  • Sale airshow – the ground display

      The airshow was small, regional, and absolutely charming. Instead of a bunch of modern fighters and bombers, all five senses of aviation enthusiasts were treated to classic aircraft from the 30s to the 50s. Plus, there was impressive aerobatics… Continue reading

  • The Long Jetty and Minnehaha

      Went on a long and interesting day trip around some pretty cool spots. Kicked off with a little waterfall called Minnehaha Falls (yeah, seriously – Minnehaha!). Really lovely place. Then, after a quick lunch stop at a Danish restaurant… Continue reading

  • Golden Autumn in Daylesford

                            When I posted some autumn photos from the cemetery, it reminded me that a while back (definitely not this year — I wrote this in 2024), I took… Continue reading

  • Sunset by the Shore and Melbourne City

      A couple of recent photo albums. Funny thing is, both of them were shot quickly and without much effort. One was even just on my way to work. Sunset at Lang Lang Beach There’s a tiny caravan park for… Continue reading

  • Water and Sculptures

    Here’s a little album from sunset at Patterson Lakes – a pretty posh part of Melbourne. People park their yachts right out the front of their homes. The sunset didn’t really work out though, ‘cause the sky got all cloudy.… Continue reading

  • Lake Eildon

    The last album from 2021 is from a trip to Lake Eildon. I nicknamed it the “Aussie Seliger” – because it really looks like it! Big, wild-shaped, beautiful, and a popular spot for water-based holidays. The difference is, our “Seliger”… Continue reading

  • More photos from Swan Hill

       A night-time light, water, laser, sound and fire show in Swan Hill. The fountains spray water while lasers project images onto the spray. The theme is the history of the Murray River. Pretty impressive! https://www.flickr.com/gp/147740420@N06/1f3HF3 And here’s the seaplane… Continue reading

  • Lake Tyrrell and the mighty Murray River

    Just a short trip and walk up Mount Baw Baw. It’s actually a ski resort, so there aren’t many visitors in summer. But one restaurant was still open. The elevation’s over 1500 metres above sea level. https://www.flickr.com/gp/147740420@N06/4227Ry This one was… Continue reading
