This was taken 1 year ago. This was a nice event where different types of transformers were moving and lighting up above cargoes.

Pulpit Rock, Cape Schanck, Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne

 

Last weekend, we just had to get out of the house despite a stormy gloomy weather. It was mainly the stairs and steps I want to do to get my metabolism going. 

Spam filter here is getting to me again. So, I am trapped in this never ending gotcha moment proving I am not a robot. Sometimes I do feel that I am a robot in this capitalistic world.

Tenby point old jetties for Sunday Best

 

This is lowest tide of the evening from a week ago. There are way too many mozzies potentially carrying encephalitis B virus 

It was a bad planning on my behalf. These muds sink my feet to waist level if I am not being careful at all. So it is all telephoto lens doing the long exposure ineffectively. 

At least this look is not common on instagram feeds.

Erskine waterfalls, Lorne, Victoria

 

Erskine waterfalls is very popular along Great Ocean Road. I used to frequent this location in university days once a month. There is a large Spanish population residing in this town. Local Paella is very nice which is only cooked up every Sunday evening.

Sutton Grange near Bendigo, Victoria for Sunday Best

 

This was captured in Milkyway season in 2022. I was driving mindlessly in country Victoria. 

There were times that farmers came out of their houses with firearms as if I was trespassing while driving passing by their properties.

Princes Pier, Melbourne for Skywatch Friday

 

Due to the foot injury, my pal and I came here after a nice dinner in CBD. As usual, there is a whole line up of photographers at the edge of the pier. A bit busy driving from Bendigo to Melbourne again for Chinese lunar new year. Mum got a whole list of last-minute shopping to do. She wants "fresh" produce as ancestral offering on the lunar new year eve.

Bridgewater Bay Long Exposure

 

I took at least 200 long exposure photos at this location in my last visit where I sustained an avulsion tendon tear in my left ankle. You can see the two people standing on top of the cliff in the distance. It was a worry that I thought one guy was going to push the lady off the cliff for a jump into the sea.

Night light up at Sorrento Melbourne for Tom's Treasure Tuesday

 

I always wanted to do this shot with a puddle reflection, but I never got around to it. however, mission half accomplished when I drove through the Sorrento on the weekend.

Glad that I stopped nearby and took this shot.

Mornington Peninsula Back Beach for Skywatch Friday

 

Last few days strolling along the beach was nice. The temperature actually came down too. more bearable. This is so good that I do not need to stress over anything in the holiday mood.

Purple Sunset and storm clouds in Lake Charm

 

This lake is 40km from where I work. I had a night off and drove to this location to take a snap of this.

MacKenzie Waterfalls, Grampians

 

This is one of the images that I can capture without a tourist in sight. It is kind of a miracle. 

The water is pristinely clean though.

Creek in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia

 

Water can be so soothing. Xmas is truly a silly mad season. After a spiraling runs of various health issues affecting mum and me, my buddy is going through a crisis in marriage...

It is easier to sit by the creek away from the world

Pinnacles, Cape Woolamai

 

Here we go. This is where I sustained all the injuries. Now waiting on Xmas delivery of my various gadgets ...

I picked up a marathon shift to work through Xmas to New Year... Wish me good luck for 24 7 continuous works throughout.

Tenby point sunset, Melbourne

 

This is a long exposure of the mangrove habitat. The shore is rather muddy to walk on. Tons of mud to remove from my shoes before getting into my car ...

Port Campbell National Park, Victoria, Australia

 

I just love this part of my state. The health system is, however, a wreck. If anyone is not well, it is best to jump into the sea water instead of going into any of these hospitals here. At least one would get a natural death. 

I am finally finishing my round of work. It is time to recuperate over the weekends. So many roads were flooded so badly.
