Creating & Capturing Life's Precious Moments
We weren’t rushed to leave, but eventually did, stopping for coffee and a quick breakfast bite. We explored the area, crisscrossing the region and hunting down old bridges, ruins and points of interest. Nurioopta > Copeville We made the long and dusty drive out to the Copeville silos, a long way from anywhere really. Hot…

After a fantastic morning and early afternoon in Burra, it was once again time to hit the road. We could have easily spent another day here, but we were running short on time, and with so much more we wanted to see. Burra > Farrell Flat “Farrell Flat is a small town of approximately 300…

Our original plan for this trip did not include going to Burra, nor Worlds End, or even anywhere else we ended up this day. But advice from fellow travellers was NOT to miss Burra. So glad we listened. We never hit Worlds End as we missed the turn-off. We did plan on going back, but…

Our start wasn’t quite so early on our second day. It was bright and sunny and we took our time with breakfast and getting ready to go. Our first stop was the silo art again, this time in the sun instead of the shade, the same with the bridge from Paringa to Renmark. We walked…

Day Four was my working day. I had booked the Foundry Gallery, which is located in the historic part of Echuca. I started with a Camera Basics class, which had a fabulous turn-out. A very casual few hours discussing the camera basics, exposure triangle, metering and camera modes. Depth of field, genres, shooting styles, lenses…

Hitting the road again we found some wonderful quickie stops such as the Bra Fence at Mathoura, some emus in a sheep paddock, the old rail bridge at Tocumwal and more. Deniliquin We headed into New South Wales (NSW), joking we forgot to bring our passports! Thankfully all the permits and passes going from state…

Our last trip to Echuca in 2019 was wet, cold and miserable, we were again trying to avoid the storms that lashed NE Victoria. This time the weather was a little nicer, although still on the chilly side. Although the rains held off, the wind gusted from time to time. Still, in the car, the…

Another month, another road trip. I do however fear it’s our last for at least a little while. This time we were heading to historic Echuca Moama. About a 3.5-hour drive from Melbourne. Echuca sits on the Murray River, the gateway to N.S.W. We had hoped being further north, the weather might be a touch…
