Old fashioned outback Butcher

The Local Meat chopping block circa  1920


In far north Queensland I found this beautiful old homestead "Laura" which upon investigation I discovered the chopping block in the meat house. I was there in winter which was bloddy hot, i just cant imagine just what it would be like in December, the flies and heat would drive you mad.

Not as cheap a I would have liked but still affordable. This picture was taken using my Nikon D700 on natural light.

Queensland Beach

I love this beach


Normally I would not go on about the same place as much, and certainly not on the same Blog, but this caravan park at Ellis Beach Just north of Cairns Is fantastic. I have not been there for several years now but cant wait to get back. I am not a swimmer by nature but this water was just brilliant, in writing this now I wish I was there.

The Big Orange

Just Near Berri SA you will find the Big Orange.

Looks like the spaceship from the movie 2001 but is in fact a big orange. Some might say it looks terrible on the Australian landscape, it makes a cute print though. This odd feature is on you way to the Flinders Ranges, gateway to the Australian Outback.
But for more traditional Australian outback landscape prints on canvas please go to www.australianphotos.com.au

Australian outback is so rich

Alpine Australian Snow


One thing about this wonderful country of ours is its rich diversity, not only in wildlife but in its landscape.

The other day I skied away from the town and searched for some good photos,  sure I skied out in a blizzard but you don't get photos from inside the lodge.  


Please enjoy some of my Australian alpine snow photos.


Who would guess that It could snow and even freeze lakes in Australia.


Vary cold and windy but a great view.

Not All of Australia is Desert and Kangaroos.


Australian Cattleman Hut in the snow

Hi Everyone, Yesterday I went cross country skiing 22km with all the camera gear to take these pictures. I hope you enjoy them.

like most of you throughout the world you might not realise that Australia has snow falls and a seasonal alpine area.

Wallace's hut,  Cattleman's Hut 11km of skiing from the nearest town. This hut is over 100 years old.
The Inside of the hut taken with a six second exposure, you have to love the original roof and yes I had to carry the tripod the 11km out to the hut and return.

Lots of hard work and fun

Australian outback dog??


Australian outback animal ( Dog?) yes/no


The amazing things you can find in the Australian outback. I was  in the outback and discoverd at a distance what looked like  a large animal, in fact it was a water tower for an abandoned train line converted to look like an animal of sorts. (Some people in the bush have just to much time)


Australian Wild Camel 


So lucky to get up this close, and yes you can find this camel and many more Australian animals at www.australianphotos.com.au

Unusual rock

Nature is amazing the things it can form and make. 

Man is the only creature on the planet to see things not as they are ( just a rock) but what he would like to think they are.

You can buy this on my website if you chose www.australianphotos.com.au It was photographed at the Devils Marbles in the Northern Territory. It is not my intention to upset people with this blog or to be offensive in any way.

It Is titled Hard as a rock.
