Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary
April 15th, 2012I paid a visit today to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary on the outskirts of Brisbane, the world’s oldest & largest sanctuary of its kind. Obviously the uber-cute, furry, lethargic koalas are the main attraction but there’s so much other Aussie-heavy wildlife on show – kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, wombats, echidnas, a cassowary, snakes, reptiles, and even a platypus which in a country full of strange creatures is the strangest of them all. I took quite a few pictures a sample of which are shown here.

Brisbane Street
April 13th, 2012My walkabout in Brisbane city centre today rather unintentionally turned into a street photography session. I love street photography & while I’m still not comfortable using an SLR for this type of photography (I like to be as inconspicuous as possible) I still had a lot of fun. Here are some of the shots I got… & liked.

Brisbane Walkabout
April 13th, 2012I took a walk around Brisbane today. Just me, my camera, my wide-angle & 50mm prime lenses.

Oz So Far
April 12th, 201212 days I’ve been in Australia now… & it’s 12 days since I did a blog entry. Even when I wasn’t on the road I rarely went 12 days without tending to my blog. There’s a reason for that, that being I haven’t really taken a lot of pictures of late (well I have, just not ones I like). You see while it’s nice an relaxing up here on the Australian Sunshine Coast there’s not really a lot to see & do… & thus not a whole lot to photograph. It’s all suburbia, quaint inland villages, beaches, beachfront promenades & rainforest. I’ve seen them all… and I’ve been to a music festival. And while one may expect a few of those to produce a photo opportunity or two it just hasn’t turned out that way. So suffice to say it has been a slow 12 days for taking pictures. Here are my 6 favourites from the past 12 days, 4 of which are beach pictures (it’s that sort of place).

Malaysia: A Wrap
March 31st, 2012It has been a busy last few days/week & I haven’t had much of a chance to tend to my own blog. I’m almost ashamed to say another blog has been taking up my blogging time this past week. Since my last post I’ve spent a few more days in Malaysia (& Singapore… see the previous entry) and am now in Queensland, Australia. As a wrap of my time in Malaysia here are a few of my favourite Malaysian captures of the last few days.
