Bathurst


At the heart of this gold mining region is the city of Bathurst, a bustling business centre today that has much of its rich history reflected in elegant old buildings thst appear throughout the city.

It is a lovely city, see more of Bathurst over at 100 towns.

  1. It's my wedding anniversary today. On our honeymoon we stayed in Bathurst in a B&B just like this. We never planned to stay in Bathurst but a terrible experience at Jenolan Caves Guest House saw us flee. We were always glad we did it as Bathurst is a beautiful city.

    1. The Caves guest house is romantic but its fortunes rise and fade ... I've stayed there twice, once on our honeymoon and another on a wedding anniversary both were pleasant experiences but I know it has been very dodgy in between.

  2. I have not been to either locality for yonks. But, as I noted earlier, I have Bathurst in my bucket ...

    This photograph could have been taken in just so many streets of Paddington.

Windy August

Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale.  Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.

The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull!  But there is something of interest in the image.  These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today.  On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
