Stopping off at Hawkesbury River

We stopped at the Hawkesbury River on the way to Muogamarra Nature Reserve. It is beautiful and we intend to visit again and stay longer soon. As you can see, there were some lovely rock formations.

Sydney Harbour and Manly from the air

I was lucky enough to fly over Sydney today with the North Sydney Photographic Club for a massively discounted amount. Sydney is beautiful from any angle but from the air, takes on an even more special quality.

Kerry goes national....

Kerry designed two bottles of wine for a big brand here in Australia using a Chineese dragon theme. Needless to say we've sampled the wine and its very nice. The bottles are now available in bottle stores all over Australia. Well done Kerry on an excellent design.

I'm thinking of upgrading our post box...

...to something like the Pelican box below. Maybe an albatross. Or an owl. What do you think?

Storm over Sydney

Check out these storm clouds over Sydney. There was hail and lashings of rain. Traffic came to a stand still. People looked at me like I was crazy when I stopped the car and ventured outside into the pouring rain to get a snap.
