For over four decades I have been a rail and bus photographer.
However, during this time I have aimed the lens at other subjects, be they different transportation, scenery, buildings and other bollocks.
Given these do not really fit the scope of my other sites, I felt compelled to set up a new site so as to inflict my other photographic garbage upon the world.
While primarily Philippine and Australian content, there will be the occasional forays into Fiji and Hong Kong. Perhaps other locations should the current pandemic ever allow it.
So sit back and enjoy, or hate, even be indifferent. That choice is purely up to you.

COOGEE BEACH 2008


 Coogee Beach

Sydney, Australia


Time for a little change of pace, as we divert from the usual Philippine posts, to look at a location more local (well, for me anyway).
 I haven't done a huge amount of this sort of photography around Sydney, which is something I sort of regret now.
Coogee is a beachside suburb to the south-east of the 'City of Sydney'.
 The name comes from the Aboriginal word 'koojah' which, unfortunately, means 'smelly place'. Probably a fact that is left off any tourism material. :-)

Look, a seagull.

rather long day.

Beyond the reserve is the suburb of Coogee.
