The Three Sisters (New Zealand) on Flickr.The Three Sisters and Elephant Rock at Tongaporutu, Taranaki, New Zealand. To be current (2013) some jokingly refer to this as the 2 1/2 sisters because the sea has eroded away one of sisters.

Lion Rock at Piha on Flickr.First night of 2013 spent at Piha Beach, on the rugged west coast of Auckland. Lion Rock is the big one in the distance, from this angle you can see how it resembles a resting lion.

North Curl Curl Tidal Pool on Flickr. There are a number of ocean pools around Sydney, although I am strangely drawn to this one. Maybe it’s the location, maybe it’s the funny name…

Photography tip of the day: When setting out to take pictures of waterfalls, wear rugged shoes. Don’t wear slippers/thongs — you might slip and fall…as I did when leaving this place. Empress Falls near Wentworth Falls, up in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia.

Wollongong on Flickr. Haven’t slept in 36 hours…because I drove to Wollongong yesterday at 4am! Here’s the coastal town of Wollongong, which is not a terribly interesting place to visit it has to be said. Seen with its twin lighthouses and a swimming pool, sky darkened using a circular polariser.

Parliament House on Flickr. So I took the day off and drove to Canberra and back (~3 hours each way) yesterday because I wanted pictures of Parliament House at dusk. The things I do to get some photos…
