Midnight on the tourist drive. Lights from Perth illuminating the rocks, camera is looking south.

That first shot is just awesome. The architecture in #2 is as well. And the colors in #3 are beautiful, crud and all. But what's up with the parachute just above the horizion on the right edge? The last two are just stunning. Thanks for sharing. :)

Stunning photos Glenn. Welcome back. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Didnt realise until later that there was a lot of crud on the sensor.

You can remove that with a little work in a graphics editor.

Wonderful Photo's Glenn!.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

....and there's me thinking that Western Australia is just a desolate, sand-covered place!

(Maybe that's further inland?).

Sure it may be desolate and sand covered, but just look around, and you will always find something truly beautiful in western australia.

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
