Mt Kaputar National Park
This image was taken in Mt Kaputar National Park in 2005. I went for a spring drive north to the national parks inland and up the coast. It's been five years since I did the trip and this is the first to be posted.
Storm front
In December 2005 I went on a cruise on the James Craig. This shot was taken on deck just before the storm broke and we all hid downstairs.

Black swan
In Australia we have black swans. They can be quite aggressive and I remember being chased by one in Centennial Park. This shot was taken in Bicentennial Park, now Olympic park with a Sony Cybershot. I never liked the camera and pleaded until they gave in and got a Canon 10D. I never knew they had red eyes.
Letterbox
This image is of a letterbox in the area around Bathurst, NSW. The letterboxes are usually on minor roads which don't get much traffic (except for locals) as they are usually dirt roads. I have taken photographs of a few of them over the years and maybe some like "the phantom" will appear at a later date.
Doggie bag
Taken behind the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney this image give new meaning to the term doggie bag.
Clinging on
The image isn't that interesting visually but what is happening is. This image shows a fig tree, probably a Port Jackson fig (Ficus rubiginosa). The description from wikipedia says it "forms a spreading densely shading tree when mature, and may reach 30 m (100 ft) in height, although it rarely exceeds 10 m (30 ft) in the Sydney region". So here we have a tree with a potential to reach 30 m clinging to the side of a retaining wall just behind the Opera House in Sydney. Surely an interesting struggle.
