    About this ebook

    Taking up photography, as a cathartic exercise, after losing almost everything to the Brisbane floods in 2011 gave Nigel a different perspective on life and his Australian surroundings. 
    There is an old saying that a person's eyes are the "window to their soul." We have found that our photographs are the window to our memories. This is the first book in a series from places we have lived, visited and enjoyed which we hope will appeal not only to followers of our adventures, but also to people who are interested in photography or travel.

      Dedication page

      This book is dedicated to those with an eye for beauty in obscure places.

      "Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,

      And waste its fragrance on the desert air."

      Jane Austin - Emma

      Foreword by Sarah Jane Butfield

      As readers of my travel memoirs will know, Nigel and I emigrated to Australia in January 2008. During our Australian adventure we lived in Alice Springs, Northern Territory; Ipswich and Millmerran, Queensland; and Hobart, Tasmania.

      An important part of the restoration after the floods that inflicted such devastation was to take time to indulge a hobby or interest to regain a sense of normality to our upturned lives. It was during this period living in Hobart that Nigel resurrected his love of photography.

      Tasmania is a beautiful state and as it has seasonal weather, similar to the UK. It was refreshing to experience the lush
