Botany Bay
Photographed from near the kiosk at Brighton-le-sands.
Looking east across the bay towards Kurnell and La Perouse.
My minimalist interpretation of the bay.

What a great surprise to see this beautiful dolphin doing a "strand-feed" in the shallow tidal creek at Botany Bay, SC. He was by himself, which is unusual, as the dolphins usually "strand-feed in groups or pods. When I first saw him I initially thought he had "beached" himself, but a moment later the water exploded, and he was chasing (trying to "strand") mullets (fish) in the shallows.
My only regret is that I didn't do a video of this exciting action. Next time....
Interesting video of the "strand-feeding" action in SC. from U-Tube...
This splendid Phalaenopsis (Moth) orchid produced eight striking flowers which lasted for many weeks. I`m not too sure of their colour description but I do know that I loved them & received many compliments for them.

LE at Botany Bay from last week. Caroline and I visited some of the bays surrounding Broadstairs. Took a few long exposures. This was about a minute according to the meta data. This is a really lovely spot. Can only thank Matt for introducing us to this beautiful part of the world...

Edisto Island, South Carolina.
“One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself, 'What if I had never seen this before? What if I knew I would never see it again?" ~ Rachel Carson.
A beautiful morning begins with the sun rising over the Atlantic Ocean at Botany Bay, South Carolina. The Botany Bay Wildlife Management area on Edisto Island encompasses more than 3,000 acres of beach, tidal wet lands and forest with diverse flora and fauna. This is a wonderful place to hike, kayak, or just explore the beach area.
Thank you for your visit. I appreciate your views, faves, and comments!
Today at 'The Beach' on Botany Bay, Sydney.
Main north-south runway, Sydney (Mascot) Airport.
Near Kyeemagh and the Cooks River.
Wednesday, 1st May, 2024.
So today I had to travel for work to Monterey on the far side of Sydney. The return journey takes you past the airport on General Holmes Drive (or, actually, under the runways in a tunnel, lol)
But before you enter the tunnel you can exit onto a side road and access a beach on Botany Bay known as 'The Beach'. This allows you to photograph planes as they land and take-off, etc. This is something I have never done before!!
So here's The Steve Miller Band with their song 'Big Jet Airliner' from the 1970s:

A classic Southern scene: a limerock road dripping with Spanish moss and haunting shadows against a somewhat foggy morning with winter light streaming through the trees.
One of my favorite places to shoot, but only in the winter when the sun is low on the horizon. A magical place in the Southern landscape!
The 4,630-acre plantation on Edisto Island was a gift from the Margaret Pepper family. It was given to the state in 1977 by Mr. Pepper, but was only able to be used after his wife passed away so she would have the opportunity to continue her years on the land she loved, as per her husband's request.
In July 2008, the land - now a Wildlife Management Area operated by South Carolina's Department of Natural Resources - was made open to the public.
Botany Bay Plantation The land itself is full of nature's rich beauty - from the sunflower fields to the salt marsh and fresh water ponds to the Spanish moss draped oaks to the miles of private beach; it is emblematic of South Carolina's unique environment.
