This place is deserty looking. So dry and arid that it is almost iconic for toughness to live in the outback.

My buddy from US is visiting. He is taking 2 kids to visit his parents in Australia. We were very good friends in medical school. All these ups and downs in study and career in the younger years resurfaced from the memory lane.
I am not sure he will be into urban cheap eats or something more into the wilderness like the crazy adventures that I do.
The recent obsession is Urbex in which I do not think a lot of people are into it. I often smell crap and human wastes in these abandoned urban sites.
This image was taken in Lake Tyrrell again - a place I often frequent when I work in these remote outback towns. The light painting is done by an optic tube.

Lake Tyrrell is my regular spot for a sunset snap. Strictly speaking, it is a reverse sunset I am snapping. The word Tyrrell in first nation language means "expanse" or "Space".
Day 2 in Brisbane, I have captured tons of photos. So unmotivated to attend this conference that does not do updates as they should have. I will aim to explore the sunshine coast tomorrow.

This lake is like a woman with menopause. There is such much volatility in its mood variation. She can be charming or cruel.

This is the well known bus abandoned next to the arid part of Victoria. This is where my car gets bombed out a few times - not good karma around here

I visited Lake Tyrrell last night. Solo until midnight. I was lucky to spot the reflection view of Milkyway.

That boardwalk is a controversial installation at Lake Tyrrell. Going through federal court at the moment. Apparently, it is to do with the construction being illegal for the aboriginal community.
I took many Milkyway shots on that circular walk though. The best thing ever for photographers.

Sometimes work trip allows me to get the shot. Finally, first sky mirror from this lake this year. It has been a really wet year here which was supposed to be El Nino here.

I am in a lucky position to work 3 days a week. I post daily on blogspot, Instagram, mastodon and X. Thursday is all consumed on moderating a world page on IG. This is really so busy. I think I over did it again. Really need time to do photography more.

Third time in this location along the unsealed road of Salt works Rd. Many hares manically running away from me as I approached the lake side. I was meaning to go to a site with abandoned tractor coated by thick pink salt. I decided not to do that because of risk of being sand bombed.

Summer is definitely here. Time to get physical and lose some weight. Gonna start intermittent fasting again.

This place is really nice for nature therapy.
In summer, the flies would be everywhere.

GAS - gear acquisition syndrome is something Joel and I have suffered for many decades. We are now debating whether we should acquire a digital medium format system again. I guess that is how we socialise by talking about what we gonna spend money next on.
Australian Open live broadcast is way better this year. After work, I just lie on couch watching it on TV. So not going out much

I come across this on you tube. Love the scenery there!
I forgot it was a public holiday for school kids. So every touristy location is packed by humans. Full stop. I can only photography humans instead.
