The mighty Melbourne Cricket Ground, and surroundi The mighty Melbourne Cricket Ground, and surrounding suburbs are normally buzzing with excitement on grand final day. This year the stadium sits empty, the dead heart of a lifeless city that has just endured one of the worlds longest and strictest lockdowns. - [ ] A good opportunity for reflection and a vision of what the city might look like next year, especially if the media and authorities declare another ‘pandemic’. Are the good citizens of this once vibrant and eclectic city capable and responsible enough to practice good hygiene, stay home when unwell and protect the most vulnerable members of the community? Or will they need another round of contact tracing and drone surveillance, roadside checkpoints,mandatory masks, curfews and work permits (provided you’re permitted to work). With recommendations befitting the circumstances should people be allowed to choose where they go, who they see, when they work, what they wear and how they interact. Or should those decisions be left to a small group of individuals who’s policies are based on fear and alarmism. Most importantly, should the efficacy and ramifications of the recent measures be open to robust, honest public debate and consultation?Or should all discussion and scientific evidence that doesn’t gel with the narrative be censored and oppressed? Will this city and this state continue to lose its greatest sporting events and it’s revered arts and foodie culture? Or will it find it’s voice and embrace life with all its inevitable challenges and inherent risks? #getbusylivingorgetbusydying #grandfinal #melbourne #dronephotography #cityscape #greatestsportsstadium #sovereignty #footymadcity #wheresthebuzz #dronestagram #fromwhereidrone #dronepilots#droneart#dronejunkie#dronephotos#skypixel#djispark#djiglobal

These Burmese fishermen don’t go out on a full m These Burmese fishermen don’t go out on a full moon because there’s too much light. They need to use their artificial lights to attract the squid to the surface. The new crescent moon is the perfect time to cultivate harmoniously with nature. #traveldreaming #ngpalibeach #burma #myanmar #rockingsunsets #bayofbengal
‘Some of the peaks on the Annapurna range are co ‘Some of the peaks on the Annapurna range are considered so sacred they have never been summited. Other peaks have claimed many lives in man’s pursuit to put himself further and higher in his constant quest to test himself in one of this planets most spectacular and unforgiving domains.’ Extract from part 2 of my trek around the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal.

‘It’s an extraordinary way to live, waking up ‘It’s an extraordinary way to live, waking up everyday and putting on your boots and everything else you need on your back and heading off into the unknown. I mean you have a destination on the map you’d like to get to but essentially you have no idea what you will encounter, what beauty awaits you.’ Extract from part one of my trek around Annapurna.
