Nice work Trevor. So much going on there and you’ve revealed some great detail. I can feel a mosaic project calling…

Nice capture Trev of this little gem in SMC
Rarely imaged too
Well done !
Just got back to Sydney after 17 days travelling through the South West Cape region of WA. Only 1 half clear night and cloudy most of the time but a beautiful part of Oz I must say. The wines pretty good too.
You obviously don’t hail from that part of WA as you’ve posted images fairly consistently over the past year or so.
