Smoke from early bushfires up on the NSW northern tablelands, drifting towards the coast over the mountain called Old Man Sleeping after its Gumbaynggirr origin story. Photo on the 3rd of this month at sunset, the mountain sits behind Bellingen #sunset #landscapephotography #photography

The setting sun's "green flash"(or at least its green edge). Heavily cropped but otherwise unedited. Taken from Fiji tonight, I've never seen it before 😊 #greenflash #sunset #settingsun #photography

Was nice being there. I was the only one at the lookout, very peaceful

Direct lightning strike on Crooked Top Mountain behind Bowraville (locals call it titty mountain). The rural fire service was called out for a grass fire this storm started #lightning #stormseason #bowraville #nsw #landscapephotography #naturephotography

The visually beautiful Red Rock near Coffs Harbour on the NSW mid north coast. Also known as blood rock for a police massacre of Gumbaynggirr people in 1841, led by Major Henry Robert Oakes. Oakes still has various local places named after him #redrock #coffscoast #australianhistory #photography

A soft sunset haze last week, with Crooked Top Mountain in the distance. All the locals call it Titty Mountain, the term used now in Gumbaynggirr (the local indigenous language) is a play on that too I think #tittymountain #sunset #landscape #landscapephotography #photography

Last night's full supermoon rising behind South Solitary Island, photo from a headland in Coffs Harbour on the NSW mid north coast. There was bushfire smoke from further south I think, hence some of the red #coffsharbour #coffscoast #fullmoon #islands #landscapephotography #photography

It faded around here as the night wore on, a mate of mine actually saw naked eye colour just as it got dark but I didn't :(

Jacaranda season at Grafton in the NSW northern rivers region, photo from early this morning. The town has a festival for it each year, so many beautiful purple streetscapes #jacarandas #lighttrails #longexposure #grafton #clarencevalley #photography
