Photos of 2010 Tour of the Murray

Caught up with competitors in the annual Tour of the Murray bike race. These riders are amazingly tough and after days of hard bike racing, I’m sure they didn’t need the strong winds and driving rain showers that they’ve encountered here in Sunraysia.

City traffic does this to you….

Bianca was amused by this character, while we were commuting between locations in Melbourne last week, she spotted a fellow traveler.  Not all of our models are happy about having their photos taken, and this guy was sure was one of those. Even when we pulled up beside them we still got an earful. I’m [...]

Fire juggling on Lake Eyre.

Promised that I’d post another shot of Andrew Clegg. Last time it was a pretty straight portrait of  Andrew with a mug of tea at sunset. This time we’ve got Andrew on the dry edge of Lake Eyre, juggling fire no less. Not exactly the shot we went out to do but when mother nature [...]

Watson’s shore team report that see will encounter waves in the vicinity of 12 metres high over the next few hours, combined with strong, really strong winds. So close to home and so much danger ahead. Read the story here on Jessica Watson’s web site. Meanwhile American teenager, Abby Sunderland, also attempting to sail around [...]

Ford Gt Muscle Cars in Mildura.

Mildura and surrounds were alive to the throb of big brutish, vintage and very classic Ford Falcon Gt’s over the Anzac weekend. Just shy of one hundred of the big beauties came out take part in the Mildura GT Rally or should I say “run”. We manage to catch up with some of the cars [...]
