Sunset from Eleebana, Lake Macquarie, NSW Australia Taken with Canon 450D SLR, 17-85mm lens, polarising filter
Shot with Canon 350D, Sigma 17-70mm lens. The sand dunes at Birubi Beach are just stunning. With the right light it’s almost impossible to take a bad photo of these wonderful objects of nature. And so it was in December 2008 when the sunset painted just the right light on the wind-swept ripples in the sand, creating a wonderful scene to capture. These photos were taken during my family’s christmas holidays at the end of 2008. I’m glad I finally found the time to finish processing these – it reminded me of what a beautiful location it was.

The track to the top of Tomaree Head (Port Stephens) is not what it used to be; yes, it’s still very steep and windy as it makes its way to the summit ~ but the original goat track has now been replaced by something way too civilised, a cement path! The view south is well worth the potential coronary :) and Zenith Beach is still as beautiful as ever….....and, these days there is a national park to protect it all ~ Tomaree National Park.
Hunter Valley Gardens, Pokolbin NSW Australia. A beautiful place to visit with a immense variety of flora.

Pastel on Sanded Paper / Horseshoe Beach is on the other side of the breakwall to Nobbys Beach and is a popular beach where dogs are allowed to roam free.
Pastel on Sanded Paper / Nobbys Beach is one of the most well-known beaches in Newcastle. Nobbys Lighthouse sits atop the cliff overlooking the beach. I love painting the early morning light on the beach.

This site is for those interested in promoting the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens and the Hunter River regions of New South Wales Australia. The aim is to show the world what we have to offer. After all we have unlimited beaches, rivers, lakes, mountains, vineyards, just to name a few. For years the area has been cloaked in its industrial cloud, now that has lifted and others are seeing this area for the wonderful easy lifestyle that it can offer. All photo images, artistic drawings, writing, journals and clothing are encouraged.
The work submitted must clearly identify the area and must be accomanpied by a description of where it is and what it is. Images of animals and flowers will be accepted AS LONG AS THESE IMAGES SHOW A SIGNIFICANCE TO NEWCASTLE AND THE REGION. So if its just an image of an animal without the scenery identification, then it will be rejected – there are other groups who cater for this work. THIS GROUP IS TO PROMOTE THE BEAUTY OF THE REGION.
Even though there is an unlimited number of images allowed in the group, there is a limit of 3 images per person per day. This is mainly to make it fair to others in the group who suddenly might find their work buried immediately in distant pages.
No Nudity or inappropriate behavioural images
