Twelve Apostles!

The Twelve Apostles is a collection of eight miocene limestone rock stacks jutting from the water in Port Campbell National Park  on the Great Ocean Road.


We rented a helicopter to get a good view. It really payed off, could get good shots of the surrounding areas and the 12 Apostles.

Waited for the sunset to get this shot. Used a big chunk of rock as a tripod and played with the shutter speed to get this milky ocean effect. Meantime, was freezing my butt off in the cold wind.

Used the same technique for this shot as well, but had to really crank up the shutter speed as the sun had already set when I took this.

Went to Boxing Day Test match ( IND vd AUS) in MCG. India lost after a good fight....but still was great fun!

The Stadium itself is just humongous. It can hold a whopping 1,00,018 people.







Shot these two pics near Brisbane @ Surfers Paradise. Great, little, fun packed town.
