Golf Course Photos - on a bottle of wine....

By Gary Lisbon on Sunday, July 12, 2009 4:13 PM

Well the experts always say that golf and wine make a perfect combination. We believe this to also be the case (when drunk responsibly!) and are now working with a great company called Wines by Design to use my photographic images and display them on quality bottles of wine.

Our first label combines the six golf courses used in the GOLFSelect Business Network - a series of professionally organised golf days held on the top Melbourne Sandbelt golf courses.

The Marysville Masters Charity Golf Day rasied over $650,000 for the residents of Marysville who lost their houses in the devastating fires of Black Saturday. GOLFSelect ran the putting competition on the day with the winner facing off against Greg Norman.

Marysville Golf Club - from the air, a scene of contrasts

By Gary Lisbon on Friday, June 12, 2009 11:20 AM

I was asked by the Ilhan Food Allergy Foundation to take some aerial images of Marysville Golf Club for a proposed golf day which is being held at the fire ravaged golf club on November 10 this year.

The scene from the air was one of a number of distinct contrasts - the open pastures of the farms surrounding the golf course and the fairways of the golf course were a lush green whilst the trees surrounding the course and scattered amongst the fairways were scarred and burnt - a remnant of the terrible Black Saturday Bushfires in February this year. And to add a further contrast there was white snow in the hills surrounding the township.

In early January this year I was commissioned by Australian Golf Digest magazine to take some aerial images of the Sydney coastline from La Perouse and up through Sydney Harbour.

After what seemed to be an inordinately long amount of time (yet in the scheme of publishing was quite quick) our first copies of Great Golf Down Under arrived in our offices. This was indeed an exciting time where all the months of preparation had finally come to the point of a finished product.
