Golden Retriever puppy - Gucio
I got an early father’s day present this year - a 12 week old golden retriever boy puppy, which I called Gucio.
You may not realise but one of my most popular photographs in this gallery with 1000s of views every week is that of a girl golden retriever we got last year called Buttercup.

Everglades Gardens at Leura - nude boy sculpture _MG_9841
Another artistic controversy fizzes out as the Classification Board classifies the photograph of Olympia Nelson on the cover of of Art Monthly magazine. The board decided the magazine is not suitable for children and rated it M (for mature audiences).
I really wonder what part of public this so called “public outcry” comes from. An average person, even if they are not into art has seen countless paintings of naked bodies. There are naked sculptures all around the world, just like the one of the young boy pictured here from a National Trust owned Everglades garden in Leura. These paintings and sculptures do not come with any ratings and yet they are commonly accepted, more to the point they are admired.
So, what suddenly makes contemporary art any different from the art created prior to current generation?

Young violin player
This young boy was playing violin in the Pitt Street Mall. He was totally ignored by everyone passing by. I see all sort of buskers trying to make a dollar by playing music and selling their CDs, but to day I think I have never seen any of them so ignored by the crowd as this boy was.

My son the brave, Mount Pilatus Rope Park, Luzerne Switzerland 102_0716
When you are on a long trip through Europe the kids get bored by seeing another old town, another cathedral and yet another castle. We have tried to break our trip up so they get some activities, which would appeal to them. When we were in Lucerne we went up the Mount Pilatus. The weather turned really nasty and with limited options on the mountain we took our kids to the Mount Pilatus Rope Park (Siel). I was amazed how brave my kids are. Some of the sections were very difficult and they both did them all. Here is Sebastian on one of the highest crossings with Mount Pilatus in the background. Looks like he is walking the ropes in the clouds.
