One of the wonders of wildflower season in Eneabba, Western Australia.
This little fellow was sitting there just waiting to be photographed on an overcast day. Bayswater Bird Sanctuary
Danish cloud with more than a hint of personality.
Nikon D700 – tripod ISO200 / Bulb 5.8sec / Aperture F22 / Focal length 24mm
Looking like an extra from Star Wars… a yabbie from my Dad’s dam.
Mean old cat, unhappy about the presence of a younger rival. Nikon D200 18-200 lens. Next frame was the hiss and the fangs…very spooky getting this close and being right in the action.

Oh dear…that looks like a pair of sunglasses on the driveway, I wonder who they belong to? The only Mercedes Benz I could afford, and they were sunglasses! May I suggest to bubblers who purchase very expensive sunglasses that while the Mercedes car may be able to withstand the impact of a collision, their sunglasses aren’t too happy about being reversed over in a car. Forget the attempt to use shadow or the colour of the wood grain or getting the framing interesting, this is just me trying to salvage something out of a sea of despair :)
Another photo from the festival in Pang Mapha. The families do such a beautiful job of dressing up the young boys for celebrations before they start their apprenticeship as monks.

A wolf in wolf’s clothing. I was at home in Kallaroo, Western Australia, watching cricket on TV. I do a lot of that; at least according to Carol I do! Australia was losing so I was getting restless. I noticed this Wolf Spider over by the fireplace, eyeing me up. They are a fierce and feisty lot, the Wolf Spiders, and fearless hunters. We share our house with several of these. They mostly allow us the run of the place, but occasionally they get a bit grumpy as this one did after suffering numerous ocular assaults from my flash unit from a range of, oh, all of two inches. He was quite docile for a while; just sat there and let me take pic after pic. But then he started to get a bit angry and agressive. He charged me a couple of times and then started chasing me around the family room. Every time I changed direction he followed me. At one point he actually leapt in the air trying to get to me. No matter that he was about the size of an Aussie fifty cent piece, he was gonna get me no matter what. After a while I was able to appeal to his better nature and eventually he calmed down. Well, let’s be honest, I ran away and he forgot about me. By the time I returned and caught him in a sandwich box and ejected him from the house (wife’s orders) we were back on friendly terms. Of course he’s got plenty of mates around the house, so we’ll have to be on the lookout in case they start plotting The Arachnid’s Revenge. Anyone for a horror movie?
Fluffy clouds! Photographed on the way home from Eneabba in Western Australia. Wildflower season is nearly over but the landscape never fails to impress.
I was meandering on my way home form Eneabba in Western Australia and saw the two tanks from my car. The clouds were so lovely and floaty (technical term only very educated weather people understand ha ha) and the sky so blue… What’s not too love about landscapes like that!
baby water fowl…obviously very young.
One of the competitors in the Blackwood Marathon at the start of the cycle leg. Nikon D700 with 70 – 200mm lens ISO200 / Shutter 1/320 / Aperture F10 / Focal length 120mm
One of the competitors in the Blackwood Marathon swimming leg, Bridgetown, Western Australia Nikon D700 with 70 – 200mm lens ISO200 / Shutter 1/160 / Aperture F9 / Focal length 92mm
Hot day in Toodyay Westyern Australia and the water sprinklers are briefly on …the sun was reflecting off the water spray.
Goose getting up close and personal at the farm today. Oh how I wished I had a ZOOM lens, this was VERY scary I was sure I was going to be attacked,
Sunset on holidays near Denmark in the south of Western Australia. The locals were completing their final burn offs before summer. The area is famous for the beautiful scenery, beaches and wineries.
I don’t know the name of this fantastic flower from Bali but everything in this photo is in twos. Ants, buds, flowers…
This flying fox – or fruit bat – has impressive claws help it to maintain a firm grip while it roosts. Bali, Indonesia. Nikon D80, Nikkor 70 -300, ISO 400, F5.6 @ 1/60.
These incredible craft – I think they’re squid boats – belong to the Bugis people – the sea gypsies of Asia. The tide was out and the boats were trapped in their harbour – a largish river on the north east coast of Bali. There was much painting & repairing going on and no sign of a tourist anywhere… Nikon D80, Nikkor 70 -300, ISO 140, F5.6 @ 1/500. 300mm.
