It's taken me over a year to post these photos.
I don't post much about myself usually.
My life has changed a bit and my photography has suffered greatly. I'm studying Environmental Science now, while working part time and running an off-grid agroforestry style tropical fruit orchard.
I love our mother nature so much.
But taking photos of this lovely planet is one thing, seeing her suffer is another. Many of these beautiful places are disappearing or deteriorating. I want to be part of the solution, not the problem.
This is why my photography has become a lesser priority. It's been around 10 years that I've been running this account. Great to see that so many of you guys are still sticking around, despite the recent drought of new content.
I'm even contemplating to close down my account. Too much time wasted on social media and not enough time for the things that really matter and that make an actual difference in the real world.
I wonder if social media is actually making our lives better...?

It was awe-inspiring and felt sacred. Ancient, majestic, beautiful and resilient.
And a sad reminder of what this rainforest forest used to looked like, the forest that Aboriginal people maintained for thousands of years.
Until Europeans arrived and cut most of the big trees out in less than 200 years...

This waterfall has one of only a couple of stands of #BunyaPine trees outside of the Bunya Mountains probably dispersed by Aboriginal people hundreds of years ago on their way home from the huge Bunya gatherings that were held in the Bunya Mountains near the Sunshine Coast.
They are so yummy!

This year has been one of the toughest of my life. Lots of losses and lots of challenges.
But at the same time it's been the best year of my life because my dream came true.
I finally have a place in paradise where I can grow a food forest. And its already growing really well.
I've started a YouTube channel called 'Gaia's Garden in Kuranda'
I will post regular updates on the progress and the odd workshop and how-to-guide

Hope the new year brings you all closer to your dreams! And make sure you follow them... πβ€οΈππ½
Cloud forests keep our creeks and rivers flowing all year around.
This is one of the many invisible #ecosystem services our #rainforests provide for us for free. π
A must see for every #birdwatcher!
I got so many good shots and only ever published one here.
Here's a tribute to you Lisa! π
Then I realised how many shots I've never published and so I'm going to upload some throwbacks until my inspiration comes back to produce new works.
Starting with a sunset up at Cape York last year.
