Walking at the Noosa Headland National Park

While we were down in Noosa we did a few walks on the Noosa Headland National Park. At the start of the track they had lots of information signs with clever designs. There were also lots of little freshwater streams running beside and over the paths, probably as a result of the flood-inducing rain that Noosa had received before we arrived. There were great views all along the track, so I took quite a lot of those type of shots.

One of the beaches that we discovered on the walk had thousands of medium-sized smooth rocks all over it – you can see a Contrasting Sharply photo of them as well as the ones below. An amazing thing about these rocks is that they were really bouncy. I threw one of them as hard as I could at the other ones and it must have bounced about 8 times!

Bonfire Night

Yesterday afternoon we decided to light up a big pile of wood and branches. It had been a hot, still day, so having a bonfire was fairly safe. The afternoon was also beginning to turn cold and moisture was starting to settle on the ground, so any flying embers wouldn’t have much of a chance.

Below are some photos of the fire in various stages. Some of the photos look as if they were taken at night when they were actually taken late afternoon. This is a result of the cameras exposure settings. My favourite photo is either the last one which has the moon in it or the one where the fire looks like it has suddenly flashed down from the sky.
