Australian Christmas Tree

An Australian Christmas tree in front of the Civic Centre in West Street.

Moondarra Lookout

Lake Moondarra lookout on a nice blue day.

Australia Day

Lake Moondarra from the dam wall. A great place to be for Australia Day, and listening to the Triple J Hottest 100 broadcast.

Sand Blow

Here you can see Double Island Point from the Carlo Sand Blow at Rainbow Beach. It's only a short walk from the car park and well worth the effort for a great view.

Dolphin

A Tin Can Bay dolphin. You can see these almost any day of the year at the Tin Can Bay boat ramp.

Coast Guard

The Tin Can Bay Coast Guard catamaran.

Walking on Water?

No, just paddle surfing. A new way to surf, get fit and have fun.

Roofs

This roofing in Mooloolaba looked very photogenic. It can be found at the Wharf.

Whale Tail

This sculpture/fountain can also be found near the same place. If you look closely at yesterday's picture you might find this picture.

Sculpture

Some interesting sculptures on the Mooloolaba Esplanade shopfront parade.

Painting

This bright painting brings some colour to a wall at Alexandra Headland between Mooloolaba and Maroochydore.

Frog on a Wollemi

| View | Upload your own

This Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog was found on a Wollemi Pine at the Sunshine Coast Wollemi Pine Nursery at Beerwah. I should disclose that I have an interest in this nursery, A) because it's a very beautiful place, and B) I know the couple who run the nursery. End promo:)

Tower In The Road

This communications repeater tower looked to be in the middle of the road as I drove toward it north of Winton yesterday. Yes, this means I'm home in Mount Isa again. I still have some more photos from my coastal adventures to share with you over the coming days, so watch out.

Final Glasshouse

In this photo are Tibberoowuccum left, and the Tunbubudla Twins right. In case you are curious, yes, I have walked/scrambled/climbed up all of these mountains, plus a few more not shown here.

More Mountains

This time you can see Tibrogargan centre left behind the beautiful green fields and Beerburrum centre right further away.

Glasshouse Mountains

This is a view of Coonowrin and Beerwah from Ngungun in the Glasshouse Mountains.

Walking Text

This random art is sandblasted into the pavement as you walk across the bridge. The story is interesting and I think it was a very creative idea. If you want to read the full passage you will have to take a walk across the bridge.

Bridge To Dutton Park

This is the new Eleanor Schonell Bridge at the University of Queensland.

Physics

My favourite subject. This is the physics building at the University of Queensland.

Ocean

The Pacific Ocean at the Richmond River, Ballina. The water is brown due to recent rain and consequent runoff.

Sign

A sign seen on the rock wall at the Ballina bar crossing.

River Rising

A full river in the centre of Lismore. The Winsome Hotel looks like it may have lost some against the floodwaters.

Flooded Road

Today I made a trip to Lismore. Unfortunately the road was covered by water near Bexhill. This bus from Nimbin was just turning around to go the long way round as we arrived.

Kite Surfing

Three kitesurfers were out making the most of a windy day at Caloundra.

New Year 2007

Brisbane on New Year's Eve 2007. You can see two bridges, the Captain Cook Bridge in the foreground and the Story Bridge in the far background.
