Great Places To Visit - Archibald Art Exhibition in Ballarat 2016.

Spent a lovely day wandering around beautiful Ballarat.  The Archibald Art Exhibition was held in the Ballarat Art Gallery again this year....it's last one in Ballarat, Vic. A small group of friends and I travelled by train from Melbourne to view the exhibition and spend a day out of the city. The train trip from Melb to Ballarat was relaxing. We passed the time with chit chat and scenery watching or snoozing. Walked from the train station up to the exhibition, which was a short easy walk, browsed around the gallery, then selected a spot for lunch, enjoyed a nice glass of wine with lunch, then a gentle stroll back to the train station to catch the 2.20pm train back to Melb.  Back in time to catch the local train home before peak hour rush. A tired but happy bunch of Archibald wanders! Recommend a train trip to Ballarat even without the Archibald Art Exhibition.

Easter Break at Camperdown, vic.

Stayed in Camperdown with the Ivanhoe Photo Club this Easter. All 18 of us had a great time. Took lots of photos. Good food, wine etc was enjoyed by all. We enjoyed dinner at the Hampden Hotel which was excellent on a couple of nights and our accommodation at the Cascade Motel was very comfortable and the staff very friendly. All together a nice relaxing break away.  We toured around the local area and down to the coast which was only a 45min drive away. Then back to Melbourne...and back to work. Ooh well, there's always next Easter to look forward to! Another venue and another adventure!  

A Beautiful Little Cherub named Sana

During the Christmas break I had the delightful opportunity to photograph a little angel named Sana. She is such a little live wire. A gorgeous little girl full of wriggles and smiles. Mum and dad were very pleased with the end results, which will soon be adorning the walls of their new home. It's a tough job being a photographer, but someone's got to do it, I'm glad it's me. Thanks Sana for filling my day with joy.
