Brighton Beach Boxes
A different view to the Dandenong Ranges but periodically I go out on photowalks with other photographers through Meetup.com. A great way to find others who have common interests to you in your local area. Love it! Below are some images of the famous Brighton Beach Boxes. Originally built in the 1800s, these were eventually…
Crested Terns
While at Ricketts Point on Saturday I noticed a number of birds perched on rocks out beyond the rock pools. One of the other photographers headed out that way, his focus was on other things rather than the birds. They all took off into the air and headed in my direction, which was really nice…
Photowalk at Ricketts Point, Beaumaris
Have you heard of Meetup? A great site that is an avenue for organising tons of meetups between people with similar interests. I belong to four different photography meetup groups, two of which I am co-organiser for. On Saturday just gone the other co-organiser planned a photography meet up to take place at Ricketts Point,…
Mordialloc Marina
Finally it was time for me to head back to my car after witnessing and recording a beautiful sunset. My car was parked near the marina so I grabbed some shots as the light began to fade. There was still a pink tinge in the sky.
Early morning at the beach
These are the views that greeted me when I got out of my car. I didn’t know until then that I’d parked near the top of a cliff – I’d not been to that part of the beach before. Early this month I participated in the Kallista Market for the first time. Several people signed…
Cormorants at the beach
I spied this really big bird in the distance and tried to get as close as I could. I had parked near a cliff so you couldn’t get down to a beach but I found my way to a pier through a local yacht club and watched the birds from there. There is a mixture…
A visit to the beach
My husband needed to visit our old family dentist which is miles away from where we now live. So I took the opportunity to visit the beach while he was busy and below are a couple of shots I took of a Pacific Gully in flight.

When Graham had walked far enough we went back to the car so he could just sit in the warm and watch people passing by. Sometimes I would sit with him and other times I could hop out the car to get shots of different things. Even just of the waves rolling in.

I saw a group of seagulls flying and swooping and making their usual raucous noise. But every now and then I heard a smaller sound, a kind of ‘cheep’ from birds of the same or similar colour and size. Closer inspection showed it was a different bird. My husband thought it might be a Tern…

We noticed a flock of pigeons at the beach. Can’t say we’ve ever seen any at the beach before. I often wonder what it is that makes birds take off together in the same direction and turn direction at the same time too. What is the signal they hear, feel or see I wonder?

The sun would peek out occasionally and spotlight different things, in this case the yachts on the horizon.
