Smoke Haze Sunrise Over Perth - November 26 2011
These Photos were taken on Sunday November 26 2011.
Perth awoke to a smoky morning which was the result overnight winds pushing smoke from bushfires in the Margaret River region which have been burning over the last week.

The Suburban Bird Plague
While the East coast of Australia has just seen some of the wettest weather on record in 2010, over here in Western Australia we recorded our second driest year on record.

For Lovers Of Canon And Coffee.....
This showed up in the post today:
It’s a replica Canon 24-105 f/4 IS Coffee Cup! Now I can combine my love of Canon and Coffee! LOL
There is also a 70-200 f/4 Travel Mug but that one is a bit hard to find at the moment and was handed out to the press by Canon during the Winter Olympics. Canon has started to sell them in Canada, so they might be made available to the world wide market soon.
Perth Australia Day Skyworks 2010

My original plan was to shoot alongside the river, but the tide had come in late in the afternoon, and there wasn’t anywhere good to stand since the water level had covered the beach and it was hard to get a clear shot of the city skyline so I decided t…
