The remarkable wind-sculpted sandstone rock formations a short walk south from Bondi beach on the coast walk between Bondi & Coogee via Bronte beach. Sydney, New South, Wales, Australia. ”Bondi” or “Boondi” is an Aboriginal word meaning water breaking over rocks or noise of water breaking over rocks.
Sensual and suggestive in their abstract form and subtle ochre palette the rocks make an exquisite natural sculpture.

An architectural photography assignment for Julia Haensel Architecture documenting an exquisite almost-not-there glass walled meditation space in a garden in Richmond, London, England.
All building materials were brought into the tight garden site by hand via a narrow passage.
The 4 x 8 x 3.2 meter steel & glass meditation and contemplation space is based on Vastu principles. The construction was originally instigated by (Swami) Sri Kaleshwar. The buddha is a 16th century Khmer statue.
The shoot emphasised the quality of architectural detailing and the interplay of reflections with the transparency of the glass walls.
