Point Plomer New South Wales. It was a pretty choppy sea in the afternoon, the locals were waxing their surfboards hoping it would stay that way until the morning.

On A Clear Day
Camped by a Billabong
Once a jolly swagman, camped by a billabong… A short walk from my campsite, a picture-perfect scene, very soothing and calming, very easy to photograph. This scene alone made the trip worthwhile.

Waterfall
A beautiful day to discover this waterfall after a short hike. Taken with an iPhone 5, balanced on a precipice, it was late in the afternoon with the sun setting behind the subject, not ideal lighting but we take what we can get sometimes. A spectacular sight, but there’s another Continue Reading
