Alnwick Castle

Alnwick Castle is a nice pleasant place to visit. This castle is filmed in Harry Potter and Robin Hood movie.

Pollies roast at Granger market at Northumberland street

This Granger market takes place on the weekends. This is what the local Northumberland residents call "rare breed" pig. 

Quite tasty - juicy and tender. With local apple sauce and herbal mix.

At Newcastle upon Tyne, UK.

Cathedral at Grey Street

Local cathedral. A nice walk along Grey Street.

Roof top of Castle Keep

Never ending climb ...

The view was rather pleasant

Castle Keep of North - At Newcastle upon Tyne

Castle keep is a place kids go to in Newcastle. The place is only 5 min walk from my hotel which is named after an Earl Grey apparently.
Terrible fringing with my crappy camera which was brought along for its light weight.
This castle is 2000 years old apparently. Quite incredible to come to think of these rocks surviving this long.

The stairs to the roof was a little similar to the experience of rock climbing. 

4 pounds for the entry fee

King's chamber - quite small and sad looking. I would prefer my hotel room.

The great hall - where the king has his meetings... The top part has a ring of corridor for archers to stand by looking down into the centre of the hall ...

Foot print on the sand

The foot prints on the left were left by Grey Giant Kangaroos

Sand Dune at Mungo Lake

Directional lighting makes good contrast. Though this is a plain picture, it has interesting pattern.

"Great Wall of China" in Mungo Lake

This is Great Wall of China from Mungo Lake. Quite weird that this view did not remind me of anything that resembled a wall or Chinese heritage at all...

The typical short budget excuse has blocked off any entry to get a closer look at the spot!

Red Look Out at Mungo National Park

I love the look. Though there were so many flies trying to get into my lung, the place was well worth the visit.

Sand Dune at Mungo National Park

The Sand Dune at Vingar Well of Mungo Lake.

This was such an adventure that both Joel and I were so exhausted in completing this trail of desert walk.

Some texture photo opportunities were definitely worth it.

Cumberland Waterfall

This is the little cascade waterfall - Cumberland in North East Victoria. The lush green from the old day Pentax gear was somewhat nostalgic.

Big Head Chicken

Thanks to my brother, Alan. I have never tasted Xin Jian Food - north west of China. The restaurant is only 2 km from where my mum lives. 

The sauce is spicy with a touch of meaty creamy taste. The noodle are chewy. It is what I called comfort food.

Sichuan Sour Pickled Cabbage Fish

Nice poetry on the porcelain. Warm and chilli soup. It is a dish that always enlightens me every Friday evening.

Motor Bike

I am not an expert on bike. Doesn't this bike look pretty? 

It would be hard for the bike to run on rough service or hilly roads.

Twice cooked pork

The nice twice cooked pork Joel had.

Breakie

Yummy breakie with Joel at Cafe Aura

Ninety Miles Beach

At lake entrance, this beach is well known. The gale had made the walk quite difficult. But I enjoyed the fresh air though.

Morwell pub food

The great lamb shanks from Italian Australian Club in Morwell.

Nice big chunks of lamb.

Lake Bunga, Gippsland

This was a fresh water lake near Lake Entrance, Victoria. In fact, this beach was much nicer than Nnety Miles Beach off Lake entrance beach walk way.

Olympus 12mm f2 rendered the rich colour and refreshing feeling of the day!

Joel and I had a good weekend.

Brunswick Street

Looks rusty and retro. Brunswick street.

Maffra drive

The morning drive was quite nice in Maffra. This place is renown for dairy products and milk production.

I love the fog on the day.

Car lights

Car lights. Nice bokeh. 150mm f2

Desk

Voigtlander 35mm f1.2 on my desk. Yes, reading journals is so boring...

Some almonds help me through the boring nights.

Sunset after work outside Traralgon house

Olympus PM2 shot with 12mm f2 outside my house. A nice sunset after work.

Swanston street

A quick street snap.

Mount Taggerty, Victoria

Mount Taggerty river has that edge. The ambient and graceful water flow.

On the way to South Gippsland

Old derelict house like this one turned out nicely on Reala film. I deliberately under processed it to render that aged atmosphere.

With 12 mm voigtlander on range finder R4A!!

Feeling like taking close up shot!

So tiny. Hard to capture it on camera. 

One roof over another

The eaves and roofs I saw from Forbidden city.

Jian Xu Stone Garden

Jian Xu stone garden. Love the feel of the ruggedness.

Bridge

Sepia conversion kind of casts that retro feel.

Macro

65mm macro on wanderer. Thin depth of field.

Angry looking sky

I was lost in the snow river national park. Yes, this is where the man from snow river was riding his horse. The sky looked kind of like Armageddon.

Garden variety

I miss the bokeh from 50mm f1.2 against green backgrounds

7mm view

I rediscovered the beauty of Olympus 7-14mm f4

Random snap in Joel's house. Funny that the micro four thirds adaptor worked well!

Silver Crisscross

50mm. Painted branches in South Bank

12 mm nostalgia

Typical distortion from 12mm. On Voigtlander R3A with provia 400. Yes, I know not a good landscape film to saturate the colour. But the film grain feel is something I miss greatly.

Graffiti

Graffiti

Lake Fyans

Water can cast that feel of mysteriousness. 

Colour bottle full of rice wine

Dig the colour. Bottle show.

Capeway Light Tower

Usually light tower does not interest me. But this one was the only worthwhile to notice in this region. South West to Warrnambool 

Top of Snow river national park

Love the feel from the photo.
