Images from
Mt Rigi….
…in Switzerland
Mt Rigi overlooks
Lake Lucerne…
…and is so steep…
…that the cow have shorter front legs.

Walks.
Walkers alongside Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree.
Lake Wendouree was the site of all rowing events
during the 1956 Melbourne Olympics.
The walk from Eastern Beach car park.
At the top of the hill, you are only a five minute walk
from Geelong’s Central Business District.
The reverse view down to the Promenade.
Nearing the top of Lucerne’s
Mt Rigi.
The walk in context.
Walking in Schoenbrunn Palace gardens
We didn’t have the time or energy
to walk all to the back of the garden.

Some random ‘play’ photos.
Our first day in South Africa, 2013.
No, that is not yours truly among the trees.
Rather one of the Australian organisers.
Closer to home.
Our new timid cat (Smudge) terrorizing Candi.
Candi at play.
Not sure who gets most enjoyment,
Candi or her human thrower.
People at play on and around
Lake Lucerne.

Lens-Artist-PC-57-Taking-a-Break
~~~~~
In Switzerland we found many people…
..enjoying a break on Lake Lucerne,
in temperatures which would have had
most of us rugged up.
It was not until I cropped this photo
that I noticed the young male in the middle
and how much he appears to be enjoying his break
with four bikini clad young ladies.
I love to take a break and travel to somewhere
I have not been for a while and
photograph what I find.
Gibson Steps was a place I had not visited
for many years until two years ago.
Photography has and will always be
a hobby of mine.
About two years ago I drove back to Warrnambool,
on Victoria’s South West Coast,
where there is a whale nursery at Logan’s Beach.

Some of the charm…
…of Switzerland...
…and Lucerne…
Just beautiful.

Word of the Day Challenge: Charming
FOWChallenge-Skimp
~~~~~
skimp
expend or use less time, money, or material on something
than is necessary in an attempt to economize.
“don’t skimp on insurance when you book your holidays”
a fashionably short or revealing garment.
“she wore a yellow skimp”
Not many years ago this hemline…
…would have shocked everyone.
Now it is rather conservative.
The bikini clad sun lovers are borderline skimpy
by today’s standards.
As I don’t shoot many people in skimpy attire,
I had too search photos like this to find…
to find any skimpy or not so skimpy clad
beach goers at Sydney’s Manly Beach.
