November 2007 (November 2007)Thanks to Curtis coming down from Tallahassee frequently the past couple of months, there has been lots of hiking and photo ops.
Low tide shots disclaimer: No animals were hurt (EVER) in any of my photos. Although some were temporarily moved for the shot, everybody was put carefully back exactly where they were found. Many even smiled for me. :) |

North-West_1956 These images are scans from Kodak Transparencies taken by my Father in 1956 when he toured the north west of Australia in his Wolseley sedan. It was a hard journey over rough unsealed roads and supplies, including extra fuel, had to be carried in the vehicle. I believe the trip took six weeks and he was accompanied by his friends Cyril and Tony. These scenes are now over 50 years old and of historical interest. Titles and descriptions have been added where possible. |
