Tropical Spring
This metal lighthouse makes an impact as we enter a clearing. We have walked through dense bush, from one side of the Isand to the other. It is Spring on the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland, Australia, the only human inhabitants of this tropical paradise is the lighthouse keeper and his family.
Coral
Coral, Great Barrier Reef, Queensland, Australia. I’m in awe of the quality of the pictures taken with a Kodak disposable underwater camera. My snorkelling and flippering skilled left a lot to be desired.
Underwater selfie
We had a pre-wedding holiday with our family in October last year. The underwater disposable camera was an impulse purchase for our snorkelling trip to the Barrier Reef, Australia. A lack of film processing shops and moving house contributed to a delay in getting the pictures developed. Of course I had forgotten that this was one of the shots.
Shady spot
A handmade
Place in shade.
Birds watched,
Time snatched.
Present here,
Life’s clear.

Secure
Rusted barrel still safely locked,
Marker on way or where we‘ve been.
Trusted path, a familiar scene.
Starker truth, bike’s long since been hocked.
Taken just off Parramatta Road, Sydney, Australia.

Last roses
The autumn chill creeps
Slowly into shadows
And evenings come earlier.
Bright daytime stars
Remind me of what was
And is to come.
