The final “catch-up” is the 2018 Tyabb Airshow. The Tyabb show occurs on the year that Avalon does not (even number year) and takes place at the Tyabb airfield. It is not as big a show and has a much more relaxed feel but does seem to become more busy Read more…
Peter and I have discussed going and photographing a rodeo for over five years now and, finally, we got off our tushes and did it. The Healesville rodeo is a fairly new rodeo to Victoria but it was a good bit of fun and had a really fun and “community” Read more…
2018, Yeah! And to start out the photographic efforts for 2018, an overnight road trip to Nhill Victoria via Ballarat, Ararat, Moyston, Halls Gap and Dimboola. A lot of history and older buildings and signs. Towns like Dimboola felt almost as if time was not running at the same pace, Read more…
There were other things to be photographed in 2017 and I thought I’d post them up together to bring 2017 to a close. There was the Friday practice at the Melbourne F1, the Royal Melbourne Show, the city and, of course, old signs.
A afternoon trip around the ‘hood, and stopping, finally, at the Australian National Aviation Museum. I can’t believe it has taken me this long to get around to getting back there but if you are ever in the area, it is worth a stop if you have an interest in Read more…

In July, Donna and I took a break and spent a week in Brisbane. Met up with a friend, saw the Marvel exhibition at QAGOMA and found a local, favourite place to eat. And wandering Brisbane provided many photographic opportunities.
An odd numbered year is always a good thing; Avalon Airshow! The stand-out item, again, was the pride the American Airforce ground crew show in their work. It is great to see and really does indicate a level of professionalism and team work.
In January and February 2017 Peter, Jill, Donna and I embarked out on a tour to see Bruce Springsteen perform. Five concerts in three cities, Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne. It was a great trip with good company and many enjoyable concerts and a chance to get out and see a Read more…
And, to finish up on 2016, part 2
And now it really has been a long time between posts. But time to get back and posting again. I’m sure it’s no surprise that the photographs have continued in the intervening space of time, sometimes more, sometimes not as much. But to get the ball rolling, and to get Read more…
