Show us your photos

oh, mate! you got there! was that the joint you posted a while back and wanted to have another go at?

First decent sunset for weeks.

Hey Supa,
That’s on fire.
I see the wreck is nearly wrecked.
Good stuff all round mate!

There’s a eerie calmness at the moment before this swell hits , going to be a few father son teams washed into the lagoon, hopefully unscathed . Some big low tides again next week so more crap should be cut up and removed . No idea what they will do with the 52 tonne of counterweight . It will take some serious volume of gas to cut through , into pieces small enough to physically carry onto their boat . Ideally they could scull drag the tracks and counter weight out further and create a dive spot further out from the break . Highly doubt they would do this however .

Went for a little drive up to SE Qld this last week and went for an overnight walk up on the Main Range National Park.
Took very few photos but thought this one's a keeper.
What I particularly like is that you can see quite clearly the eroded remains of the Focal Peak shield volcano in that distant ridge.
And if you look closely you can see Focal Peak itself, the central point, sitting just behind that ridge.
25 million years of processes right in front of you.

And I nearly forgot - down on the coast, pies are somewhere around $7 these days.
The cost of a pie in a small, inland old-school town? $4.50.
Wins all round.

Amazing what a bit of wind and water can do.
Interesting topography in the foreground as well with the gentle sloping ridge above a basalt(?) escarpment?

AndyM. Hi fella. Hope you are well.

Beautiful photo with two distinct perspectives.

Old town bakeries in Australia, still trying to keep a pie under the $5 mark.
That would please Freeride76, he judges countries GDP ( Gross Domestic Pie) economics on the cost of pies, I think he once stated that you know a country is becoming very expensive when pies go above the $5 mark.

Many of the ridges of the Great Dividing Range are the back half of extinct and ancient calderas. AW

Distracted - below is the view from that rocky shelf (Lizard Point).

Yeah as far as I know it's largely basalt with some trachyte (The Steamers formation) and rhyolite in the plugs and sills.

AW, good to hear from you, sounds like you're living large!
Exactly, the Main Range is the eroding western flank of the Main Range shield volcano.
And I suppose an old-Australia town like Killarney just isn't going to cop expensive pies!
Such a different world out there, under three hours from Brisbane but barely in the 21st century, which certainly isn't all bad.

AndyM. Good stuff, enjoying your dialogue and photos, keep it up.
The next iteration of mine and Supas journey heads to the Mentawais this afternoon. Life’s good. AW

Looking forward to the photos and stories AW.
