Hello,

We recently had a glorious week’s camping at O’Reilly’s located in the Lamington National Park just behind the Gold Coast. On the first day, we were entertained by a 60cm red bellied black snake who seemed quite inquisitive. The local warden said that they are usually quite docile, unless stood on!

After a day’s long walk, we returned to find a dragonfly perched on a towel we draped on one of the guy ropes. I fitted the Canon EF-S 60mm F2.8 macro lens and grabbed a couple of quick shots, but the guys seemed unperturbed so I set up the tripod and slowly inched closer.

It was truly a wonderfully relaxing week, immersed in the beauty of the rain forest and its creatures.

Cheers

Dennis
