Trip to Esperance and Albany, October 2020

We visited my son Isaac who lives in Esperance, on the south coast of Western Australia. Most of these photos were taken in the Cape Le Grand National Park. There is also one from Albany, which we visited on the way to Esperance.

China trip

In November 2018, I was invited to China in my consultant’s role to provide advice on policy and governance of mining rehabilitation. I still had time to do the tourist thing. Here are my photos from that trip.

Overland Track - Tasmania

In February this year (2016) my wife and I walked the Overland Track. Here are my photos from  that trip. They are a mix of coloured and black and whites.

Cockatoo Island

Cockatoo Island is located in Sydney Harbour, about 1km directly west of the Harbour Bridge. It was first settled as a penal settlement in 1839, and eight years later work began (using convict labour) to turn the Island into major shipping building and repair facility, especially for the Navy. The facilities were finally closed in 1992, and the Island remained unused until 2001, when the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust took over the control of the island and embarked on major restoration works. Work continues today, but the Island was re-opened to the public in 2007.

The old and decaying buildings and infrastructure are a wonderful source of photographs. I visited the island in October this year (2015) and here are my photos.
