Lunar Eclipse

One last parting shot of the partially eclipsed Moon.

Mudjimba Island

Mudjimba Island, seen from Mudjimba Beach.

Hidden Crescent

A wide angle sunset view of the early stages of the Lunar Eclipse over Mudjimba. If you look very closely off the tip of the island you will just make out a small crescent, largely hidden by the low cloud.

Lunar Eclipse

The eclipsed lunar disc appears to glow among the cloud as it climbs above Earth's thin and salty atmosphere on the western edge of the Pacific Ocean.

Pleiades Eclipse

Lunar Eclipse near Pleiades, maybe tonight the sisters can catch the Moon.

Mudjimba Eclipse

The longest partial Lunar Eclipse in my lifetime, as seen over Mudjimba Island on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, Australia. The ideal shot of the moon rising over the sea was not possible due to the distant cloud on the horizon, but once it popped above the clouds it was still a sight to behold.

Maleny Astro Night

An hour of Earth's rotation is captured in a minute, with a stacked version of the photos in the last few frames.

Starry Ficus

A fig tree on the Maleny Trail under the stars. You can just make out the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, Canopus and Orion among the bright sky of a half moon.

Maleny Trail

The Maleny trail passes by the Maleny Golf Club with some wonderful panoramic views.

Ficus Sunset

A ficus sunset at the Maleny Trail near the Maleny Golf Club.

The Blinker

The East Cardinal Mark or the Blinker about 6nm offshore near Mooloolaba.

Cartwright View

The view of Point Cartwright and Lighthouse on a cool, blustery westerly day.

Torquoise

The water at Tangalooma Wrecks truly was some of the clearest torquoise greeen I've ever seen.

Ocean Beach

Moreton's Ocean Beach looking to the south of Cape Moreton.

Cape Moreton Lighthouse

Around the tip of the cape you can see the cliffs with the Cape Moreton Lighthouse atop.

Cape Moreton

A quick trip up to Cape Moreton was a must on a calm day.

Water Views

The spectacular water views from the boat while anchored off the Tangalooma wrecks.

Tangalooma Wrecks

One of the Tangalooma wrecks. It sure has changed since I was last there in the mid 80s. Corrosion reduces everything in time.

Approaching Tangalooma

The approach to Tangalooma on Moreton Island is very easy on a calm day.
