Portland and surrounds

An old farm cottage on the way to Portland

I love derelict, old buildings. They are often photogenic and it's evocative to think of their pasts and the "memories" they must have.  Don't think this one would have had much of a mortgage though, even in its heyday.

Beach at Cape Bridgewater

Blowhole

Petrified forest

It is thought this was created after a forest of Moonah trees was smothered by sand.  Water seeping through the sand created a crust on the tree trunks.  When they decayed, the petrified forest remained.

Walk up highest sea cliffs in Victoria

I did this walk to see a seal colony.  However, the view from 130 metres up was a bit distant and there weren't many seals; they were all out fishing.  Still, a nice walk and the colour of the ocean was beautiful.
