We had a wonderful opportunity to follow a tv crew and 4x4 magazine while shooting a story in the red centre. Of course I want to tell you all about it and how fabulous they all were, but we're rushing like mad to get ready for our next trip which is 12 days and includes several of the couples from the previous trip. More photos to follow in about two weeks and hopefully I can keep all this great stuff in my head!

JM's dad is visiting us and about to embark on his first outback excursion. Wish us well!

Still down with flu, working a bit. Must sleep now.

More photos, more photos -- click the photo above to be taken to my flickr page. This one is a tiny leech attached to a tour-mate's toe. We spent the last four days on a tour from Sydney to Melbourne. Tomorrow we head to Hobart for a few weeks (or days) in Tasi. All this travel can tire a girl out -- I need a vacation.

We're back from our New Year's jaunt up to Kooljaman where we spent the majority of this sunset alone. We're on our way to Darwin today if this rain doesn't keep us grounded. As usual, more photos are posted at flickr.

We survived Christmas in the outback! Click on the photo to see more at flickr.

I'm ever so slowly updating my flickr account with past projects and random shots I like. Well, that's the plan anyway. So check back in a year or two and maybe it'll be done.

I'll be posting lots of photos for a while. Lots of bad photos: poor lighting, ham-fisted composition, noisy with pixels. I'm experimenting with the adorable camera Elli sent me with just one photo on it, months ago, and with which I've been playing ever since. Thanks, Elli! I love it! I'm hopeless with it!

I have a fat backlog of recipes to post with thoroughly unappetizing photos. Gird your bellies, my pretties.

In this series I will photograph objects on or around my desk, tiny enough to fit under a loop. Photo No. 1: a bonbon.

I am alone and I am bored.

I am digitalizing my life for reasons to be explained later. I've scanned in over six hundred photos this weekend of family and friends which has made me a bit weepy and in love with life as I know it.

I leave you with image No. 369. Back in '97 I had the idea to write the word "fear" in the sand and let the ocean wash it all away in some great metaphorical moment. I wanted to live my life fully, completely, boldly; or maybe I had seen "Strictly Ballroom" too many times. It didn't help much, but I got a good polaroid shot from it.

A few weeks ago I cleaned out the small ponds in our garden that hadn't been touched since last fall. They were filled with slimy whatnot and every now and then I imagined an arm springing from the goo to pull me down into an abyss of horrors. Then I remembered all the comic book characters that realized super powers because of some supernatural faux pas and started to wonder what my newfound strength would be. The only symptom that's manifested in the past two weeks is the ability to make myself feel really, really tired.
