Digger's Rest...



...is insanely pretty!

2nd Unit are “camping” at diggers rest. About an hour and a half away from Kununurra.

I throw the air-quotes around the term “camping” because it’s actually quite civilised.

We have a 4-person tent each, a nifty camp bed, chair, and light.

There’s running water for showers (if you get in early it’s hot), flushing toilets, and even facilities for washing the dust out of your clothes (‘tis quite dusty up here in northern WA)

Here are some more photos from my little day-off excursion to Emma Gorge and El Questro.


Amalia Gorge – in the El Questro Park. Swimming here was a little cold – but worth it.


Awesome tree on the way out to Emma Gorge

Arty photo of the week


Tent-city; there are over 80 tents in a small area – so people are getting quite neighborly.

last night a whole bunch of the crew tried to stay-up and see the meteor shower.
one massive one, and a bunch of little falling stars, caused many to abandon the vigil at midnight; turns out it was a smart move on their behalf, as I didn't see any more spectacular ones at the "scheduled" time...


Another angle of the tents at night.

Time for that regular segment known as
PHOTO FROM THE ARCHIVES


This week it’s a shot of the summer ski-jump training jumps on Blackcomb Mountain, Whistler BC, Canada circa 2001.

Well, it’s time I got back to planning my recording requirements for the next 2 weeks

See ya
