We traveled down Chile in a converted truck with young people camping most of the way or staying in Hostels. We camped near Lake Pehoe of Paine Grand

I was out taking photos around sunset and caught the dust blowing through the trees at sunset

Travelling through Namibia we went for an early morning drive to see the sunrise over the dunes at Sossusvlei.

On the Cobb Highway between Hay and Deniliquin we saw this amazing cloud early in the morning.

In Etosha National Park the zebras were fighting to see who would the best!

White-Plumed Honeyeater in my giant salvia in winter has been very hard to capture as they move so quickly. They are very skittish!

travelling through Etosha National Park saw these zebras fighting for supremacy of the herd

At the Deni Ute muster's rodeo a bull rider was thrown off a bucking bull and the rodeo clown step in to divert the bull's rage!

We were on the Chobe River when a family of elephants came down to drink

I could see a storm approaching and knew there would be great light. I drove towards it and took this wonderful light across the Hay plains.

The bull rider just came off with the rodeo clown coming to the rescue at the Hay Rodeo.

On a brief holiday at Port Macquarie I was up early to catch this beautiful light on Flynn's Beach.
