Boats, mountains, sunset and lake.

outside work.

this is part of a panorama to come, but I'm too lazy to do it right now.

Late afternoon on the rocks at Bicheno on Tasmania's east coast. Crappy weather streaming in from the NW.

A significant part of the south-east of the Australian continent is comprised of granitic diorite and the most southeasterly of the exposed batholithic extrusions runs south through Bass Strait from the Mornington Peninsula, through Flinders Island down through the Bay of Fires to the Freycinet Peninsula. A nice, hard protrusion protects the coastline at Bicheno.

Naturally the sea exploits every weakness but even so, the igneous rock weathers extremely slowly, leaving behind beautiful white sand beaches as the quartzite is the last to go. A thin strip of such beach can be seen in Macleans Bay - behind Diamond Island middle left.

Fire is an important part of the prairie ecosystem. It controls invasive species and allows new grass to grow more easily. More can be read about it here.

What this photo doesn't capture is the crackling sounds the fire makes as it burns. It was louder than I expected it to be.

Happy Sliders Sunday!

sunset in my town

Sometimes the sun just finds a gap in thick cloud and produces a god-like shaft of light from the heavens to the ground. If you are very lucky you can spot one from the air and if you are very, very lucky you can grab a photo! This photo was taken over Hertfordshire just after some heavy rain. The central shaft is illuminating near St Pauls Walden.

Smoke from the wildfires in Western United States made it to the Northeast creating a few days of smoky skies.

*My heart does go out to those affected out west, this just gets worse and worse every year.
