2009 Photostream : This Gallery contains a collection of stand alone photographs that I like but which don't deserve a Gallery of their own. It's a quick place for me to file a random collection of pictures.

2009 Teddy Bear & Fuzzy Cthulu Picnic : Each January, Kylie & David organise a picnic in a park.

This year the theme was teddy bears, although people with fuzzy cthulus (cthulhus?) and other types of stuffed animals were allowed to bring them too.

I brought my oldest penguin, 31 1911, to the picnic. (He came with a label that said 'Hello. My name is 31 1911 Fluffy Penguin.' Since he WAS a fluffy penguin, that couldn't be his name, so that led to the obvious conclusion that his first name was 31 and his surname 1911.)

Anyway: 31 doesn't appear in this small collection of photos from the picnic. It was held in the late afternoon of Saturday 31st January 2009: a hot day, but not as hot as the record run of three days over 40 degrees that preceded it.

2008 Albert Park Lake : The more we walk, the longer the walks seem to become. On Sunday 7th December 2008 we walked around Albert Park Lake and found a large variety of bird life. Most of the bird photos in this gallery were photographed using my 70-300 lens which, sadly, following a walk in a rainstorm at Mount Buffalo earlier this year now needs to be focussed manually: which is a very delicate manoeuvre, since long lenses need to be spot on to get a sharp picture.

MacRobertson Bridge Walk : The MacRobertson Bridge was built as a scheme to create employment during the Great Depression. It was funded by Sir Macpherson Robertson, who had made a fortune selling MacRobertson chocolates.

Along the walk (in May 2008) we got some good sightings of a range of birds and some dusk shots as the sun set.

2007 Cucina Italiana (Italian Cooking) : I used to learn Italian, and Dennis still does. The other night his Italian class started talking about Italian cooking, and Dennis started talking about how he had made ravioli for a dinner party we had recently. As the conversation went on the class increasingly decided that it might be more fun to have a night of cooking instead of sitting in one of the CAE's classrooms and talking about food. Antoinette kindly offered up her house as a venue. Here are my photos of the production of the meal.

2007 Somewhere near Bowral : In May 2007, work sent me and the rest of my team to "somewhere near Bowral" for a couple of days. (I describe it as "somewhere near Bowral" because about six years ago there was a very successful Technical Conference held in Bowral that was very successful.) This session was held nearby: in Peppers Manor House, Sutton Forest, NSW.

One morning I got up early and took photos in the mist. The Southern Highlands in New South Wales are very photogenic.

2007 Birds of Buffalo : Whilst camping at Mount Buffalo in Easter 2007, for the first time ever I was able to get a reasonably good collection of bird photographs. This was because a) we were up there for nine days, which meant lots of photo opportunities, b) I had a new 70-300mm lens, which made getting close much easier, and c) some birds (especially the kookaburra) seemed especially keen to be photographed.

I'll put the species names onto these photos as soon as I find my book of Australian Birds.

2007 Kittywalk Climber : Two cats in one apartment... with no connection to the outside world... They seem happy enough, but we feel an obligation to go out of our way to make sure they get given a range of interesting diversions. The most recent was a Kittywalk Climber. This is a five level tower that hangs from the back of a door. Fortunately, we have one door in the apartment that serves no useful pupose. Until now!

2006 Tim and Jo's Wedding : On 31st December 2006, Jo and Tim got married in the Fitzroy Gardens. It was a truly delightful ceremony. It felt very relaxed, flowed very smoothly and just 'felt happy'. Which I guess is precisely what you'd want.

The reception was at The Provincial in Fitzroy.
