A few years ago, Mildura hosted the World Hot Air Balloon Championships. I headed up there for a few days to enjoy the event. Travelling with the competitors was great as I got to see how quickly they measured the weather conditions and set up their balloons. About 80 balloons were raised at about the same time, many of them side-by-side like this, in a rush to take advantage of the best wind conditions. Not only were they pushing against each other on the ground, but the balloons would also bump each other in the air, it was really an amazing sight.

Mungo National Park lies mostly within the Willandra Lakes Region World Heritage Area and is listed in recognition of its Aboriginal heritage and preserved information of past climates. The lunette (pictured), otherwise known as the ‘Walls of China’, stretches roughly 25km along the now dry lake’s eastern shore and contain extremely well preserved campfires, cooking hearths and burials.

Please someone find me an excuse for the long weekend in march 2008 so I can get out of going to my nephews weeding. Shock horror I hear some of you say why wouldnt youa ttend the wedding. To fill you in, i moved away from the country town my family all lie in when i was 19 and came to Melbourne. So giving away my age I have not lived there for 26 years. over that time i always made the effort to go and visit them at the start it was 3-4 times a year and then about 10 years ago it dwindled to twice a year and now im struggling to even spend 3 days visiting them. From the time i moved my brother and sister and their family have every year made several work and social trips to Melbourne and this continues on still and out of the 26 years my brother has visited me once, when my dad was in hospital down here and dying and my sister has visited me about 10 times in all. Yes I am the black sheep who managed to escape a small country town and succeed or should i say survive ok without ever asking for their assistance. This in no way has enthused me to visit them often and when I was their last xmas I felt like I was intruding and not welcome. Now my sister has told me to keep that long weekend in March free for her sons wedding and I should bring a partner (they dont know i have a partner of 3 months). I jokingly said why would i subject my family on anyone and boy did she not get the joke. So please feel free to save me from sitting at another family event being ignored, not allowed to have an opinion just so they can show off.

A scanned image – so I can’t guarentee the print quality as much as my normal camera images. But I like it so here it is…..

The paddle steamer Melbourne regularly plies the Murray River and here she is seen coming out of one of the many locks that she encounters on her journey. This was initially a colour slide and I did the sepia process in Channel Mixer.

This old paddle steamer still does regular runs along Victoria’s Murray River and is hugely popular as a two or three day floating hotel. Here she is seen giving a blast on her whistle as she leaves one of the many locks that she encounters on her journey.
