Unfortunately not my seaplane, but what better way to get to the beach for a relaxing hour or two.

Seagulls patrol the concrete surface of the 1922 shipwreck SS Kwinana. In the background is the busy Kwinana Port.

Ships load their cargoes in the clear blue waters of Kwinana Port. In the foreground is Wells Park, a popular spot for picnics and fishing.

As the sun sets, a boat is winched to the back of the owner's car, and all is well...

A fisherman's marker languishes on the beach after some strong winds. Rockingham, Western Australia. Ricoh Caplio GX compact camera, 2007

Two little penguins patiently wait for their next fishy meal.

An abstract of sails from a sailing boat and the expansive West Australian sky.

Warm colours of a terracotta water feature. I also was interested in how the water would be captured at the camera's fastest shutter speed of 1/8000th of a second.

A single light illuminates the play equipment during the night. There is not a sound to be heard during these hours, except the waves of the Indian Ocean crashing in the background. 30 second exposure.

This image is a number of years old. It shows my niece and nephew, Georgina and William, fishing at dusk. The original file has long been lost (hard drive failure), so I rephotographed a print instead.

The family in this photo are standing on the wreck of the SS Kwinana , which in 1922 ran aground on a beach in Western Australia, south of Perth. The area then became known as Kwinana. Since 1922 the population has grown to over 32,000 inhabitants, and Kwinana officially became a city In 2012. Rockingham, which borders Kwinana, was also named after a ship wreck. In 1830 the ship Rockingham was abandoned after being blown ashore. Today, Rockingham has grown to become a city too. This picture was made with a 24mm wide-angle lens in order to include a lot of sky. Split-toning has been added in Photoshop to add a bit of tone in both the highlights and shadows (yellow in the highlights and purple in the shadows).

"Measure Twice Cut Once" by artists Mark Datodi and Steve Tepper. This 2014 art piece is in front of the new Challenger Institute of Technology, Rockingham, WA.

I very much like the design for this street sign, Kent Street Deli. The sign uses a fork for the stem of the letter 'K'; a knife for the letter 'L' and a swash 'D'. Some years ago I worked as sign designer; even today I tend to notice all sorts of street signs. Kent Street Deli, Kent Street, Rockingham, Western Australia

It is mid-June—but this looks suspiciously like a Christmas themed attraction designed to bring in the shoppers. There was more than a few people tut-tutting when they saw this. Rockingham Shopping Centre, Western Australia.
