I know this is not a landscape, but it is my current favourite photograph. I took it one Sunday afternoon in Centre Place in the Melbourne CBD.

Good for a refreshing dip after a hot day.
Christmas with Family and Friends
As much as I love the Barkly, family and friends will always draw me back to Victoria - if only for visits to enjoy extended Christmas celebrations. But instead of the usual Christmas shots, I've picked a few of my favourites of the people I spent it with...
Backyard golf is a bit of fun for Kayla... if only Ed would accept that the ball is not his.
