There are some wonderful images posted here

I have a few to share but will need to first find them. Too much chasing birds and native orchids.

Here are a few until I find more

#1 Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens

Located in the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria

Alfred Nicholas Memorial Garden is the original garden of the historic Burnham Beeches estate, renowned for its extensive water features.

#2 Craig's Hut Sunrise

Craig's Hut is one of the most famous High Country huts. Perched atop Clear Hills, Craig's Hut offers stunning views of the ranges and is one of the region's most photographed landmarks.

First built as a set for The Man From Snowy River film, the hut has now become an iconic symbol of Australia's settler history.

Drive, horse-ride, mountain-bike, fly or hike. But however you get to the hut, make sure to pack a picnic or book a spot on a local tour to Craig's Hut and enjoy a catered feast, complete with mountain tales.

#3 Stepping stones at Big Peninsula Tunnel

As part of the McMahons Creek and Reefton goldfield, the Yarra River was known to have carried good gold, and from the 1850's the riverbed underwent alluvial mining and was sluiced for gold.

Sluicing was the practice of using running water to break down gold-bearing earth. At Big Peninsula miners were reported to obtain around five to six grains of gold per dish considerably short of the 480 grains that comprised an ounce.

In 1864, the Yarra River deviated at Big Peninsula. A tunnel was hand dug through the narrowest point of the rocky hillside to divert water flow and expose nearly tow miles of natural riverbed for gold extraction purposes. This allowed miners to scour a river bed without having to worry about strong or deep water flow.

The tunnel is around 2 metres in height and width, 25 metres long and was so effective that the former course of the river has become overgrown with vegetation and is now incorporated into the surrounding scrub.

Today it is a lovely place to explore, enjoy a picnic or a swim on a hot day. The watercourse at the tunnel entrance has created a terrific little pool that is almost spa-like. There are formed stepping stones across the river that allow viewing from both sides very easy, although the river is accessed by a steep track.

Melbourne by night. Just as I remember it from 2007/8. Never went during the day as I was based near Geelong.

Taken in Spain in the days before the Brexit madness brought chaos and disruption. Still looking for the vaccine but I guess that comes in 2022.

Views from the top of the hill that my house sits upon.
All the way to Ibiza (150km) and Majorca (250km).
