Cleveland coast Brisbane for Treasure Tuesday

 

Joel and I saw the sign saying "gorgeous Red Coast" on the freeway. So we made a turn and explored this region. It turned out Red Coast was not red yet quite dull to visit. Too built up for our liking. 

Then besides the mangrove bush, this abandoned old dock was observed. Few minutes later, the whole ground was covered in water.

Sea view from Burleigh Heads in Gold Coast

 

There are so many lookouts along the Gold Coast. Burleigh Heads is the best location in my view. 

Chilly Bendigo at the moment. I am learning to live in this early winter.

Tangalooma Shipwreck

 

Finally having some time to work through the photos. 

These shipwrecks were deliberately placed at the shore to stop severe currents to the island.

Noosa Sunset for Sky Friday

 Noosa is really over the top with the urban scrawl. I find it unpleasant to travel through. The scenery takes a long while to find.

Tamshui Taipei Taiwan for Sunday Best

 

This is near the river mouth in Taipei district. It looks somewhere in a tropical island. In fact, it is next to ugly concrete jungle.

Kilcunda afternoon sky for Skywatch Friday

 

Kilcunda is becoming more popular for photographers. It is an ideal location to get full milkyway belt above that particular dune. 

However, this place caused me a lot of incidents - camera drowned in that very river, tripod getting taken into the sea, hand and leg lacerations etc. I am told that all haunted places either have a lot of moisture or underground water source.

Sorrento Coast Sunset

 

A while back, I was exploring sea caves along Mornington Peninsula. I kind of like this shot.

Melbourne Night City View as Treasure Tuesday

This is taken during a low tide at Brighton's beach. The night scenery is not bad.

Tenby Point without the mud

 

Mangroves are in this region. Without the low tide, it is more pleasant for long exposure

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.

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.

This was another trip to the hazardous coast. I walked on my left inverted foot and sprained the whole foot as a result. Not fun.

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

Sea Cave in Inverloch

 

The coastline from Inverloch to Hamer's beach is where dinosaur fossils are frequently discovered. There are numerous sea caves along the coastline too. 

This particular cave is very wide. There are many spiders crawling on the ground as well. Not a fun place to stay still.
