Some Photos

Sorry for being so quiet the last couple of weeks. I don't know where the time went. Not much exciting going on. Mostly work.

I've been taking photos for the last week now that I have my old camera working. There will be more next week as the next roll is developed.

On the right is Trish's daughter Nancy (with the dark hair). The other woman is Nancy's best friend who was visiting that day.

This dinner was for Nancy's 15 year daughter's birthday party held at the house. I have to apologize for this lousy picture. Nancy's younger daughter Belinda took with with food in her hands and somehow managed to get some of it on the lens. From left to right... Me, Trish Lentz, Martin Lenz (behind the smudge), Trish's oldest son Manuel holding one of his daughters.

Same dinner, take from the other end of the table. Left to right... Far left almost out of range is Trish & Martin Lentz, Manuel, Mario, Nancy (Trish's daughter), Nancy's friend, Trish & Martin's son Stephen, Nancy's older daughter - the birthday girl (barely in the shot), and Manuel's wife.

Trish in the kitchen preparing dinner. Mario is looking very hungry. Trish asked me to add the following comment when I took this photo. "Yes, I am Jewish". Note: Mario is the writer/publisher refugee from El Salvador in mentioned here.

Belinda, Nancy's 11 year old daughter playing fetch with the dog out by the pool.

Eric Lentz, the cat who thinks he is a dog.

These are some of the wallabies taking a nap at the cemetery. These are all females and are pretty small compared to the males. This is about as close as I could get.

They are very wary of humans. The one closest to me is standing because she is nervous and is getting ready to hop away.

Here they are again before I got there. Notice the one of the left is wondering what I am doing.

Me at the pool at the Lentz house.

Hillary's Harbour in Sorrento. The white sand beach in the background is a protected kid's beach that is very popular with local families. Hillary's is about a 10 minute bike ride from home.

This is Robyn and Bob Mitchell, friends of Ric's that took me on a tour of Perth this weekend. Very nice people. This is taken at Hillary's.

Cottesloe Beach. One of Perth's most popular and most beautiful beaches.

South Beach. The water here is very clear and warm, and the sand is very white and clean.

The Swan River Delta at Fremantle.

Victoria Quay. This is where the Swam river meets the Indian Ocean. This shot is taken from the south bank at the ferry terminal where the cruise ships are boarded. Across the river on the north side are the industrial docks.
