Thats probably enough for my jetty fix now 🙂
This guy turned up shortly after me, it was still pitch black at the time, but it did not stop him getting setup with his kayak and fishing, gear shortly after the first light came on and it was a very pleasant morning to be out, there was not a breath of wind, the mozzies were bearable and company was quiet 🙂
This is a 3 shot panorama with the middle frame capturing the Kayaker as we both stopped and watched the colours develop.
No comments on this one – I am tired of deleting spam comments, links and videos – having to do that means I can't respond to all those wonderful genuine people who do regularly comment on my images 🙁
Laurieton, NSW.
I sat at this spot, called Wash House Beach, watching a pretty well cloudless sunrise happen thinking, this was not worth hauling my ass outta bed for when I was saved by some quality anti-crap rays (apparently really called anti crepuscular rays however thats a mouth full and no where as near interesting as my version)
Here's a fun fact for ya'all, wash house beach and in particular this fairly small rock shelf is apparently home to over 128 species organisms.. well I only saw one type and that was a single crab 🙂 but he also got to see this wonderful view of ray action 🙂
Just so ya'all know, I have sussed out the solution to all the worlds problems… I have figured I am right since if Chaos and Mayhem can get their lollies together and make up then all the rest of the worlds problems should be a breeze.. 😉 they did not get their nicknames for no reason…
If only the solution was as simple as just sitting down and enjoying a snack together 🙂
Note the deployment of the sprinkles on the hot chocolate, always a winner 🙂 and of course the home made banana bread – there's a story behind that 🙂
Made by yours truly with leet bakin' skillz using bananas grown locally in our community garden Camdenville Paddock Community Garden. I never would have thought you could grow bananas in sydney and ones as awesome as these are, they are now getting to the end where they are getting all black an stuff, but perfect for banana smoothies and banana bread, the former a staple in our household 😉

The Mardi gras plane
You would not think that this aircraft is the better side of 15 years old, its amazing what a coat of new paint, some spanky new logos and a brand name on the bottom can do (yep they ripped that off emirates).
Note the placement of the logo on the engine nacelle inboard and outboard sides, there is clearly alot more thought about pax seeing these when in the aircraft too, oddly tho, the winglet logos are only in the inside…

I still got a barrel load to go 🙂
Here's a tight version of Sugarloaf Creek falls in Willoughby
Being a parent can be a bit of drag somedays, the busted knees from too many legs rides, the crook neck from piggy backs that have gone wrong, the cramps from being squeezed out of bed in the middle of the night – just to digress for a moment.. seriously that bloody song about 10 in the bed and the little one said roll over… thats me, I move an inch and there are two little bodies there immediately to fill that gap and thunk, i end up plastered against the bedside table or on the floor…anyway, thats a few of the negatives…
There are however, moments that will remain with me forever – one of which is when we walk to school, the feeling of that little hand sliding into my mine without either of us barely noticing, a automatic action as we dodge the trees and poles on the walk, that little hand just returns and slips into mine. As cliche as it might sound, that action speaks thousand words,all of which would not even come close to expressing the feeling…
…. then we get to school and its yep.. barely a 'see ya dad' as she disappears off with friends to plot the level of chaos. Thats alright tho 🙂
hey onto lighter notes, heres how to ruin your knees in 2 easy steps, the first weighs in at about 15 kilos and the other over 20….
I am sure what is more interesting, the cool green rocks or the sweet light house and old skool fog-horn 🙂
If you look carefully you might be able to see the two people standing atop the crazy rock outcropping. I like this image image 'cause it creates a neat analogy between the persons, the incoming storm, which yup.. i got wet for, and the light house which is the apparent destination.. They were probably walking back from the lighthouse, since it was getting rather late (9pm-ish) but I won't let that get in the way of a good image-story 🙂
I hope ya'all finding the right path to your light house 🙂
The pure path.
ZOom on in and try and find teh moonball… i rescued it and it is now entertaining a 3 year old 🙂 one less piece of plastic flowing into Sydney Harbour.
5 shot panorama.
I heard alot of that from Sarah, tickles and chaos as I pulled over said ' i gotta take picture of this' Lucky I was driving and in control, or else i would not have gotten to stop every 5 minutes 🙂
So, as my 5 minutes was ticking, it was bit like.. oh my gosh.. oh my gosh.. oh my gosh.. whadda i shoot.. whadda i shoot.. 🙂 followed by, don't these people know it takes longer than 5 minutes to take a photo.. sheesh.. i gotta find my spot, without falling the water. setup me tripod compose the shot.. etc.. and then my 5 minutes is up 🙁
anyway on the up side, this little stream and cute bridge was pretty well the first and only shot from this spot 🙂
