It’s been a while since you’ve heard from me; I’ve had visitors and trips away and life was busy for a time. I met my parents in Adelaide, who were there to catch up with their grandchildren. We spent a few days at Deep Creek Conservation Park on the Fleurieu Peninsula which lies a couple […]
Day 16 of Square in September and this shot was taken earlier this year at Coriole vineyard, McLaren Vale, South Australia. The cellardoor has a beautiful cottage garden seen here with the Vale in the background.

South Australia is my adoptive homeland and we spent the first 11 years of our Australian adventure there before moving to Brisbane. It was easy to find places of serenity in such a beautiful peaceful place. Be it in the vineyards of the Adelaide Hills or by the sea at Brighton these photos were, and […]
