This picture was taken with the Fuji X10 (at 70mm, ISO500). Damn, I fell again to GAS as I could no resist it today when I saw it again in Melbourne. I guess my article on how to erradicate GAS will have to be delayed … my credibility just took a hit.
More to come about the X10 in the coming days. I’ll shoot some street photography with it in Melbourne.

The train driver is about to start the old steam locomotive. Once again, the old lady is going to rock the passengers piled in the old wooden carriages.

The Great Ocean Road is a war memorial. It runs for 250km and was built by veterans returning from WWI. The scenery is absolutely stunning and you’ll find now and then a little beach stuck between two high cliffs. At first it looks deserted, but suddenly a surfer comes out of nowhere. Then lovers, some happier than others. (click on pictures for high res)

Here they stand proudly a few meters away from the Coast. They were split from mainland thousands years ago, and their fate is to be assaulted relentlessly by the waves of the Southern sea. Until they crumble. They are the 12 Apostles and definitely one of Australia’s best landmark. (click on pictures for high res)
