It's been a while since I've put up a photo from my beloved Italy, so today I thought that I would share this photo of the Colosseum in Rome. I took this photo in the afternoon after exploring the inside of this world famous landmark on our way back to our hotel. As you can [...]
When the Great Alpine Road of Victoria was blocked off on the way to Mt Hotham, we instead had to take the road up through Falls Creek to get to the coast. It turned out to be an absolutely beautiful drive up the forested slopes to the alpine village of Falls Creek, high up on [...]
We had only really gone through Canberra for one reason – To go to the Vietnamese Embassy to get our visas for our future trip. I was glad that we had made the choice to go here as the Australian War Memorial alone was a good enough reason to visit the city. From Canberra, we [...]
On our first day in Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, we had to stop at the head quarters to sort out our National Park passes. These beautiful Superb Starlings were all over the place here, and I couldn't get over how colourful they are. It took quite a few goes to get a decent photo as [...]
I looked up at the names covering the dark grey metal wall. Thousands and thousands of them covered the length of each of the long walls of the huge hall. Almost as many plastic red poppies were bunched next to them where people had found the name of a long dead relative. Somewhere among the [...]
After a long drive from Canberra through the beautiful snowy mountains of New South Wales, we camped for the night right on the Murray River near Towong. In this photo, I am standing on the New South Wales side of the river, while Towong is in Victoria on the other side. The Murray River is [...]
Since we had unexpectedly headed north again to Glen Davis, we had to head south towards Bathurst instead of west like we had planned. To make the most of it, we decided to take the back road through Sofala, a historic town from the old gold rush days. Gold was aplenty around Bathurst during the [...]
There wasn't a lot happening around Wisemans Ferry, and all we really got from our camping spot was a whole lot of mosquito bites, so after a quick breakfast and a shower, we packed up and continued on our journey. Our path today wouldn't really take us very far south, but instead on more of a westward direction as [...]
We only went to Glen Davis in New South Wales, Australia, because the campsite that we chose didn't work out. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as we would have missed out on this beautiful sight otherwise. I shot this panorama while standing in the streets of this old shale oil mining [...]
The van rocked and strained as I edged it through a gutter that had been carved through the dirt road by the rain. Although it was dry now, at sometime in the recent past there must have been heavy rains that had washed away much of the top layer of the road, and all that [...]
