Cascade II - by CapturingTheNight

Woolshed Falls under the Milky Way, Australia. 7th of June 2013

Slightly different view to my last upload. As was the case with it I had to blend in a longer exposure to bring up some detail in the falls as it was so dark there. But unlike "Cascade", which was a panorama, this is just a single shot field of view.

I would love to know which one you like best out of the two.

Masterton, Carterton, Greytown & Featherston

A lightly populated rural region, the Wairarapa is a popular escape for Wellingtonians, being only an hour’s drive away on the other side of the Remutaka Range. This post covers four of the main towns in the region, starting with Masterton, by far the largest town in the Wairarapa, home to ~29,000 people. Henley Lake Park is an attractive place to start, particularly a still day when there are…

Australia - New Horizons - Neue Horizonte

Looking back, it was probably a work colleague who gave me the idea of ​​traveling to Australia - by talking to me about his travel plans. Sometimes enthusiasm is contagious. I was mostly traveling with an international tour group (provider “Contiki”) in Australia: Americans, Dutch, French, British, Japanese, Danes, Germans and of course “Aussies” aged 18 to 35. It can be quite stressful, if you are traveling with wild party people for a total of almost 5 weeks. The party highlight was certainly “The Woolshed” in Cairns, where it is customary to dance exuberantly on the tables when the music starts to play. Contiki is a provider that offers you the opportunity to try many leisure activities. I tried or dared to do river rafting, jet skiing, 4-wheel motorcycling, skydiving, ballooning and sailing. Trying new things generally makes us braver - it shows our subconscious that we can master such things. I didn't find this out until years later, when I did a little research into psychology.

I made two trips to Australia: the first trip was from the north along the west coast (please do not underrate the beauty of Western Australia!!!) - the second trip was from the north along the east coast and later along the south coast. On the first trip I met D. - with whom I later maintained a long-term acquaintance. She was a feminist and I loved to discuss and argue about this topic with her - and by that learned a lot from her about women's view on this world. I could still laugh today: I talked to her in English for almost half an hour until I realized that she was German - and even from my area. She spoke English fluently. It was because of her that I didn't climb Ayers Rock (Uluru) one year later because she told me that the rock is sacred to the Aborigines. The Aborigines deserve respect because they were there before us and we „white people“ simply pushed them away from the land where they had lived for thousands of years. D. later married a New Zealander whom she had met on a Contiki trip through the USA and I lost contact with her after she emigrated to New Zealand. There are so many stories, big and small, that broadened my horizons and my courage on these journeys.

Wenn ich so zurückblicke, war es wohl ein Arbeitskollege, der mich auf die Idee brachte, nach Australien zu reisen - indem er über seine Reisepläne mit mir sprach. Manchmal ist Begeisterung ansteckend. Ich war in Australien größtenteils mit einer internationalen Reisegruppe unterwegs (Anbieter „Contiki“): Amerikaner, Niederländer, Franzosen, Briten, Japaner, Dänen, Deutsche und natürlich „Aussies“ im Alter von 18 bis 35. Das kann ziemlich anstrengend sein, wenn man insgesamt knapp 5 Wochen mit einem wilden Partyvolk unterwegs ist. Das Party-Highlight war sicher „The Woolshed“ in Cairns, wo es Brauch ist, auf den Tischen zu tanzen, wenn die Musik zu spielen beginnt. Contiki ist ein Anbieter, der einem die Möglichkeit bietet, viele Freizeitaktivitäten einmal auszuprobieren. Ich probierte bzw. wagte mich ans River Rafting, Jet Skiing, 4-Wheel-Motorradfahren, Skydiving, Ballonfahren und Segeln. Das Ausprobieren neuer Dinge macht uns generell mutiger - es zeigt unserem Unterbewusstsein nämlich, dass wir solche Dinge meistern können. Das habe ich erst Jahre danach herausgefunden, als ich mich ein wenig mit Psychologie beschäftigt habe.

Ich machte zwei Trips nach Australien: der erste Trip ging von Norden die Westküste entlang (bitte unterschätzt nicht die Schönheit von Western Australia!!!) - der zweite Trip ging vom Norden die Ostküste und später die Südküste entlang. Auf dem ersten Trip lernte ich D. kennen - mit der ich später eine längere Bekanntschaft pflegte. Sie war eine Feministin und ich liebte es, mit ihr über dieses Thema zu diskutieren und zu streiten – und habe dabei viel von ihr über die Sicht von Frauen auf diese Welt gelernt. Ich könnte heute noch lachen: ich unterhielt mich mit ihr fast eine halbe Stunde in Englisch, bis ich feststellte, dass sie Deutsche ist - und sogar aus meiner Gegend. Sie sprach fliessend Englisch. Wegen ihr bin ich auch ein Jahr später nicht auf Ayers Rock (Uluru) geklettert, weil sie mir sagte, dass der Fels für die Aborigines heilig ist. Die Aborigines verdienen Respekt, denn sie waren vor uns da und wir „Weissen“ haben sie einfach von ihrem Land verdrängt, in dem sie bereits seit Jahrtausenden lebten. D. heiratete später einen Neuseeländer, den sie auf einer Contiki-Reise durch die USA kennengelernt hatte und der Kontakt zu ihr verlor sich, nachdem sie dann nach Neuseeland auswanderte. Es gibt so viele kleine und grosse Geschichten, die meinen Horizont und meinen Mut auf diesen Reisen erweiterten.

Itinerary (Reiseroute):

Trip1: Darwin - Litchfield NP - Kununurra/Lake Argyle - El Questro Wilderness Park - Purnululu NP (Bungle Bungle) - Geiki Gorge NP - Broome - Karijini NP - Ningaloo Reef - Shark Bay/Monkey Mia - Kalbarri NP - Nambung NP/Pinnacles Desert - Perth

Trip2: Darwin - Kakadu NP - Katherine NP - Uluru (Ayers Rock) - Kata Tjuta - Kings Canyon - Alice Springs - Cairns - Great Barrier Reef - Magnetic Island - Airlie Beach/ Whitsundays - Hervey Bay/Fraser Island - Brisbane - Surfers Paradise - Byron Bay - Sydney - Blue Mountains - Melbourne - Great Ocean Road/ Twelve Apostles - Adelaide

Muskoka Farm Pre Training

Located on the banks of the Hawkesbury River near Sydney, Muskoka Farm has been one of Australia's most prestigious race horse breaking, pre training and spelling farms since 1969.

The 280 acre property has been carefully designed to meet the physiology and instincts of race horses. It includes a world class horse breaking/pre training and spelling facility, agistment facilities and a luxury four bedroom double storey main home. To know more about Pre Training, visit the Muskoka Farm website or call [phone].

Muskoka Farm is located on a 280-acre property that has been specially designed for race horses. The farm combines science and intuition to ensure that racehorses receive the best possible care.

Developed by prominent businessman Bob Lapointe, the facility is located in Gunderman, New South Wales. It has a beautiful setting and is named after the famous Canadian resort area and Lakes District.

The facility has been responsible for producing many international superstars. It also offers a wide range of services.

Training is important for a racehorse because it helps them learn how to carry weight on the ground, understand barrier procedures and respond to rider aids. It also helps them recover after a race so that they can perform at their best again.

The training facility is equipped with a two-kilometre grass track, a 2.4-kilometre crusher dust track and a high speed treadmill. It also has a lap pool and a private jetty/ponton. It is also a registered AQIS quarantine facility.

Located on the Hawkesbury River in Gunderman, Muskoka Farm is one of the world’s best pre training facilities. With five stable barns, 58 stables and a 2000m track, it’s no wonder it’s a favorite among trainers.

The 280-acre property is carefully designed to meet the unique physiology of race horses. It includes a world class horse breaking/pre training and spelling facility, agistment facilities, a registered AQIS quarantine quarantine facility and a luxury four bedroom double storey main home.

It also boasts a 2.4 kilometre crusher dust track, a hyperbaric oxygen chamber that promotes wound healing and post race recovery, a lap pool and a 24-hour helipad. Other amenities include a private jetty/pontoon, a large outdoor pool and a two-bedroom guest house.

Muskoka Farm pre training is a racehorse break, training and spelling facility located on the Hawkesbury River near Gunderman in New South Wales (NSW). This is an excellent location for people who want to train their horse.

A number of factors have been identified that contribute to the District's compromised local food system. These include; limited arable soils, an agricultural labour shortage, and insufficient agricultural policy at both District and Area Municipality levels.

LFS has identified a range of policy recommendations that will address these challenges and improve the District's local food system. Based on four broad goals; cooperation/coordination, self-sufficiency, expansion and flexibility, these policies are designed to provide the District with a range of tools that will help them to enhance their local food system and increase food security.

Farming is a hard, physical job, but it also offers a sense of deep fulfillment and community. If you are a young adult with a keen desire to learn how to live and work in a sustainable way, come and experience a life-changing experience with us.

Throughout the year, you will be involved in many areas of daily operations. From ATV safety and operation, tractor work, fence tying, woolshed dagging and sheep shearing, you will receive hands-on learning with staff.

Muskoka Farm pre training has been in business for over 50 years and is known for its unique approach to horse care. Their 280 acre property is surrounded by national parks and natural bushland and has been carefully designed to meet race horse physiology and instincts.

It is a world class facility that has been built for breaking, pre-training, spelling, agistment and as a registered AQIS quarantine facility. Their impressive track record of success is a testament to their dedication and commitment to quality horse care. To know more about Pre Training, visit the Muskoka Farm website or call [phone].

Notes from ‘kitchen table conversation’ Kambah 2050, Feb 2023

2pm to 330pm Sat 18 Feb, Tuggeranong Arts Centre in the exhibition ‘Kambah’, a kitchen table conversation organised by Louise Curham, led by Geoff Pryor, Kambah resident and community leader

Present at forum - 19 people

Agenda

Welcome and short introduction Self-introduction – brief Discussion with catalyst questions.

The questions

1. For you, what are the most prized qualities of Kambah?

2. For you, what developments would you really object to if the ACT Government or its planning agencies proposed them?

3. What might be key points to  make in a submission regarding the Draft Tuggeranong district strategy – even if you haven’t read it!

4. Should we try to broaden this conversation across our suburb – perhaps another, bigger conversation?

Responses

Q1: For you, what are the most prized qualities of Kambah? It’s a gem – a comparatively hidden special place within Canberra Open spaces Superb position within Canberra – The suburb is not claustrophobic Scan see the mountains and have the hills – a picture with the snows on them; This natural benefit occurs without paying an enforced premium for this Can walk everywhere – this can be done without cars interfering and one might not meet anyone Knowing the Murrumbidgee river is close and the associated habitat is healthy Don’t have asbestos issues as other suburbs have had A suburb where one can be happy Appropriate sized blocks – good for kids, fosters a sense of community Second generation reflects their good experience and are coming back to live here A suburb with people from all walks of life

The original planning done for Kambah has paid off with for example, buffers on main roads Good bike paths so clashes with vehicular traffic doesn’t occur eg around the former Mt Neighbour school it was possible to take kids to school without crossing main  roads Had a mix of small shopping centres – some of which have been lost without the implications being considered Has a rich local history and heritage from Indigenous peoples, rural past and such as the Woolshed on Springbett street still remaining and being frequently used Was the last suburb planned and developed by the former NCDC with a range of benefits including the lack of profit as a key driver presently seen in all other suburban developments in Canberra these days and the quality of the construction entailed  across the suburb Has enough space and open areas to enable people to live in an independent manner – supporting better individual health Good tree cover in streets Its affordable

Q2 For you, what developments would you really object to if the ACT Government or its planning agencies proposed them? Trying to infill in our open spaces Anything close to the river would be opposed as it would damage the natural environment and the quality of the river itself We noted the original NCDC plan and proposed roads but considerable time has passed and circumstances significantly changed and thus such an early plan may have no bearing on today’s circumstances Don’t want a change to the circumstances of families in the suburb Oppose high rises for the sake of them – doesn’t fit our suburban design Trying to further withdraw local infrastructure such as schools – reflecting not only a short-term view of the world but also that politicians do not listen to their communities Attempts to over ride community control and direction Anything that opposes a sustainable future and this includes the details of all developments Any attempt to change the character of the Kambah community

Question 3 What might be key points to  make in a submission regarding the Draft Tuggeranong district strategy – even if you haven’t read it!

Oppose dual occupancy attempts Oppose anything which leads to a destruction of the environment Oppose apartments of suburban blocks The boundaries of the various zones is to arbitrary which creates uncertainty as to the future holistic suburban environment Don’t want gentrification but a mixed cohort of residents Note the ides of a Transect which needs better explanation and should not be about profit or efficiency as a priority Very concerned that Planning now is driven by the largest landowner namely the ACT government Need to dispute the driver of development as a cashcow! There are other values which should come first such as the need to be climate resilient Development should not be driven by transportation ideals – these are but p[art of the social value system behind developments Strong view not to destroy our local community – which appears to be the case elsewhere in Canberra Place of Murrumbidgee river in future plans – ensure retain the ecological health of the whole system which means plans to develop nearby have little justification, even though was part of the history of pans and such plans have been publicized again in recent years. The value of the local ecology must not be subsumed to greedy developer interests Fear a risk of privatizing views Improve connections with other suburbs Note the legislation in place presently which prevents developing on our suburban hills – there is a need to monitor how governments might be influenced to change this key policy Key points are Much better explanation as to the Draft planning documents Need to highlight community links to the river in ecological and environmental terms Planning design principles need to be explained and for there to be transparency about these Need higher building standards and for transparency in monitoring these as presently what we see is just a hodge podge of development in other suburbs Retain green spaces Retain infrastructure as presently it is death by a 1000 cuts – not looking after means infrastructure decays which provides the excurse to get rid of it We note the claim of 4800 dwelling in fill and suggest this is unjustified We want to keep Kambah affordable Develop an intergenerational principle in operation in practice so transparency around costs to the community Care for the views of all groups and not leave them behind Remove dog paths??

Question 4 Should we try to broaden this conversation across our suburb – perhaps another, bigger conversation? Use a local portal to help locals know about the issues and happenings Put signs on the parkway Support stepping out to get involved Support small local shopping opportunities

Day 8- from Streaky Bay to Elliston- down the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula

We decided to do a bit of the South Head walking trail at Venus Bay; the cliffs were quite stunning but sadly we didn’t- or couldn’t- spot a single seal, sea lion or dolphin.

Venus Bay’s major attraction- in fact one of the major attractions on this part of the peninsula- is the Talia cave system, including the so called Woolshed and the Tub.

It’s a relatively short drive from Venus Bay on unsealed roads- thank goodness! and quite popular.

We didn’t venture inside the Woolshed or climb down into the Tub, leaving these adventures to younger, more intrepid - and possibly stupider-YouTubers, but contented ourselves with taking some photographs and concluding that these sights were justly popular with visitors.

We rounded the day off with the cliff drive at Elliston, further South from Venus Bay. We were very impressed and can highly recommend this drive, even though it is again on a dirt road; the views are sensational, and IMHO rival any scenic drive anywhere; and there are interesting sculptures dotted along the way on the cliff tops.

Senses having reached full well capacity it was time to call it a day.
