Many towns, both small and large,
have a memorial to commemorate
fallen service personnel.
Warrnambool, on Victoria’s
South West Coast,
is no exception.

In June this year, I made the 200-kilometre drive
to Warrnambool to visit my 89-year-old Auntie…
…who was briefly being cared for
at the Warrnambool Base Hospital.
While there I discovered this courtyard
and these artworks.

I decided to stick to Aussie favourites for his week’s challenge.
Griffin Gully Pier with the sky colours reflected in the water.
Again reflections and colours.
The pier, above, is just to the left.
The sun is just a picture as it endeavours to remain in bed.
Reminds me of our boys when they were teens and
I wanted half an hour’s assistance on a Saturday morning.
It always took an hour to get them out.

The first time I ever tried smoothing the water.
The 12 Apostles on a 44 Degree Celsius day
I love the colours of the sand, foam and aqua water.
It is obviously being enjoyed by this beach goer.

This week I decided to post my whale nursery images
captured at Warrnambool’s
Southern Right Whale Nursery
at Logans Beach.
It was only 2-3 years ago that I first visited
Warrnambool’s Logans Beach.
A 200 kilometres (one way) drive.
At first, I was a little sceptical that whales would be on display.
Particularly after the drone pilot told me
they were nearly a kilometre out to sea.
Soon after a cow and calf were sighted…
around half a kilometre away…
…heading towards the viewing platform.

I held my breath in the hope that they…
…would be within a decent range.
While I was using a 50-500 mm Sigma Zoom lens…
…with some cropping…
…I was more than pleased with the results
from my first whale watching images
from Warrnambool.
This image was taken using the 50mm end of my zoom
simply to show how close to the sand the whales came.
I am sure better images were available to
those with only a 50 mm lens.
