Day Four of Fifteen: Rust Rocks of Bicheno We didn't have a very long drive today, just shy of eighty kilometers along mainly undulating pastoral and agricultural country with some hilly and forested sections that has views of the coast from time to time. Bicheno has a population of around 700 and is not very large but the coast line is interesting. We arrived about 4 hours before the official book-in time and were asked to come back about an hour later when our cabin would be ready. This gave us plenty of time to visit the area where the crayfishing fleet ties up. We also took advantage of the small supermarket to buy supplies as we planned to cook at the cabin tonight. The Cosy Cabin at Bicheno was a nice size and we ... read more

Day Two of Fifteen: High Cliffs Last night we noticed a sign pointing the way to Sheffield, it didn't take long before we were heading south out of town. I had ticked off a few places of interest to visit today, the first being Devil's Gullet. Along the way we both commented how green the countryside appeared. It was mainly farming landscape with sheep and cattle in abundance. I had not taken the still camera out of its case until today when the first impressive site of Mt Roland dominated the view from the car. Within no time the small town of Railton was passed and next Sheffield where we stopped to buy some supplies from the local supermarket. "Everything expensive!" was my girlfriends comment when she got back into the car with two nectarines. ... read more

Well its been a while since putting anything on this site. I gave up photographing kids in kindergartens so my traveling stopped as well. For the last few years I have mainly been shooting Deb Balls, School Socials, University Graduations, Sport Team Photography and Dance Schools all not really interesting to relate to the general public. I have decided to use this site to document trips that I have experienced in the past (hence dates that are not in order) ... read more

Thursday, 11 November 2004 I've been in Griffith since tuesday afternoon when I arrived in the afternoon following a four and half hour drive. The weather on that day was hot enough to drive with the air-conditioner on. I had been to this centre last year but for the life of me, can't remember doing the job. Forty children were photographed yesterday and I worked so hard in the hot sun I became dizzy. The staff have been extremely helpful and this enabled me to do the job well. I'm back at the usual Budget Motel on the eastern end of town. Compared to yesterdays weather which was around twenty six degrees, today has been wet and windy. This will probably be the last job for the company this year.... read more

Tuesday, 12 October 2004 This mornings session at the Kindergarten was the shortest I have experienced. I got to the room at nine o'clock, only eight children needed to be photographed and was finished three-quarters of an hour later. I headed north out of Bendigo, by way of the Midland Highway. This took me to the border town of Echuca, where I crossed the Murray River and into New South Wales. The town of Moama was passed and I was now on the Cobb Highway. At Deniliquin I left the major highways behind and followed a secondary road to the town of Conargo. I was planning to turn towards the east but at the junction I noticed a sign indicating a lookout, seven kilometers north of town lay a flat landscape which promised to stretch between ... read more
