OZ: True Blue

What I still find truly amazing in Australia is how blue the skies can be on clear days regardless of the time of day or even season. When I first came here, I was baffled that there would be days on end where the skies would be so blue, clear and no clouds in sight.

Cultivating patience

Images captured in this year’s Tour Down Under in Adelaide. Having the patience to stay and watch the 18-lap final Stage 6 of the race held in the city, even under sizzling hot temperatures of the Australian summer, was rewarded when I got the chance to take these images.

Autumn DownUnder

Autumn is undoubtedly my favourite season. I had the chance to go for a drive in the Adelaide Hills over the Easter break and got to see the wonderful myriad of yellows, golden browns, reds and the odd tinge of purples and blues!

These were taken at Mylor, Adelaide Hills, South Australia
