Dragon in the water


Just outside the flat I looked over the edge into the river and saw this which I think is called a bearded dragon. The small mangrove plant is about 2 to 3 cm across, for scale.

The Young Endeavour


This ship 'Young Endeavour' just motored past the flat! Looks fun, wouldn't be fun up in the rigging in a swell or gale though!

A treeflower


Taken in the Botanical Gardens in Brisbane.

Rolling Wave Cloud NZ

An old photo from 2000 I think, just found it again. This was approaching a beach near Nelson on a summer day, like a shark slowly creeping up. Not that slow actually, about 60kph at least. It was sunny, people were sunbathing, they didn't know what was about to hit them...

Tree Canopy on Witches Fall walk


This is a pretty view of the tree canopy, you can see there are a lot of palms.

Witches Fall Walk


This is a fig tree on the Witches Fall walk which is down the front of Mt Tamborine, a popular flying site (hang gliding and paragliding) here.
