    About this ebook

    I WAS PROMPTED TO COMPILE THIS BOOK AFTER HAVING EXHIBITED SOME OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS CONTAINED WITHIN ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS. THE MOST COMMON COMMENT FROM LOCAL HOBARTIANS WAS I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE RIVER LOOKING LIKE THAT, THERE IS ONLY ONE RIVER IN HOBART, AND ALL THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE AS TAKEN WITH NO ENHANCEMENT WHATSOEVER.

    I TAKE THE PHOTOGRAPHS IN AN ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE THE MYRIAD COLOURS, LIGHTS, TEXTURES AND MOMENTS THAT ARE THE EVERCHANGING FACE OF THE RIVER. I PRESENT THEM HERE IN AN ATTEMPT TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO NOT JUST LOOK AT OR WALK THROUGH THE WORLD AROUND THEM, BUT TO TRULY SEE AND FEEL THE LITTLE THINGS THAT CAUSE US TO PAUSE OR SMILE, THE DEEPLY ENRICHING ENGAGEMENT WITH THE EVERYDAY FAMILIAR WORLD THAT MAKES OF THIS EXISTANCE A LIFE.

    Pam Wright

    PAM WRIGHT GREW UP IN SYDNEY WHERE SHE TRAINED AS A REGISTERED NURSE AT THE ROYAL ALEXANDRA HOSPITAL FOR CHILDREN. PAM THEN WENT ON TO DO MIDWIFERY AT THE BROKEN HILL AND DISTRICT HOSPITAL BEFORE RETURNING TO R.A.H.C. FROM AN EARLY AGE PAM DEVELOPED AN INSATIABLE CURIOSITY ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND HER, A DEEP LOVE OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND AN ADDICTION TO THE BEAUTY OF LIGHT AND THE JOYS OF PHOTOGRAPHY. SHE TRAVELLED TO TASMANIA IN 1974 AS PART OF AN AROUND AUSTRALIA FOUR WHEEL DRIVE HOLIDAY AND SINCE THAT TIME HAS MADE TASMANIA HER HOME, ALTHOUGH SHE HAS CONTINUED TO TRAVEL WIDELY BOTH WITHIN AND WITHOUT AUSTRALIA. PAM IS SYNESTHETIC; A MIXING OF THE SENSES WHEREBY LETTERS, NUMBERS, WORDS AND SOUNDS ARE NOT JUST LETTERS, NUMBERS, WORDS AND SOUNDS BUT EVOKE IN PAM’S MIND A HIGHLY SPECIFIC STRONG SENSE OF COLOUR AND SHE HAS OFTEN WONDERED IF HER UNUSUAL WAY OF THINKING HAS ENHANCED HER DELIGHT IN THE WORLD AROUND HER. PAM LIVES IN WEST HOBART, TASMANIA WITH FAMILY INCLUDING SOME VERY PAMPERED DOGS, AND CONTINUES TO WORK AS A REGISTERED NURSE.

      My father and I wade through knee-deep snow in December. Evening rushes into the ravine we climb, half the canyon cloaked in shade. The snow that softened in the sun is already freezing in the forest’s shadow.  Here, 500 feet above the Blackfoot Rive

      THE snow has gone. How soon we tire of it. And now, when old men of the countryside talk to me of the hard winters of ’95 and ’77 and ’63, I will remind them of that remarkable fantastic frost of 1940. Not far from Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire, seve

      Ode To Autumn

      Oct 4, 2023

      OUR perception of the seasons is often one of metaphor: there is the joyous youth of spring, summer’s fecund vigour and autumn’s melancholy decline (of winter we will not speak yet). Autumn represents the year in its late middle age and many people d
