If they aren't already these need to be large prints. They are stunning, perhaps Zen inspired artworks. Bravo for these.

Oh Monica. Such questions.
My mental state has a great deal to do with what I present here in the form of imagery.
i don’t mean I’m crazy, although I suspect others might assume otherwise.

The photograph was taken while on holiday with my Lil Brother. We travelled to Byron Bay, a favourite surfing place of mine. The mot peaceful time is in the early evening when the light illuminates the water as if to turn it to gold.
There were some lagoons trapped by the tide that were worth some contemplation. In the water  people were wading, birds fishing and a bit of mangrove debris floating.
i sat for an hour or so lapping up the tranquility while the rest of the world went back to their lairs.
when all was quiet and I was alone I took a few photos. There wasn’t much light left but I knew my camera was capable. From the images I took, I found this the most poignant of the time. 
Solitude is something I seek in my personal life; adrift in a sea of tranquility, surrounded by the sound of the surf and the stillness of evening.
Thats how I was able to achieve this photo.

Outstanding stuff.  It really underlines the role of post process in current photography.  And it underlines it masterfully.
