CAMINO DE SANTIAGO - FRANCE | SPAIN

In July of this year I carried a 12kg backpack containing three pairs of underwear, three pairs of socks, a one man tent, a few changes of clothes and walked 890km across Spain. Starting in France, I made my way across the Pyrenees Mountains, photographing a continuous outdoor museum of Spanish history, culture and of course, landscape... 

Here are a few tiny selects of my favorite images. Only 15 minutes of retouching has been done on each image (contrast).  I hope to exhibit the entire collection at some point in the foreseeable future.

Golden Eagles and Egyptian Vultures soared high above me during my first day of walking across the Pyrenees mountains, crossing the border from France to Spain...


Do you feel like you are falling.. off the edge of the earth...?


Crossroads. A very symbolic image for the Camino ... just outside of Pamplona


My favorite.









"The Open Road" 
To me, this is the gateway to the Camino De Santiago. I have this box framed and printed at 1m x 1.5m. People usually stop and stare at it for a long time as it could take you anywhere, like the Camino, literally. 

These images are only the beginning of the series... The Camino De Santiago really opened my eyes as to how unique, beautiful and diverse landscapes are and I can honestly say, I absolutely loved capturing it in my own little world ... ; ) 

Should you like to purchase any of these images or see anymore, please email me or "like" my Facebook page. My website is www.juliawheelerphotography.com ...

FOR CLARE & TOMMY | BALI

On the hottest day of 2011, Clare and Tommy tied the knot at the lovely Palm Beach on Sydney's north shore. I'll admit, I wasn't the "official" wedding photographer however I did manage to capture a numerous amount of gorgeous moments between the two and of course, their delightful little girl, Betty Jean. Here are a few of their selects...

BALI

From the 8th - 15th of October, I went to Bali for a holiday, sight seeing and happy snapping like the archetypal tourist. I wasn't concentrating so much on my photography, though I did capture a few stunning sunsets, mischievous water babies and an early morning hike up Mt. Batur Volcano, photographing the highlights of my partner's experience. 

I took these shots at Jimbaran Bay where I was staying. I love the light streak from the sun setting in the background and the ripples from the water, enhanced by the silhouettes of my subjects.

Mt. Batur Volcano is approximately 1717m above sea level, located in the Kintamani District, north west of the island. Batur has erupted several times with the largest eruption in 1926 destroying the Batur Village. After an early morning wake up call (2am!), we made our way up the Volcano to experience one of the most breath taking (and chilly) sun rises I have ever seen. 


Our guide, Gidi, then demonstrated just how active the Volcano was, carefully digging out some of the volcanic rocks from small steaming craters so that we could listen to them crackle as they cooled down from the morning air.
