The Pelican
Pelican and wooden dinghy, Lake Macquarie, Australia.
‘The little wooden rowboat sat out on the lake as though moored in a time warp. It had been a long time since the old man, standing on the shore, had actually used it. After rain, he would wade out across the lake bed, toes squishing through the matted seaweed to bail it out. Sometimes give the painted wood a cursory clean. More often, though, he panned past it through his binoculars from the balcony of his lakeside home.’
From Paul’s short story ‘The pelican, the boat and Ellen’.
Photographed on Fuji Velvia film with a Pentax 645 Camera. #shotonfilm #0059
This Limited Edition is available in three sizes, with a maximum of five prints plus up to two Artist Proofs.

‘I make photographs to hang on walls and be appreciated for lifetimes. The soft texture of these bright white papers is integral to how I want you to see and ‘feel’ my work.’
Foley Fine Art Prints are supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. They are expertly crafted to ensure archival quality on Ilford Prestige Galerie Smooth Cotton Rag or Hahnemühle Photo Rag heavyweight paper. The paper size allows for a 20mm white border, but as I treat each scene individually, different pictures may have bespoke crop or form factors.
Australia-wide delivery is free via trackable courier, fully insured for damages. Please allow 14-21 days for production and delivery.
For Australian-based clients, framing options include dry-mounting your giclée print to an acid-free 5mm foam board with an archival adhesive film. This is then placed in a hand-crafted shadowbox frame made from FSC-certified Australian timber, protected by durable 3mm museum-grade plexiglass. The frame is finished with framer’s tape and stainless steel hanging wire.
