Does anyone still keep a 'shoot list' of things to capture?

Fair enough. For a trip like this where you're together 24/7, you HAVE to be into the same things or you'll kill each other!!- 27 replies

I don't have the answer to that Betty. The reef was very beautiful, the whole palette of blue and turquoise hues.

My RV is actually easy to retreat to if I choose to. It's cozy, spacious enough and I have everything I need: my laptop, cameras, big fridge/freezer, bar, shower/toilets, plenty of books, games we play at Happy Hour. I see it as having a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, sitting room and the front cab. With its rigid walls, I can sit inside and not hear a sound from the outside. It's actually very cozy when it rains, like a cocoon. When we wake up in the morning, there is this overwelming feeling of freedom. No deadline, no destination written in stone. What do we feel like doing today?- 27 replies

Not me! I'm a born nomad! Every day something new. Every day new people. New adventures. New places. New stories. There's hardly a day when we don't feel blessed. But I realise it's not for everyone.- 27 replies

I used to have one based on AoA but no more. As I'm full time on the road, I research beforehand the highlights of the next town, see how it's covered on Alamy, and I take it from there. Sometimes the weather is c**p and off goes my list.- 27 replies

The trip to Lady Musgrave Island on the Great Barrier Reef yesterday was out of this world. I am still under the spell. First we went snorkelling over the reef, then did a glass bottom boat ride where we saw turtles, then a walk on the island where a colony of white-capped noddies are currently nesting. Wow! Another jewel in the crown of Australia. Shame I can't upload my GoPro pictures to Alamy, I like them. https://www.facebook.com/gen.froggie/posts/10222394824253077 For those into marine biology, our guide informed us of an interesting fact...

Thank you Sally. That spot is so photogenic, it's hard to get it wrong. I noticed that I mostly license pictures of beaches in Australia. I have another 4 tonight!! -

Found it!! We're booked for a day trip tomorrow to an inland on the Outer reef of the Great Barrier Reef. Great I thought, I'll use my new toy, a half-in half-out dome for my GoPro while snorkelling. Now where is it?? There are only a few cupboards (and 3 photo bags) in my motorhome. I go through everything twice. Nothing. I dismantle my bed for the third time, it can only be there, I go through all the fishing gear [why doesn't he sell this stuff, he never even caught a sardine...] and at last, tucked in a corner right at the back near the tools, here it is! Shots won't be for Alamy of course -

I know, I refrain from posting in the good news thread because I feel for you guys. Hopefully with vaccinations under way, the end of restrictions is in sight? Or most of them at least. It will be a while for international travel to resume in Oz. The ban had interesting consequences: as Australians can't holiday abroad (Bali, etc), there has been huge demand for motorhomes and caravans. There isn't enough RVs available.

Silhouette of a female kangaroo with a joey in her pouch at sunrise. Being a side on image, I had to clone a dodgy shape sticking out of the pouch to avoid double-takes....

In Australia, Queensland does not have daylight savings. Other States do. It always starts the first Sunday in October. -

You have 6 images live already, so there's no problems uploading single pix if you want to. Tip: you have two typos in your tags for image EC3YCN9. I haven't looked at the others.
