My best friend's sister is a natural. I couldn't wait to throw some cute clothes on her and have her model! I'm happy to say this is my second successful photo shoot with my new camera! I can't wait to see my work transform. Hard work pays off!
I wrecked my bike in early December. I took the skin off my hand and scraped up my elbow and leg. I also broke my arm (radial head). This was taken the morning after the wreck.
This train is being consumed by nature little by little. It's located right after Paranapiacaba's entrace and it's a quite a sight.
All wrecked and plans growing all around it, with the city on one side and the native "Atlantic Jungle" (Mata Atlantica) on the other.
The Garden Island Ships' Graveyard, in the North Arm of the Port Adelaide River, offers paddlers a chance to experience part of South Australia's early maritime history.
The 26 wrecks at Garden Island are part of one of the world's largest and most diverse ships' graveyards. Boasting the remains of sailing ships, steamers, motor vessels, ferries, barges, dredgers and pontoons, the site provides a unique glimpse into our past.
The mudflats the wrecks lay on are bounded by mangroves – one of the few remaining systems in metropolitan Adelaide. This eco-system provides a habitat for dolphins, other marine creatures and bird species, enhancing a recreational paddler's experience.
The trail is marked by three on-water signs near the main group of wrecks, as well as two on-land signs at the Garden Island boat ramp.

HELVETIA (NORWEGIAN)
Location of Wreck: Rhossili
Date of Wreck: 01/11/1887
Cargo: 500 tonnes of timber
The Helvetia was a Norwegian Barque (Three Masted), she was travelling from Campellton (New Brunswick-Canada) to Swansea on the 31st October 1887 she reached Mumbles Head and was waiting for a Pilot, but by 8 o’clock next morning the wind had reached Gale Force conditions. The ship was forced to slip anchor and found herself perilously close to the infamous Helwick sand bank off Mumbles where she lost a substantial part of her deck overboard and sailed west along the Gower coast where she rounded at Worms Head and sought shelter in Rhossili Bay to wait for better weather the captain even went ashore along with the local coastguard believing that all was well until the wind suddenly changed direction and strengthened, ripping the anchor free of the sands and driving the Helvetia perilously close to the expansive sands of Rhossili beach where the order was given to abandon ship with all of the crew making it safely ashore.

"The Swan River ferry Mayflower is said to lie somewhere on the western side of the creek but the only wreck I could find there looked too small to be the remains of the Mayflower. The wreck, showing a timber sternpost and a couple of steel frames projecting above the water, lies at the bottom of a private garden. A much larger wreck, the remains of a flat or barge, lies at the very southern end of the creek. At low tide it is exposed. Only the flat bottom of the barge and the stubs of the futtocks remain. A simple but double ended shape is evident" Nick Burningham, Messing about in Earnest, 2003, p377. www.librarything.com/work/8223567/book/44119380
This is the wreck that brought Life Flight to our parking lot last night.
