Cuddles with Mum Like all marsupial babies, baby koalas are called joeys. A koala joey is the size of a jellybean! It has no hair, no ears, and is blind. Joeys crawl into their mother's pouch immediately after birth, and stay there for about six months. That's about how long it takes for them to see, grow ears and hair, and walk (or waddle) on their own. When they're about six months old, joeys venture out into the world, although they stay pretty close to their mother—usually by riding on her back. www.nationalgeographic.org/media/koala-and-joey/
Look what I found at the end of my street yesterday. I'm so lucky to be able to see these beautiful creatures in the wild.
CL 89 Oh What a Beautiful Morning!
Sunrise this morning was a bit of a corker don't you agree? I haven't been out to shoot the sunrise in quite some time so I am absolutely thrilled to have walked away with this one. This is the same morning as the #88
An incredible storm cell over Raby Bay brought amazing lightning and LOTS or torrential rain.
I came across this image over the weekend and realised that I never edited it. It makes me wish that I was on a tropical island and not heading off to work
A stunning way to begin a day - I don't mind missing a sleep in when I am greeted with scenes like this.
A fiery sunset over Cleveland Point last night. My heart goes out to those who have lost their homes and to those who are being evacuated and have no idea if their homes are still standing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. To all the fire fighters - you are the bravest of the brave and we can't thank you enough for what you do.

A wide view of our beautiful Raby Bay Harbour. If you have never been - hop on a train from Brisbane as it will drop you right on the doorstep to this stunning spot. You can dine at one of the many restaurants on the boardwalk or come on a Sunday and visit the markets before having a bite to eat here. Its a great day out and you will love it.
A stunning sunrise in Cleveland - I love getting shots of the reflections in the harbour.
The fiery twilight colours over Cleveland Point was due to terrible bush fires this past week. My heart goes out to those who have lost their homes and to those who are being evacuated and have no idea if their homes are still standing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. To all the fire fighters - you are the bravest of the brave and we can't thank you enough for what you do.
A series of storms swept through Brisbane giving some welcome relief after the temperature rose to the high thirties today. This image was taken at Raby Bay Harbour as the 2nd storm came through. I was so lucky to capture this as it was the only bolt that came down while I was there.
Its a hard life living in the Redlands, imagine having to wake to this view every morning :)
CL 35 Storms Don't Last Forever
Mammatus clouds over Raby Bay - this storm brought rain and hail to the Scenic Rim west of Brisbane but here in Cleveland all we got was this impressive view as it headed out to sea.
Friday nights weather event of low fog sitting over Raby Bay Harbour. It was thick, it was eerie and it was awesome. You could hear the chatter and laughter of the patrons enjoying themselves in the boardwalk restaurants but you just couldn't see them. Morning rain and storms hit Brisbane and much of South-East QLD during Friday morning which allowed for low level moisture to linger for much of the day as it became trapped under thick cloud and wasn’t allowed to evaporate. As the day progressed, the sun struggled to peak through and this allowed the second chain in the process to occur and that was cold temperatures. Brisbane experienced its coldest day in 3 years yesterday and it doesn’t matter if it wasn’t cold in reality… for the region, it was. The increased moisture caused by showers in the atmosphere allowed for the third chain in the process to occur and thats where the increased moisture mixing with cooler temperatures and surface humidity allows clouds to descend and act as fog. www.google.com.au/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=Q1JhWcChKq_M8geSoq0g&...
Cleveland's beautiful mangrove trees. I have been trying to get these mangrove trees at the right tide height for ages. Every time I've headed down to the Point the conditions have not been right - its always been too windy or the tide too low or too high but last week I finally got it right. This was taken away from the sunrise facing south west.

This sunrise was a very subtle sunrise - no bright stunning colours but very pretty nevertheless
An incoming storm heading towards Cleveland. fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you look at it, it didn't amount to anything but it was still great to be out and about shooting again.
CL 33 Every Storm Runs Out Of Rain
Mammatus clouds over Raby Bay - this storm brought rain and hail to the Scenic Rim west of Brisbane but here in Cleveland all we got was this impressive view as it headed out to sea.
I really didn't think that there was going to be a sunset this particular evening as the dark gloomy clouds were coming in thick and fast but Mother Nature has a way of keeping me on my toes.
