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'...

Lake Monger, Perth, Western Australia Aug 2014

Perth CBD as seen from the north shore of Lake Monger

I've been meaning to photograph Lake Monger for a long time now. In fact for almost two years! Last Wednesday I had a day off and decided to use this chance to check out the lake and it's stunning vistas on Perth CBD with my good mate Mark...

Lesmurdie Falls, re-visited

Guildford Grammar

Guildford Grammar Chapel - I wanted to shoot this location for over a year now... ironically it's really just 5 minutes down the road from where I live but I always end up shooting other locations further afield.

Avon Descent 2014 - Bells Rapids Section

Wow, what a day!

The water levels of the Swan River are the highest in a decade, the weather was absolutely perfect - blue skies and not a single cloud - and the competitors of the 42nd annual Avon Descent provided a spectacular and thrilling show for hundreds of visitors...

Pines Trail, Margaret River July '14

These are just a few quick snaps from a recent stroll through the pine plantations and forests around Margaret River

Quinninup Falls

Quinninup Falls, Western Australia

Last weekend I headed down south to Margaret River and, while having dinner, I wondered if there are any waterfalls in the area worth seeing. A quick google search brought up a forum post with the title "Secret waterfall in the Margaret River region". I was immediately intrigued!
A little more research revealed that this secret waterfall was only an hours walk from the car park at Moses Rock beach(which isn't strictly Margaret River anymore, but close enough for me...).

Lesmurdie Falls National Park 24/07/2014

Last Thursday I went out on yet again another spontaneous little trip. I have heard a few of my mates at work talk about Lesmurdie Falls and thought I'd check it out...

The Eagle View Walk, John Forrest National Park
