Bushwalk

 

Taken with mobile phone on a lovely bushwalk. Delighted to find the silver fern’s koru, which signifies ‘new life and growth’, and the face with the cicada nymph exoskeleton as a tattoo!

Wonderful Shopwindow

On my travels I enjoy looking at shop windows. They can tell a lot about the area. This one was in Geyer, a little town in Germany, which recently celebrated (with a Medieval Festival) that 550 years ago it had officially become a town.

Avenue of the Giants

Avenue of the Giants in Northern California runs through Humboldt Redwoods State Park, which is home to the tallest trees in the world, the amazing Redwoods. It is an absolutely beautiful, quiet and peaceful place, and I feel very lucky to have been able to experience it.

Here comes the rain!

When I visited the Blue Mountains near Sydney, Australia our very experienced tour guide knew that rain was coming. He rushed the bus in high speed from one end of the mountains to another, to a place on the rocks where he knew we would get some good shots before getting soaked. So it’s not mist you see, but it’s the rain coming. It was an awesome experience (albeit somewhat rushed) to see, and smell it all coming toward us, get a few shots and rush back into the bus before the pour down.

Delightful Second Hand Shop

Found some great treasures here during a stroll around Amsterdam one afternoon.
