The full circle

Whilst hiking into the Royal National Park at some ungodly hour I had plenty of time to think, in particular I spent alot of time thinking about what I enjoy about photography and why I have continued to do it. I started photography when we used to do lots of bushwalks and it (photography) was just a supplement to the actual walk, over the years it has kinda swung all the way around, I now do locations for photography sessions 🙂 . Today was different, the walk and the location was much more oriented around my old ways, just heading out for a walk to see another piece of awesome aussie landscape. Admittingly, it was timed for sunrise and in the past I would not be doing it in the dark, but hey, the best part of the day is sunrise right ;).
Anyway, I can't remember the last time I treked nearly 10kms just to take a bunch of photos, what awesome spot hopefully more of them – Curacurrong Falls and the Curra Moors Trails.

Snake on a Plane
For the passengers on a Qantas flight from Cairns to Port Moresby it was a calm affair, but for the snake that hitched a ride, it was a matter of “life and death”.

*School Shootings Around the World – An Interesting Map*

I usually keep my posts here out of politics and post happy fun things, but today I came across this article showing school shootings around the world since 1996.

Notice anything strange about this world map? Why does all of China, India, Africa Australia, The Middle East, Most of South America, Most of Europe and Canada NOT have this problem?

Yes there was a China knifing today… that injured 22 children… not killed.. Injured. Yes, this map is not complete.. Yes there are more deaths from suicide, murder, drug war lords etc… But the fact remains… There are a heck of a lot of MORE school related shootings in the USA than anywhere else BY FAR in the whole freaking world.

I'm not posting this for political opinion changing… People have reasons for believing what they do… I don't fault anyone for their beliefs… 🙂 Maybe someone will see this and think… that's all i posted it for 🙂
