A gorgeous spring morning in Esperance by

It was late September 2007 and Betty and I were enjoying a few days in Esperance on Western Australia’s Southern Ocean coast some 700+ kms from Perth.Here we are looking down over the delightful West Bay, barely a kilometre out of town, and the cruise boat (on which Betty’s brother was a passenger) is setting off for a delightful morning tour of some of the islands that comprise the Recherche Archipelago. We had done this cruise the previous year and it is a beauty.
As always on this trip I was using my Sony DSC R1 in aperture priority mode and with an nd8 filter attached.

    Sensational coastline.. must visit this someday.

  • You must indeed – and sooner rather than later. It’ll blow you away. I just wish it was a bit closer, that’s all!

    Beautiful scene again Peter the colors are so bright

  • Thanks Julie. It’s not always as calm and serene as this, of course, but when it is it’s just wonderful.

    This would be a bit hard to take too. A beautiful shot Mate.

  • Thanks Al mate. I thought of you today when I saw the pictures of that chemical factory fire. Were you inconvenienced at all?

    The schools on the northern side of the lake were all closed so I had Elaine and three grandkids here. Apart from that, no worries. Thanks a lot Mate.

  • Great – thanks for letting me know
