Faces

This could be a tad boring. But I love photographing faces, particularly unposed. Some of these are from a long time ago; before I was born.

Distance

I am obsessed with distance. There is a view near where I live where I can see a 1500 m mountain; I can see it between a gap in the great divide.

Port Phillip Bay

It is 120 km away. Australia is old and flat, mostly. To see this far is unusual. We don’t have any Rockies, Himalayas, Andes, or Swiss Alps. Tasmania is craggy, but it’s highest peak is a little over 1600 m. I have seen further than 120 km over land before (in Aus) but only when I have been standing on mountains looking over to other mountains. It’s 440 m elevation where I live and most mornings I see my mountain. This keeps me in check.

Curiosity

Have you ever been curious about the enormity of it all?

Banksia trees and stars at Rosebud

Swans and planes landing in the distance (90 km away)

Tea tree and stars

Botany

Well, I don’t really study plants. I like to take photos of them sometimes.

 

Oh and btw I just noticed there is a registration process for this April; apologies for ignoring it and not becoming #1994 but my energy levels have not allowed it.

Blog for blog’s sake. A.

Blogging has not been high on my list for most 2016. I can probably come up with lots of excuses why but I think they would be wrong. It’s just mild depression,  I just shut down on a lot of things. Anyway I thought I would unofficially add to the April thingo challenge as well. Why not. I’m a bit late – but not in the Western Hemisphere. Here’s A. Astronomy.
