Hanmer Springs 27-29 June
Another camera club field trip to wintery Hanmer. The club drove into the Clarence Valley via Jacks Pass to see the historic Accommodation House.
Friends Henk & Joy join us for a hot drink before wandering off to take photos. The temperature was pretty much at zero. By mid afternoon it was snowing in earnest and we just got out to Hanmer before the pass closed. Pretty exciting.
FLOODS! 31 July
Amberley’s worst floods in decades. 150mm of rain fell in just 24 hours. We suffered nothing more than a puggy lawn for some days but others fared considerably worse. The poor residents at the beach were evacuated and many houses in the township were flooded by the normally passive Dock Creek which broke its banks due to delays in opening a flood gate.
Never miss a photo opportunity :-)
A boiling sea breaching the stopbank (what stopbank?) and spilling into the road to the golf course.
RPS Lake Heron 22–24 August
Every photographer was spoilt with abundant outstanding scenery. This image is the Maori Lakes, on the way to Lake Heron.
Ngakuta Bay 30 August
Mist lifting off the water with Roger recording the event with his new camera.
Roger turns 40-something. October
We celebrated Roger’s birthday a day early and got in the Stag for a drive to My Lyford for lunch. Perfect roads, weather, food and the Stag performed faultlessly.
Lake Brunner (Moana) West Coast 24–26 October
The West Coast will reward any photographer with its rich landscapes and lighting.
RPS Black Powder Shoot, Kopara Village. 25th Oct
We explored the Moana area as thoroughly as possible in the allowable time—visiting little remote Kopara Village, north of Moana, hosted the annual Black Powder Shoot where locals and visitors get together and test their skills with modern muskets. A veritable mine of action shots for the photographer.
Sunrise on Lake Brunner 26 Oct
Another Dawn Breaker. With an early night and full tum, the early start was a breeze.
