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 !

A lovely spot for lunch and an area that is on the up and up judging by the individually architect designed housing developments along this coastline.

Nambung National Park

March 29, 2013 • Leave a Comment

Now this is a very strange landscape of limestone pinnacle rocks that are spread across a desert area just outside a place called Cervantes. You pay to drive your car round a demarcated route in what is often called the Pinnacle Desert and walk about the pinnacles taking photographs. We had hoped to get good shots at sunset but the sky was very ove...
