The view to the South from North Beach as the weak afternoon sunlight bathes the limestone retaining wall.

The weathered limestone coast of WA lends itself to some rather dramatic landscapes.  Where half hearted attempts haven’t been made to contain it, be by retaining wall or concrete plug, the natural features are simply impressive.  Some of the holes pictured went through the bench to the beach underneath; a good two metres down.

Perth is a very isolated city.  In fact, that is probably an understatement.  Short of Honolulu, Perth is probably the most isolated major city on the planet.  It’s closer to many major cities in Indonesia than it is the main cities on the Eastern Seaboard of Australia.  With that in mind, it’s exceedingly rare to see an aircraft’s vapour trail in the sky, as almost anything that flies near Perth has to land here and therefore the planes aren’t at a sufficient altitude for there to be vapour trails above the CBD.  The above image adds to about four that I’ve seen in the three years I’ve lived here.
