time for an update! Looks like I’m pretty bad with keeping my blog up to date on this trip! But well, I’m pretty busy with traveling :) besides the fact that Internet is a hassle in a Australia… Maybe I will discard my current way of posting big Posts and instead going with smaller ones. And I just don’t wanna spend (waste) my time with post processing. Because somehow I’m feeling I have already wasted to much of my very limited time.
The area around Coffs Harbour is the so called Coffs Coast and is on the mid-north coast of New South Wales for those who have the longing to know it exactly :) The Great Dividing Range meets the sea on the Coffs Coast, forming a stunning backdrop to the area’s white beaches. (lucky me having a friend living there… hehe)
So after Sydney I went up the coast and popped into my friends Kay place for a short visit (just over two weeks… lol) BTW she’s an awesome company and we had a lot of fun! Thanks Kay!
So far I’ve been all the way up the Australian East Coast, witnessed once-in-a-hundred-years rainfalls, tsunamis and a damn cyclone. What more could I ask for? lol Well, wasn’t that bad at all in the end and I’m having a blast here. And even with all that weird stuff it’s still better than the weather conditions in Germany! haha
For now I’m back again at my friend Kay for a couple of days… I dropped by as I’m heading back down the coast. So stay tuned ;)
more leaves :) looks like green is becoming my favorite color

my very first attempt in photographing star-trails… I think it looks alright, even if I applied the wrong strategy in shooting it… but boy, never thought it can get that boring down at the cliffs if the camera is making an hour or so exposure and you can’t do anything but wait.
for this one I had to get up early, very early! And I harassed Kay to do the same :) I wanted to be at the headlands before sunrise, so it was quite a fun to climb down the headlands in complete darkness.
here I am, being almost washed away by the waves…

Oh Arthur… it’s been so much fun having you here.. and likewise my friend… you are awesome company too! I will have many happy memories of our time spent together here. We have a similar sense of humour and easy going natures. As I type this you are out at the headland setting up your shoot for another startrail! Me… I’m too tired and just about to head off to bed! Short work hours for me tomorrow so we’ll get to spend more time together then. Enjoy your visit to Kiwiland… lol and then down to the Great Ocean Rd.. I’m so tempted and still thinking about it.. but there’s that old #@%#%$@….. I will make him do it! lol maybe…. ;) Remember you are always more than welcome here. Will miss you and look forward to the time you come back or maybe I will turn up in Europe one day and lob in on you! hehe
P.S. I left the dishes for you Igor! hahaha xxx
