BLUEBOTTLE JELLYFISH

Summer months and the noer easters up the coast bring these jewel's. Would never have guessed something that can bring so much pain could be so colorful and beautiful.

CAMP WOOLY

One hell of a campsite.Camp wooly it was named,after i had given up and got the shits with finding camp Senior Wooly Weir took the reigns and came accross this gem. We snoozed,we paddled,we fished,we chilled and i marked this one on the map to return again soon.

FAR NTH QLD

Ahhhh the tropical north east coast.If i was'nt a surfer i would reside there in a heartbeat.

ECLIPSE NOV 2012

Eclipse 2012 North Queensland.I have seen some beautiful sights in our sky,an Aurora Australis at sandy point at 4am that lasted 45 minutes,also a meteor shower that lasted three consecutive nights in central Australia with what looked like constant shooting stars by the dozen. But this Total Solar Eclipse at 8:35am would have to take the cake for the most amazing things i have seen with the naked eye.To top it off the backdrop was the daintree rainforest as Brett Weir and myself where perched on top of a mountain away from civilisation enjoying the view. It lasted around three hours with totality (when the moon blocks the sun) lasting a long two minutes.The light during totality was something to remember,a bluey purple tinge covered the landscape to our backs and the birds stopped chirping,thinking it was bedtime.During totality you could remove your solar gasses and glimpse at this natural phenomenon. I would definitely travel and recommend a trip to some other part of the world to witness a Total Solar Eclipse. I believe the next one is visible in Iceland in a few years with the next one in Australia in the Sydney region in 16 years.After that,i hear there will not be another in Oz for 300+ years.
