Hey Ya'all, great to see some more activity here

This one is from a recent trip up to our wonderful border between QLD and NSW, where i could choose which timezone to be in depending on my mood and also which telstra tower my phone picked up :) on the bright side there is this awesome jetty used solely to pump sand around :)

Whenever I'm at Duranbah or Snappers, I'm focussed on surfing, not landscapes. Gerry you've absolutely nailed it, like always. The first two are outstanding, the third is out of this world.

We have a valley just a short walk from our home. It is filled with the stuff just about every morning. Quite happy for Gerry to come with his bucket and spade to collect some.

ha, that last one was with the bigstopper from B+W on a day when it was blowing a gale - hence B+W bigstopper is the mist maker :)

always keen to go up there, more so for some less photographed falls, might be up there Sunday week if your keen.

always love this spot at Leura, this one was a one hiding on the harddrive from 2014 waiting to be processed :)
