Finding rubish that's been dumped in a natural environment is often upsetting, but, occasionally it's interesting.

The Whipstick; A forest of extremes.

Kite riders on St.Kilda beach.

After a long slow trip from the CBD, dealing with traffic blocked up by road works near Southern Cross station. It seems there’s a degree of traffic on the water too. The kite riders were out in force, making the most of a sunny day and a very strong off shore breeze. I’d like to try that. My car was caked in salt when I got back to it!

Central Victoria.

On my way home last night I suddenly felt the motivation the onset of Summer can give. The sun was starting to set, it was just past 8PM. day light savings was kicking in. The clouds were hanging around, but it was wonderfully warm. The clouds had a glowing pink/red, the crickets were singing and I could smell the Eucalypts. Nothing seemed impossible last night. Today the suns out in full force. There's a haze coming of the Iron barks. Summers nearly here.

Brighton.

The bay has been home to a lot of cargo carriers lately. Another thunder storm over the bay. It can look stunning when there are clouds, rain and sun; all competing to put on a show.
Summers nearly here, can't wait for that hot days cool off with a dip in the sea. Maybe the back beach at Gunnamatta this year.
