About Me

I am a Aussie girl, living in the little village of Lennox Head, Australia. It's a quiet village 20kms south of Byron Bay on the East Coast. I busy up my days by day dreaming, swimming, fiddling with things around the house,hanging with my beautiful boyfriend (whom I adore though he drives me crazy) and occasionally I tinker with some photos. I have been back in OZ (from the UK) for three months and I haven't found any respectable work to speak of and although I am super keen to get productive, I really can't complain too much. I live on the beach in a wicked pad. I eat well and exercise by running (ok, walking) up my local beach. I get to see the sunrise over the ocean, i know what the tide is doing and I get to play with all the photos I want. I get to basically live the good life and for that i am totally grateful. My love is photography, all different types. I am particular smitten over the fusion of graphic art, illustration and photography at the moment... Check out the Images I have began to contribute to ROVINGEYE photography... www.rovingeye.com Actually have a look and then buy them! Go on, you know you want to!I am a Registered Nurse and currently pausing my postgrad in disaater relief and refugee health. I am making moves towards practice nursing, which basically means working in a clinic with doctors and other health care professionals which will be a very grown up move for me...This morning I went for a walk to the Lennox Point. As I stood their looking out to sea, feeling a litle bummed for being on my own all weekend, in the same instant i saw two Dolphins swimming in a wave with a surfer. A Humpback Whale breaching just passed the brakers and a sea hawk dive for a fish. Now, that might seem like some scene from 'The Never Ending Story' but its absolutely true it was right in front of me. I stood there for awhile in the sun looking out to sea. This is an awesome place and i'm totally stoked to be on this cool fucking planet!www.flickr.com/photos/jennashelleywww.rovingeye.com

Television:

Hmmm, Arrested Devleopment,Twin Peaks, the occasional CSI Miami(A-NOT), Spics n Specks, Glass House and god bless him, Rove. Aeron and I just discovered we can actually get SBS, Channel Seven and NBN on our television so we have been a little gun hoe' about the whole television experience laterly. Well it might also be the fact we are broke and cant go out. In tele's defense, I have seen so many wicked documentaries that have blown my mind over the years, that I just cant be convinced that television is a bad thing. Of course if your a regular viewer when it come to watching quality like 'Big Brother' or the 'Biggest Loser', then where does the idea that zombies are just fictious creatures come from?
