McVeigh’s Water Wheel
This is McVeigh’s Water Wheel, for me the main photographic attraction at the Upper Yarra Reservoir Park, Victoria, Australia.
Unfortunately it’s fenced off, so you need to be a bit cheeky to get good shots and jump the fence. The extra effort is worthwhile to get a different perspective on the wheel.
These water wheel shots are available for purchase at –

The optical jewels at Sorrento.
My recent visit to the ocean beach at Portsea sparked a craving for more of the same photographic material.
This time I visited the ocean beach further along the coastline at Sorrento. The first visit to the beach was a spur of the moment decision. When I arrived there the sun was hovering just above the horizon, I had no time to explore the beach and it was a high tide. I took a few shots of the sun fading into the horizon and a few long exposure shots of waves swirling around the rocks.
Here’s a couple of the high tide shots –
The next visit to Sorrento beach was a bit better planned and I actually remembered to check the tide charts before leaving. On arrival the rock pools were at their low tide best, the sun was high enough in the sky to give me time to explore some of the rocky features yet low enough to give the area a nice warm glow.
Here’s some of the shots from the low tide visit –
