Hi Everyone

We are on a 6 week trip of a lifetime visiting Singapore (2 nights), Perth (5 nights), Melbourne (4 nights), touring the South and then the North Islands of New Zealand for nearly a month, finishing with 3 nights in Hong Kong.

A wonderful opportunity to take photographs of so many contrasting cultures and landscapes. We would like to share a selection of images we have taken along the way on our Nikon D7000 and D800 cameras. We hope you enjoy them and continue to follow us on our adventures.

(The most recent post will be the first you will see so by working backwards and through the 'older posts' you will get to the beginning of the trip. Posts will be added when we get the selected images processed and internet access).

Enjoy !

No trip to the beach is complete without a visit to the pier and St Kilda's beach had really nice one. The old wooden structure now houses a Tea Room and the pier itself is due to be redeveloped in 2014.

St Kilda's Beach, Melbourne

This beach is just a 25 minute tram ride from the city center. This sand sculpture is what Fiona thought she would see at Cottesloe Beach in Perth. The most artistic castle we've seen so far.

Artisan Stall, Queen Victoria Market

This stall proved that you can turn any item into a clock - there's those old record things, what did they call them LP's and singles (showing our age now).

This is an icon in Melbourne and houses about 1,000 permanent stalls ranging from gourmet deli's, fruit & veg, meat and fish, gifts, artisan crafts, clothes and the usual gifts. It is absolutely fascinating and worth a 1/2 day visit. The following images depict just some of the goods on sale.
