As the sun lowered in the sky on this late afternoon walk the last rays of warm sunshine are a contrast to the cooling forest. The damp starts to settle in and the warmth of a nearby cottage starts to call. This is the karri forest surrounding the Gloucester Tree…

I absolutely love the forest floor of the WA Kari Forests, and what better than to have the colour and detail of the leaf litter raised up to a more convenient height for photographing by a very obliging xamia palm leaf? It's the glistening wet, the dynamic colour, the high…

There were many good photographs captured in a recent (May 2017) family holiday to our frequent stomping ground of the Karri Forests of Pemberton, Western Australia. This one photograph I keep coming back to, least expected though I have to admit. I snapped the photograph when quickly walking back from…

Back at Kalbarri in Westen Australia's mid-west region for a family holiday, I've been snapping some new pics of the area. Fitting photography in around a 1 year old's eat and sleep routine is not impossible but it does preclude photography at one of the ideal times of day: evening/sunset.…

A nice sunset with golden light on the farmland and clouds. A green grass tree in the foreground provides nice contrast to the scene beyond. A rainbow is visible in the far distance on the right horizon - a pot of gold at it's base perhaps? Taken in Gidgegannup, Western…

Dinner at Lake Leschenaultia

The other night we took fish & chips to the local Lake Leschenaultia, to watch the sunset and enjoy the peace and quiet. It's pure serenity at the lake late in the afternoon and evening when the crowds have gone home but the gates are still open. The wildlife is…

I enjoyed the opportunity to photograph a strangely cooperative dragonfly the other night. It was nicely sitting on our lime tree.
