Offically the best named national park in Oz.
Apparently derived from “butibuti,” the local Worimi Aboriginal word meaning “plenty of honey.”
In any case, its got a nice beach
Dome ask, Dome tell.
Unlimited space, unlimited sand…

I had a dream last night that I was cutting carrots with the Grim Reaper, i then
Spectre.
Easter Bunny
Chocolate easter egg hunt ..
soooo…. life is all about motivation, given a little bit of motivation in the form of legal product called sugar and coca (should be outlawed i reckon ) and it’s
amazing 1) how fast these things can be found and 2) how thorough the task of finding them can be carried out..you might see where i’m going here.. the same motivation does not extend to say… the lost toothbrush which is hiding in plain sight even tho said child (s) left it there less than 12 hours ago or the jumper that can’t be found but is lying on the bedroom floor ? or one of the 13 million hair brushes covering nearly every corner of the house…
maybe the answer is attach chocolate eggs to all the mundane items that need to be sourced during the normal course of preparing oneself for the day ahead…
anyways, a good egg hunt (or two) was had by all….

Steaming Fungi.
Ghost fungi, Omphalotus nidiformis
I tried a different technique on these ones, luckily it was pretty late hence I only got a few peeps freaking out about some dude hiding in the bushes…
I
used a black sheet to drape across a couple of tripods, a stinky bin and some spikey plants all in the name of blocking out the street lights and the moon. For these I actually used a torch to light paint the scene and then blend this into the frame with the glowing fungi.I did notice something very cool about these ones – other than the fact you can see the glow under the sheet – that is, they emit steam. It’s either that or the local slugs have taken up a filthy smoking habit.
The Light Painting Itch.
Its 10:30 at night and Sarah Joy messages me, ‘are you still with Rodney Campbell‘ ?
I did contemplate replying truthfully with….. ‘yes and in the process of burning his balls and
whipping him with EL wire…’but common sense got the better of me and I did want to be allowed out again…
This one is pretty neat – single image at 441 seconds (7.5 mins) all lighting done in frame.

Truth Telling.
What do you call a giant mushroom?
Hufungus.
Now lets be clear, these infamous glow in the dark fungi, ghost fungi, Omphalotus nidiformis or what name you choose, do not really glow in the dark.
They are bioluminescent, but really your gonna have more chance of falling off the cliff in the dark whilst trying to spot one of these glowing in the dark on your midnight stroll..To make things worse, you can’t even eat them, apparently they are toxic and will have you in a power vomit before you know it… so offer them to your enemy first…
Rodney Campbell found this monster one in Lane cove, its gotta be the size of a dinner plate!
To see the green glow which they emit, you… More
