Something to make your jaw ache
No. I did not take these photos. My sister-in-law’s cousin forwarded the pics to me. Or something like that. But I can tell you, if I had been there (at a place described as the ’22 kilometre Lake Lindsay overland…
Among my many annoying habits…
…is my uncanny ability to land a really good park – it’s like an Olympic sport to me. I despise bad parks. And I have not lost my touch despite being bush-bound for three years. . A few basic good-park…
Monotones and My Girl
One of my favourite bloggers is holding a little contest on her blog at the moment. It’s calling for black-and-white images from bloggy photographers, and while I don’t tend to do the ‘who has the best photo’ thing too often…
