The Sugar Dock
25 March 2025
Returning home with almost 3000 raw files to look through from Australia, this is one of my favourites.
Port Douglas was a timely refuge from the Brisbane cyclone and here the more benevolent weather made a lovely pastel sunset sky.
Curtis Falls...

…but gets up again and dusts himself off.
This modest sized waterfall is in the Mount Tamborine area of Queensland.
I’ll probably spend time on better post-production of this scene after the holiday. I have some bracketed exposures that may or may not blend well.
Cape Byron
25 February 2025
The easternmost point of mainland Australia is adjacent to the town of Byron Bay, named after ‘mad,bad and dangerous to know’ Lord Byron’s grandfather.
I noticed in this shot that the shape of the clouds somehow echoes the shape of the white fences.
Old Friends
19 February 2025
So good to be back in Australia for a while, and to catch-up with Chris and his photo walk group. Also ran into this old friend on Sunday’s walk, a sculpture* by the Warners Bay jetty. Happily a passer-by sat down at the end of the jetty, mirroring the pose.
