The Californian Redwoods

I unfortunately had not really picked up a camera and take photos for much of 2025, despite me wanting to escape from the daily grind and do what I really enjoy. Thankfully I did find the time to do just that in early August.

I've always wanted to photograph the Californian Redwoods in East Warburton ever since I saw an Instagram post about it after the COVID lockdowns. I'm a sucker for symmetry in nature, having been to the Valley of Liquid Amber some years back with my wife and kids to take photos of the kidlets throwing golden autumn leaves in the air. And so I made a plan to drive early one Sunday August morning, to try and catch the sunrise and golden light beamng through the colossal redwood trees.

From the Archives: The old Oxley Flour Mill

Oxley, VIC

It was a trip to the Milawa wine region just south of Wangaratta in Victoria, when I first laid my eyes on the ever-imposing old Oxley Flour Mill. A large sandy-red brick building protruding proudly above a very flat flood plain, the building stuck out of the surrounding trees, as if to stare at you as you drive by, making sure that no crazy shenanigans are afoot with the upcoming weekend of indulgence of wine and cheese.

Subsequent visits to Milawa and the King River Valley region only made me want to take a photo of this magnificent and sturdy, yet unused and dilapitated brick building. So back in May 2023, as we visited Milawa again, I was determined to take a photo of this landmark.
