If you want to see an internationally recognizable landmark like the Grand Canyon, Mt Everest, Uluru or Great Barrier Reef, perhaps Victoria (the state where I live) isn't the place to visit. We do however have some amazing coastlines, impressive National ...
There’s no bad days for photography
We tried something new for Christmas this year. We drove for 6 hours and setup camp at Thurra River - in Victoria's Croajingolong National Park. From there, a 45 minute hike gets you to Point Hicks - where a working lighthouse marks the spot where Lt. Jam ...

Cloudscapes

Nakuru Safari
In June this year I had the wonderful privilege of spending a day in mini-bus meandering around Lake Nakuru National Park in Kenya. This park is too small to sustain elephants, but we saw plenty of animals up close, including the rare black rhino. I haven ...
