sometimes, usually for a very brief period, the whole cosmos comes into clear focus but normally existence is like one huge, unfathomable, cryptic crossword.
Railway Mutton Curry. Born to weather the long and arduous train travels in the times of the Raj. Mutton cooked with onions and tomatoes. A melange of spices. And perfumed with a special aromatic spice mix. Enjoy !!
Mutton Bird Point on the east coast of Lord Howe Island, NSW, Australia, is a nesting area for sea birds.
Mutton Cove Conservation Park is a park in South Australia and is nearby to Snapper Point, Lefevre Peninsula .Mutton Cove aim to preserve the diverse vegetation of Mutton Cove and to protect the habitat of native birds, reptiles and migratory birds. The Mutton Cove Ships’ Graveyard is one of five abandonment sites within the Port Adelaide area. The Excelsior was built in Scotland and first worked on the north coast of NSW and later from Tahiti. In the early 1900s it transferred to the control of flour millers (John Darling and Sons) (1908) and the SA Farmers Union Cooperative (1912). In its later life it was a coal hulk before being laid up and abandoned.
After recently having three weeks holiday which included a week in Coffs Harbour, I'm finally getting around to sorting through some images. I snapped this shot on our second day there just as the weather was closing in, as it does. Anyone familiar with the Coffs coast (Mid north coast N.S.W) knows that you can experience four seasons in a day !
None the less, I ended up with some decent shots from the trip & had a blast re-visiting the area. One of the best things about the mid north coast is that there are endless photo opprtunities as there are just so many beaches, bays & little coves.
We have close friends that live in the area so I will get to explore more of the coastline on our next trip down. This shot was taken on Jordan Esplanade facing north towards Mutton Bird Island.
Although this isn't your typical 'postcard' shot of Mutton Bird Island I feel it's still an integral part of the image thus including a detailed description of the area I was shooting in at the time.

Located approx 440km south of Brisbane & 540km north of Sydney lies Coffs Harbour, a coastal city with a population of around 70' 000.
Coffs harbour houses 'Mutton Bird Island' which is a sacred and very significant site to the local Gumbaynggirr Aboriginal people, who call the island Giidayn Miirral.
Home to thousands of wedge-tailed shearwaters, also known as muttonbirds, the island is a protected Nature Reserve. Shearwaters are named for their ability to cut or shear the water with their wings as they skim across the surface. Early settlers called them muttonbirds for their fatty mutton-like flesh.
The muttonbirds spend the Australian winter in South-East Asia and travel thousands of kilometres each year to return to the same burrow on Muttonbird Island in August.
A pair of birds take turns incubating one single egg and also share the raising of their chick. They forage for food during the day and return to the burrow just after dusk. The muttonbirds leave the island for their annual migration in late April.
My ninth build in my Iron Builder round vs. Carl Merriam using the white seed piece.
Well it seems I'm in a Miniland groove here. It really is a fun and versatile style to work in, but I think I've gotten it out of my system (for now!) and will try something new tomorrow. :)
Side Note: I choose the name off the top of my head, so it doesn't refer to anyone real. However, the first entry in a google search for the name turns up this dude, who looks to be about the right era and he's totally rocking those Morpheus specs.
Another longish exposure from my visit in March.
I had expected the overcast conditions, but not how windy it was. The wind made it tricky to take long exposures, and was the reason I handheld the camera to photograph the grey seal colony.

An incredible sunset from Mutton Bird Island, Coffs Harbour from our recent road trip along the east coast.
It was our first time in Coffs and we really liked it. Apart from nearly being blown off the island from the severe winds it turned out to be a great sunset.
