Hey everyone, My Dark Spaces Exhibition in now on show at 'Cams' (The St Helier’s Street Gallery) at the Abbotsford Convent.
To give you some perspective for the 'Night Garden' series alone, the images cover a time frame of over a year of shooting in the garden at night and I estimate well over 100+ hours of work to photograph and edit the file to the point that are now. And all that is less than half of what is on display.The exhibition will be open from Friday the 7th of March- to Sunday the 30 of March, with the drinks and meet the artist being on the 22nd of March 4:30-6:30pm midway in to the show.I would very much love to see some of you over the next 3 weeks, and feel free to pass on any feedback and let other interested party know about the show.See the Event info and more are here, -
Updated edit of the lower garden ;-)
The show starts on this Fri with drinks on sat 22nd of March, and end on the 30th.

The exclusive screenings will be taking place on the 29th and 30th of April at the State Library of Victoria.
‘Neurons to Nirvana’ is a mind-blowing documentary about the resurgence of psychedelics as medicines. Through interviews with the world’s foremost researchers, writers, psychologists and pioneers in psychedelic psychotherapy, Neurons to Nirvana explores the history of five powerful psychedelic substances (LSD, Psilocybin, MDMA, Ayahuasca and Cannabis) and their now established medicinal potential.
Featuring leading experts Gabor Mate, Dennis McKenna, Rick Doblin, Charles Grob, Jeremy Narby, Stanislav Grof, David Nutt, Julie Holland, David Healy, Michael Mithoefer, David Nichols, Amanda Fielding, Stephen Ross, Ralph Metzner, Gillian Maxwell, Manuel Schoch, Michael Winkelman, William Richards, Kathleen Harrison, Roland Griffiths, Wade Davis, Ingrid Pacey, and Chris Bennett.
The exclusive screenings also include a personalised introduction by the filmmakers, director Oliver Hockenhull and producer Mikki Willis.
Each screening will be followed by an in-depth discussion panel from relevant Australian specialists in the field of psychedelic science.
Panellists include:
Martin Williams (PRISM and EGA - http://prism.org.au/)
Fiona Patten (ASXP - https://www.sexparty.org.au/)
Steph Tzanetis (DW - http://www.dancewize.org.au/)
Steve Bright (PRISM - http://prism.org.au/)
Tim Payne (EGA founder – http://www.entheo.net/)
Doors open at 7pm, with the film starting at 7:30pm.

This event will be a fundraiser for Entheogenesis Australis and PRISM (Psychedelic Research in Science in Medicine). Entheogenesis works tirelessly to produce events and educational resources to support, educate and strengthen the psychedelic community in Australia. Recently, they launched a Youtube channel (www.youtube.com/entheotv) with recorded talks from past events.

This State has gone to the dogs.
It sounds like we need a capitalist model to protest under.
We need to make protesting a job ;-)

Thanks guys, i know many of you live way to far away to make it along, but i appreciate your support all the same. I am re-editing that last garden shot slightly for the show, so i might post the updated edit when i get it looking good.

Yes shot with long exposure (generally my night shots are 4-10m long). It was shot around 12 midnight, no not with TL, yes i did paint with light slightly and need photoshop to realise my idea completely. This is just the web edit and i am working on the print file now.
On average including test shot, it take about a night to get each shot right, some times much more.
Prints look 10x better than a web shot, so try come down.

You are invited to come and view the art works, meet the artist and enjoy a beverage all on the same afternoon. My images have been influenced by my work with plants over the years and also my love of nature and gardens and open spaces. I have been a long term SAB member and been sharing my work in the creative thread for year as i developed, so i found it fitting to let you now about my show. There is also a nice lawn to chill on just outside the gallery to catch up with people, so it would be nice to see some of the plant heads there on the 22 for a drink.

Dark Spaces is a collection of landscape and portrait photography by Jonathan Carmichael.
Jonathan’s fine art photography generally focuses on low light landscapes and melancholy portrait-based images. The works commonly taking in abandoned and secluded landscapes presenting them with a clinical darkness and searching for subjects with both a fusion of urban decay and more classical landscape elements. Jonathan’s photographs also ask us to question the darkness that lies deep within in ourselves.
The Exhibition primarily presents works from the ‘Last Day’ series and the ‘Night Garden’ with some supplementary works also on display. Last Day is a set of portraits unfolding after death; the series is a melancholy exploration in an alternative time and place where the individuals are to some degree aware that the end is coming. All the characters in Last Day are engaged in their most desired activities as they greet the end of their days.
The Night Garden images take a voyage through the wonder of a master garden lit by moonlight. Gardens are magical spaces with a profound sense of serenity that can enhance our perception and remind us of who we are. We all know as the seasons change, so does the garden; but it changes even more radically in the illumination of moonlight. Night Garden explores a side of the garden less familiar to most of us but with a 'pinch of the psychedelic'.
The exhibition will be open from Friday the 7th of March- Sunday the 30th of March, with the drinks being on the 22nd of March 4:30-6:30pm.

EGA are very excited to announce the launch of the Entheogenesis Australis (EGA) YouTube channel providing more than 20 lectures from past conferences and more!
It is our hope that this educational channel will help to broaden the discussion around psychedelic plants and compounds within Australia, as well as around the world, and provide a realistic context to the role that drugs and altered states play in the modern world.
Also included on the channel is a fantastic short film exploring the beauty, wonder, artistic vision and unique community of the EGA gathering:
The best browser to view YouTube in is Google Chrome, and please set your quality level as high as you can manually, as it will not be the maximum as default.
The channel presents lectures from a host of Australian and international leaders in their fields:
Rick Doblin
Dennis McKenna
Fire and Earth
Keeper Trout
Bear Owsley
Robert Jesse
Alex Wodak
Des Tramacchi
And many more . . .
Please share the new channel amongst your friends, colleagues and networks.
