"I was simply restless, quite likely because of a dissatisfaction with the recent trajectory of my life, and if there is a better, more compelling reason for dropping everything and moving to the end of the world, I don't know what is."

Wow, beauty in these shots.
We were at Belvoir castle on tues,pop over to my blog and see.
What fun! I sure would have liked to be with you on this trip. Great photos.
A really fantastic series of images. The power of the earths forces are stunning, and these photos really show the evidence.
Amazing series of photos! Very well done!
An excellent report which makes us in travel for some days
It must take a scary amount of water to do that to rock, Jules.
Any chance of you hiking back up there in the rainy season and photographing the waterfall?
What an interesting place to explore Jules.. The power of the water is very evident there
I made it this morning to look at your post and then I am off for a lung test.
I hope to be finished with all tests and back to normal by the 12th or soon thereafter.
Your photograph is really nice, as usual.
Hi All
Dive - i do think that a helicopter would be the only way in the wet!!! Swimming or driving would be well and truly out of the question - althogh quite exciting.....and fatal!!!!
Abe - you must be all test-out!!! Hope all is well.
So you'll not be paddling down the rapids in your outrigger, then?
Oh, well.
Dive - the outrigger idea is a good
one if you wanted to ensure a spot in the 2008 Darwin awards!!!
I'd love a drive up a dried-up river bed like this, so long as it didn't suddenly start raining!
'struth, J: this blog gets nastier and nastier by the day! How do you keep it up? ;-)
BTW...foxes? They are not wild. These are very elegant and "reefained" urbanites who go with impunity. Some people love them, others 8%@**"! And at night, screaming and mateing in your garden they are the bl***y end mate!!!!! The fox knows where he is best off: in town, not in the countryside.
Amazing, once again. Can we have a mouth-watering beach at some point too? I adore where you live; it's so interesting.
I can imagine how dangerous this place would be in full flood, but how amazing it would be to see it.
And the Japanese tunnel. There must be a lot of history to be unearthed in there.
Must be time to show Lynn some beach shots; the sun is out in Gloucestershire. You know what the Brits do at the first rays of sun in Springtime !!!
A really fantastic series of images
and an interesting place to explore.
Thank you, Jules, for visiting and for your very kind comments! I am glad I got to come back and look at these photos again today! I really enjoyed them!
these are something else! erosion revealing an old tunnel. Love the looks of the cliffs.
Interesting stuff, Jules :-)
Hi fellow bloggers - thanks for your comments
M B - I know what they do - they take their clothes off and go lie in the park!!!
Lyn - I have a pile of beach shots - stay tuned I will find a couple of good ones that will make your mouth water - will post them on Sunday!!!
Fascinating. You have captured the textures so well. Very interesting about the Japanese tunnel.
