australia
I was fascinated by this old anchor that is the last vestige of the wreck of the sailing ship Fiji. I spent days exploring the shipwreck coast in the atmosphere and history of this untamed location. As huge seas threatened to engulf me, I shot this image of the anchor. Beneath the grasping fingers of the tide, the slow shutter speed turned an angry ocean of waves into a dreamy blanket of mist.

The moodiness of that old anchor against the wreck coast really comes through in the print. I keep it above my desk and the atmosphere pulls me back to Victoria every time. Paper quality feels substantial too, no glare at all.

The story behind this print drew me in before I even framed it — the last anchor of the Fiji sitting on that shipwreck coast is such a haunting detail. It's hanging by my reading chair now and I keep finding new things in it, the muted tones suit the mood perfectly.
