Hovea Creek hurtles across smooth polished rocks that just two months ago were stagnant pools.

John Forrest National Park

Apologies for the unscheduled break in play; I spent the lion’s roar of my weekend rebuilding my PC, which perhaps dragged out a little longer than I realised it would.  But, I’m back with a fresh install and a new batch of photos taken today, chasing waterfalls that are feverishly cascading down the Darling Scarp, flushed with winter rains.  More of those, in the coming days!

A portion of South Perth as spied from regular Perth.

There is definitely something in the third warning image which harks back to the good old Roadrunner cartoons…

Jingemia Cave – Watheroo National Park

A far from uncommon sight on the Perth skyline in recent years is that of crane towers.  Here though, one working on a building on the foreshore is draped on an evening sky against the bottle like glass of the Perth Bell Tower.

While they are in completely different parts of the city, I couldn’t help being reminded of this photo upon seeing the results of the one presented today.

Coloured quartz outcrops adorn the immediate country around Jingemia Cave in the massive Watheroo National Park.

Water gauges on the edge of Lake Monger reflect the recent rains.
