Fashion should be fun and with my photography I love to create those fun moments.
Travel
Sydney > London QF1
It's been a few years since leaving the beautiful beaches in the middle of summer time to head to the northern hemisphere for work, that was one blessing from covid, I got to enjoy more of our aussie summer, but then did I ? ( floods/bushfires ) Anyway, heading north
take off, tankers at Kurnell
Boat Harbour
Burning Palms and Era beach Royal National Park
Lake Burragorang, part of Warragamba Dam
near Fletcher's lookout
Blue Mountains National Park
looking towards Jenolan
Megalong Valley
Oberon ( visited here on my road trip back from Ceduna about 2 years ago )
Just South of Bathurst ( If I was sitting right side I would be looking at Bathurst right now )
Wyangela
Cadia Valley Mine ( Just south of Orange, again, if I was sitting on the right I would be looking at Orange )
heading to NSW outback
but lots of clouds, pretty much stretching from White Cliffs, Sturt National Park all the way to Alice Springs and up to Broome
left overs from tropical storms in Darwin and right acros the top of the Northern Territory
so not much to see
every half hour I stick my head out to have a look
and a little break in the clouds and I see this
with a river running in this dry arid landscape, this could very well be the Kallakoopah Creek in the Simpson desert
yes, for sure this is Simpson desert
Special place
glad I got to see it
Simpson desert probably as big as Germany
then the clouds back again, Uluru is under there somewhere
Western Australia
lots of people suffering down there at the moment with historic floods cutting of remote towns
sun slowly setting, will we make it to the coastline for sunset
going to be cutting it fine
this is literally part of the Kimberley floods right now
flying super close to Fitzroy crossing, and this whole region is currently devasted by the floods
sunset
won't make it to the coastline
North west of Broome
could be the Lennard River
if the plane was not delayed by 30 min, we would be getting some incredible sunset shots
Walcott Inlet
Fletcher Islands
so many islands here, and according to google maps, a lot of these don't even have names
Yawajaba Island
last light, and then don't see daylight again till after we land in London
Satellite photo around the 4-5 hour flight across Australia, showing all the clouds
and then overlay it with this shot showing the flight track
and then the night flight from Singapore to London, 14 hr flight and I managed to sleep for about 7 hours
