  • SS Sovereign Star ridden by Hamish Cargill from New South Wales competing at the Melbourne Three Day Event, Cross Country phase June 8th 2008. SS Sovereign Star is a 16.2hh, Dark Bay, 10 year old, TB/WB cross gelding owned by Gail Kroon. Eventing is the Equestrian Triathlon – one rider and one horse in Dressage, Cross Country and then Showjumping – this is the extreme sport of Eventing at the highest level. Three-day Eventing, usually abbreviated by horse enthusiasts to “Eventing”, began as a test of the cavalry horse. Military horses were required to travel long distances, negotiate the many natural obstacles, and then perform strict parade manoeuvres. Competitions began in this event in Europe in 1902 and interest in the sport is still concentrated mainly in Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand. Equestrian events have been on the Olympic program since 1900, when jumping events were held during the Olympics in Paris. However, equestrian events were not held again until 1912 in Stockholm. Since that year, the sport has always been on the Olympic program. The program has been remarkably constant. An interesting footnote to Olympic competition is prior to 1952, equestrian sports events during the Olympics were contested by men only. In fact, the riders had to be military athletes. More specifically, they had to be commissioned officers. In 1952 these restrictions were lifted, and since then men and women have competed against each other in the equestrian events.

  • Rough seas in 1893 washed the “SS Dicky” ashore, and like an iceberg, is mostly covered by sand these days. After several days of rough seas again the last few days, most of that sand has been washed away, and she is exposed again. This photo taken about the middle of an incoming tide, the seas were 5 metres (about 15 feet). My lens got a nice soaking during this shoot, and I almost lost my footing (and camera) to the swell.. Canon 50D, 10mm. “SS Dicky” Dicky Beach, Sunshine Coast, QLD.

  • Castel Tirolo, Trentino Alto Adige.

  • Yesterday Scott and I had to go to the North Coast, on an impulse we dropped by Dicky beach on the way home. This is what we found. A good part of the wreck has been removed, after it collapsed from the high seas. The fishermen were driving through the gap with their trucks, and the low tide made it look even more sad and forlorn. I used my infrared camera to capture this image, since middle of the day images just don’t work too well when you’re out on the beach without a tripod. I’ve never shot the wreck from this viewpoint before, and certainly never at this time of day. It is a record shot, however, so that we can all save the view for historical reasons, if nothing else. Thanks for viewing. Canon powershot pro1, 7.2mm, f/3.2, 1/400”, ISO 50. Keeping in mind this is a compact camera, these figures really mean nothing much. Another from the SS Dicky Series

  • One caught a few months back, and one of my favorites of the day, but for some reason I overlooked it. Was the first day I purchased my new Wide Angle lens for the 5D Mk II, full frame. I ended up buying the 16-35mm f2.8 L II, and she is a beauty! All I need now if the time to get out and capture more of the beautiful mother nature at work :) The wreck of the “SS Dicky”, at Dicky Beach, Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. She isn’t looking so good these days, as the sea rips away at the remains every tide. Canon 5D Mk II, 16mm. Available very large and best viewed Large!
