Gibson' Steps, Great Ocean Road, Australia

 

Yes, this place gets so many clicks by tourists, including me!

Funnily I did not use a tripod. Nor any filters. Just a simple click.

Bay of Martyrs, Peterborough, Great Ocean Road for Sunday Best

 

Golden hour at Bay of Martyrs where historical genocide took place on local aboriginal population. 

Almost every coast I visited was filled with terrible history. Not a good feel walking these trails. 

I am heading to a volcano crater this morning. Also checking out a few limestone caves. Well, I hope I can find them lol.

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.

Twelve Apostles Sunset Great Ocean Road for Treasure Tuesday

 

I cannot help being cheesy posting a frame that all tourists do here. People are all stampeding the boardwalk in the look out platform. The vibrations ruin my long exposure attempts. 

As I grow older, I prefer to stay away from the people. More like a recluse.

Floating rocks, great ocean road, Australia

This is an image that I think black and white version would show the dynamic elements in the frame better. The rocks look like mushroom almost.

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.

I was lucky to get a celestial light under a thick cloud

Bills really go up a lot. I gonna install a large battery and solar panels to make it worthwhile.

Moonlight Head Beach for Skywatch Friday

 

This was one of the take I did in the past at Wreck Beach. I never seemed to get a decent weather there. 

Joel and I are planning to do this adventure again later this year. Mainly for astro photography along the great ocean road. Hopefully weather is better.

Happy Easter to everyone!

I am doing my mural round in Melbourne today. 

Port Fairy, Victoria, Australia

I recalled this place being really wonderful: the end of drive of great ocean road, Victoria, Australia. This is the nearest spot before reaching Warrnambool - the city that I might work in the following year. 

The water here looks so tranquil and peaceful. In fact, there is all deadly rifts underneath. Still with this wonderful cover of magic hour lighting.

Really cyan blue everywhere I see. This was really a moment.

My long wait is finally worthwhile. It took me 3 weeks to find this moment.

Loch Ard Gorge, Great Ocean Road for Sunday Best

 

As soon as I finish this post, I gonna drive to Wreck Beach. Believe it or not, there is a bit of sun coming through and wind is slowing down to 11 km/hr. Too good to be true.

Great Ocean Road in Port Campbell National Park for Water H2O Thursday

 

In Warrnambool, a lot of Asian restaurants are run by Aussie cooks. It took me a long time to finally discover a Thai restaurant with original Asian style menu. Now I am eating at it on the daily basis. 

There is a location called Magic Rock off Warrnambool coast. However, I cannot access the location as I do not have a 4WD. That was one of my goal to finally get a pic from there. Pity

Hopetoun Waterfalls at Great Ocean Road for Randomosity

 

I used to frequent this location a lot. This was taken before the time a log fell in front of the falls. A co-worker asked for a photo like this, so I found from my large collection of photos. 

It is probably time to go back.

Loch Ard Gorge in Great Ocean Road for Treasure Tuesday

 

It supposed to be a stormy weekend. On Saturday morning, there was a 2-hour cloud break among the thick cumulus clouds. 

I rushed through the routine and driving to a few locations in a hurry. Finally managed to get a few shots both in drones and camera.

Forecast is telling me another week of storms...
