The Cape-To-Cape Track - Part 1: Cape Naturaliste to Injidup Beach

The Cape to Cape track is a 135 kilometer long walk along the cape region of Southwest Western Australia. It connects the Cape Naturaliste in the North with Cape Leeuwin in the south and leads through a versatile Landscape that offers almost everything...

2015-01-18 The Margaret River Airport

Ok we're starting this post off with some old cars but don't just go back to playing candy crush! The airport pics are further down... :) These old car wrecks are scattered around the outside of Margs' airport and surely greet all arrivals with a feeling of "Welcome to the Wild Wild West!" :)

January 11th 2015

This is my first attempt at making an animated GIF. About 20 images grouped together in Photoshop and animated upon export.

Time travelling in 15 minutes

If travelling East from Margaret River on Rosa Brook Rd, you will eventually pass this intriguing old general store...

Silent Sentries

Despite multiple visits to this quiet place, I always get inspired and amazed by the sight of these trees in the middle of the Margaret River.

Hamelin Harmony

What a start in the new year! Oh, and happy new year to you all!! :)

Since we've been very(very!) busy in the last days of 2014 with planning, renovating and moving into our new place I haven't gotten the chance to take any pictures before the end of the year. So to turn things around a little bit, I headed down south to Hamelin Bay on the evening of Januray 1st to enjoy and photograph the first sunset of the year(I could have done the first sunrise but that normally involves getting up and unreasonable hours ;) )

The Shire of Margaret River and Augusta

Right... it's been bloody ages since I last posted here...

Cascades on the Margaret River

 With all  the trouble my computer and the hard drives are giving me a the moment, I find it hard to dedicate time to go out and shoot. Just yesterday, while running a backup, my PC crashed repeatedly, until I found out that it was the backup software, of all things, that caused the issues...

Rails to Trails (Margaret River > Cowaramup) and a horror story...

Here we are again... the last two weeks have been rather troublesome... 

The Fremantle Power Station - In Black And White

Okay okay I can already hear an outcry from all you color lovers out there - but bear with me!

I have made two separate posts for the Fremantle Power Station: One in black and white and one in color. I simply liked both looks(albeit the B/W a little more) and wanted to share both versions with you.

For now, let's just enjoy the sheer might of this abandoned and, as some say, haunted temple of steel, concrete and broken glass in the raw beauty that is black and white...

The Fremantle Power Station - In Color

Righto, here we are with our second edition of the Fremantle Power Station.

The colored version of the images brings justice to all the wall art inside the ruins and also shows a sense of decay that is happening in this building which is empty since 1985 - the year I was born!

Freo Harbor

Well, well, well! I wasn't actually planning to photograph Fremantle last night...
But we finished the Fremantle Power Station Earlier than expected, so I used the extra time to explore the local turf and take a few shots.

A short stunt on the streets of Perth

Yesterday was a really productive day! First of all I ran into the city to do some small shopping and I decided to bring my camera along. With my nifty fifty lens mounted and an hour to spare I rushed through the CBD and took a few shots along the way...

Jane Brook in the hills of Perth

Last night I felt the urge to go out and do some little exploring so I grabbed my gear(well, most of it!) and hit the road. I knew that John Forrest National Park borders on our suburbs so it should be pretty easy to find a track that leads into the NP...

Woodbridge House

Sorry I didn't have internet for the last week or so, but here's what I've been up to recently:

This is Woodbridge House in, well, Woodbridge, Western Australia

Vintage Lilies And Indiana Bridges

Although the Arum Lilies are a real "predator" for the local forests, they certainly make for some fascinating subjects. Currently the forests around Margaret River are packed full with Arum Lilies and walking through these forests makes you feel like you're in a dream...

Flowers and, um... Cow-ers!?

 You gotta love the variety of the Australian outdoors...

A week in the southwest - Margaret River, Augusta and Dunsborough

A series of images from last week's holiday stunt in the south. We visited some of the beaches in Dunsborough, Augusta and Conto's, went whale watching and had gone for endless strolls through the bush and forests of the region with our friend's dog 'Mia'...
