Here are some more pictures from our recent trip to New Zealand. These were all taken at Musick Point, a small peninsula in East Auckland named after American aviator Ed Musick. It was such a beautiful

Here are a couple of pictures from our recent trip to Auckland. This is "Little Bucks" - the smaller part of Bucklands Beach. There is a boardwalk that runs around the cliff to a marina in the

If you are ever in Hawthorn and hungry, check out Veggie on Board. They are on Burwood Rd next to Swinburne University and have a wide range of vegetarian (many vegan) Taiwanese dishes. They do a lot of

While we were in Auckland we visited the Auckland Art Gallery. They had a participatory installation called The Obliteration Room ( It was a white room and when you entered you were given a sheet of coloured

This is my mother's dog "Boofa". He is an excitable little guy and when he gets excited he jumps and runs in circles (always clockwise, no left turns like Zoolander). He was a rescue dog who

Here are a couple more rose closeups. I can't quite remember where I took these but I think it might have been at the Parnell Rose Gardens in Auckland.

I took this on a little holiday we had in Sorrento. I think it was the beach just by the Portsea Quarantine Station. I couldn't believe there was no one there (don't worry, it's not a quarantine station

At the end of last year we went to see the Cirque du Soleil performance Toruk, the First Flight which was based on the film Avatar. It was different from previous Cirque du Soleil performances we had seen.

Today I thought I would combine my macrophotography entry (close up rain on the car window) with some information (that the photo reminded me of). Mixed up weather patterns as a result of climate change

Our boy Connor was too lazy to hold his head up so he found the perfect chin rest. Both of our cats do cute things. Our other cat Diamond has an understanding of how to be cute so will do cute things when

I'm continuing to get excited for our trip to NZ, so I have been looking back at old photos. These were taken just on sunset at Howick Beach in Auckland. It was so peaceful, we were the only ones there.

I like to joke that @datascience is a "holistic gardener" (after enjoying two seasons of the excellent tv show Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency). The inputs and outputs of his gardening

This is the Auckland CBD taken from across the harbour. We have regular trips to Auckland as @datascience is from there. It is a beautiful city so I always look forward to it.

When it is hot we keep our cats shut inside (which they hate). With a cooler couple of days we have been able to let them outside to play. Diamond being cheeky Connor relaxing

We didn't have the nice camera with us when we went for a walk but managed to get a nice shot of Ringwood Lake on my phone.

You may have guessed from my user name that I love flowers. I'm not 100% sure of what type of flower this is but it looks like some type of azalea. I like how the camera was able to capture so much detail

When I was in Auckland with @datascience he took me to a pub called the Northern Steamship that had attached lamps to the ceiling for lighting. It was hard to photograph but fascinating to look at. I don't

This is a photo from our road trip down Great Ocean Road. It was taken on the beach in a town called Lorne which is about 140km south-east of Melbourne. I thought the texture of the rocks was really beautiful.
