Interview with Her Well Being

Interview with Kate Branch, Creator of “40 Years Around the Sun” I have recently connected with Kate Branch, who studied art therapy at university, is an avid photographer, and has created a stunning art project to honour her upcoming 40th birthday- 40 Years Around the Sun. If you’ve ever wondered what art therapy is, and how it can enhance our wellbeing, read on below as Kate shares her experience with us and how it has become an integral part of her self-expression, self-care and self-discovery. Can you tell us Kate, what inspired the creation of 40 Years Around the Sun? As my 40th birthday approaches amid a pandemic and without the option of a big party or far-flung travel adventure on the cards, I’ve found another novel (COVID-friendly) way to celebrate. I’ve decided to utilise my skills as a photographer, bundled together with my passion for travel, to create a visual compilation of my favourite sunrises and sunsets from around the globe.

  40 Years Around The Sun A Photographic Celebration of My Favourite Sunrises and Sunsets From Around the Globe As my 40th birthday approaches, in the midst of a pandemic, and without the option of a big party or far flung travel adventure on the cards, I’ve found another novel (COVID-friendly) way to celebrate. I’ve decided to utilise my skills as a photographer, bundled together with my passion for travel, to create a visual compilation of my favourite sunrises and sunsets from around the globe. Entitled 40 Years Around The Sun, this video art project is exactly that; a celebration of my own experience of forty years around this dazzling star, featuring 40 photos, all taken on my beloved Leica camera. It is a revival of my most treasured travel memories, in video form, a selection of my best photography work throughout the years, featuring the burning orb that connects us all; the sun. Even though I can’t physically travel with family or friends, I can still take them on a virtual

Sunrise over Byron Bay

In my life to date, I have been lucky enough to bear witness to 14,600 sunrises and sunsets, as our marbled planet orbits this awe-inspiring star. As a professional photographer, I’ve always had a huge fascination for this burning bright orb, which has been reflected through my ongoing compulsion to capture the moments at dawn and dusk where we see it in all its fiery glory rise and lower before our eyes. Through the lens I aim to catch and savour a moment in time, showcasing the beauty of this celestial body; an integral part of all our lives. 40 Years Around The Sun, featuring 40 sunrises and sunsets captured across the globe over time, will be available to download for free via:  https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Kate_Branch_Photography https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/56903814?ref=studio-promote

The early bird always gets the worm...

I'm really happy to donate this very special image to Wikicommons . A nonprofit organization that supports free knowledge and its mission of free knowledge for all. This was captured last year on an early morning Sunrise walk past Bondi Beach Icebergs.  Bondi icebergs is a swimming pool with natural seawater that offers early bird swimming in a refreshingly cool temperature. I love seeing this person looking out and capturing the sunrise and it made me think of the saying "The early bird always gets the worm."

Hello. My name is Kate Branch. I am a photographer who loves capturing the world. I have been a photographer since 2000. I am also very passionate about capturing the local natural landscapes. It is important to document our Earth. To show the natural beauty of a location at a particular point in time. Thats is why I have donated another image to the Wikicommons project.

Photography reflections

Was it last week I was capturing Byron sunsets, editing my photos in cafes and going to chanting groups and drumming circles? I am so thankful for that week. I will try to keep my love of nature up through all of this. With all the stress at the moment, there is something calming and beautiful about a sunrise. The sun will always rise the next day. I hope my landscape pictures inspire you through this tough time. I hope that people find in them rest, relaxation, or a pause for renewal. May the colour be curative. May they provide sanctuary. May the energy that inspired this work in the first place live on and be felt by those who resonate with it. #worldtravel #travelphotography #katebranch #katebranchcreative
