InjiSets NFT Photography

InjiSets was a surprise mint from a new collector in my orbit. Zeneca told me the image is spot he wishes to visit when he returns to Australia.

I love when an image connects with a Collector, no matter the reason.

Description:

This is Injisets, a location where I’ve never shot sunset before, in fact I had meticulously planned an astro shot near-by, see FourYears.

FourYears

Minted on Manifold, listed on Foundation.

I knew that I had one opportunity in 2021 to get the astro shot I wanted, the location is a 3 hour drive South from where I live (or 8 hours as photographers tend drive-stop-drive-stop-drive) accommodation near-by was booked out so I had decided to just pull an all nighter as I’m an absolute wimp when it comes to driving at night and kangaroos bouncing out of the bushes in front of your car.

I pulled up in the late arvo and unfortunately the weather made a last minute change and clouds started to roll in, I knew my astro shot would have to wait another 12 months. I was in a pickle as I had no accommodation for the night.

As the arvo light hit I knew I was in for a treat and realised it was my first time shooting sunset at my favourite place! The pink wildflowers soaked in the light and the stunning Southwest rocks glowed.

I stuck around for an hour in the hope that the clouds would clear for astro, they didn’t.

Inji is a pretty remote area and I didn’t feel safe napping in the car while I waited for dawn, I decided to run the kangaroo gauntlet back to the closest town, Yallingup, thankfully I made it dodging 2 roos.

This is how I came about photographing InjiSets and how the best planned trips can take a turn and end up a total chance image that you’ve never captured before.
