Saltworks at Lake Tyrrell for Sunday Best

 

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.

Infrared Pulpit Rock Cape Schanck for Water H2O Thursday

 

No long exposure here. Just a quick snap that gives a totally different feel from the frame. 

I am preparing this post as I had 2 failed to show attendances in my clinic this morning.

Joel works 5 days a week in a senior position of a retail chain. I brought some crispy pork to house during a workday as he works from home. Then I discover that he has yet slept for 48 hours as he is trying to get the server back up for the company. He looks terrible. It reminds me that it is a blessing that I do not need to work everyday anymore. 

I discovered an old film photo from Year 9 that Joel and I travelled to Canberra Australia in 1993. 

I was pissed off that he couldn't stop playing heavy metal on his Walkman. 

Warburton Creek for Water H2O Thursday

 

Last Saturday was pretty much cloudy overcast. So picking a random creek in Warburton again.

Cape Patterson reverse sunset for Sky Watch Friday

 

This is a long exposure shot when I used to visit the coast on my own. Joel only became my company after his separation from his wife.

Lake Boga Milkyway for Thursday Water H2O event

 

This was taken last night. The weather turned good on a new moon night. So I took the camera to the lake side for a snap. Damn, it was so cold -2 degrees Celsius.

Fitzroy Mural for Mural Monday

 

It was a really low key weekend. Joel and I did not get the skating rink candid as they are all kids. We want to avoid the controversy. So it was just a lovely Italian lunch that we end up reading about climate change being the worst in 2023.

Cape Woolamai Rocks for Treasure Tuesday

 

It was really overcast when Joel and I arrived this location on Saturday. We both busted our ankles by tripping on the steep hill down to this rocky area. My thighs are still sore 2 days later. It was a good work out though. 

Not feeling so well after getting back to work again. This must be a sign of ageing.

Amphitheatre Falls, Noojee for Randomosity

 

Amphitheatre Falls at Noojee

Love the vibe and the fun treking around the region. Now sunny weather for the rest of the week. Cant wait to go to Pinnacles again. More photo therapy. 

Joel always took the best spot blocking my camera view!

Toorongo Falls, Noojee for Treasure Tuesday

 

The treasure is the steep climb along the track up to the falls. The woods, lack of mosquitoes and constant sounds of water flow are just so pleasant for my whole day on the weekend. 

This is a frame in a portrait orientation that strikes differently to all the ones on the Instagram. I used to frequent this location in the university days. A lot of memories.

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.
