22 Sept 2014: The Questacon, European Union and RAAF balloons lit up our CBR sky in spectacular style this morning. There is never a dull moment in Canberra during spring. Apart from spectacular sunrises and sunsets there is our annual flower festival Floriade, cycle races and fun runs along with cultural theatre and arts events. The addition of the New Acton restaurant and gallery precinct and the Kingston Foreshore strip are making Canberra a trendy place to visit.

Sunday Perfection
7 Sept 2014: What a perfect start to fathers day. I had the entire lake to myself as I paddled amongst vivid glassy reflections on LBG. Who needs a present when one can have an experience such as this.
Etched Sunset
6 Sept 2014: Today’s sunset will be etched in my mind for a long time. I am continually awestruck by the beautiful sunsets that we are treated to here in Canberra. They are a constant reminder of how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful city. I’m so grateful to be able to experience and share these magical moments with you.
Sensational Start to Spring
1 Sept 2014: Spring has started in sensational style and what a magic morning to be out on Lake Burley Griffin. Spring is always a spectacular season and it won’t be too long before Canberra is in full colour. I can’t wait!
Robin Williams quote sums it up perfectly “Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s party!”
Magic Monday
25 Aug 2014: There was definitely a touch of magic in the sunrise this morning. It seems as though our glorious weekend’s weather has spilled over into Monday. The temperatures are starting to warm up and it won’t too long before the trees are bursting with colour. Spring is nearly here!
Absolute Howler of a Start
11 Aug 2014: What a howler of a way to start the working week. The super moon was just brilliant and the light southerly winds definitely had a bit of bite. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky and this made for a very relaxed morning. It may have been cool, but it was still a classic way to see another day begin.
All the best and have a great week.
A Living Painting
9 Aug 2014: It felt as though I was paddling in a living painting. Mother Nature mesmerised me this morning by beginning the day with gorgeous pastel pinks which slowly transitioned into soft sublime tones. It’s hard to believe that these beautiful conditions would result from subzero temperatures and heavy fog.

Winter Wonderland
6 Aug 2014: What a hair raising sunrise in Canberra this morning. The chilling -6 degree temps continued creating an idyllic winter wonderland. Icicles were glistening everywhere, mist was dancing on the water and the atmosphere was serene. It was definitely worth getting out in these freezing temperatures to experience a morning like this.
Soft as Velvet
28 July 2014: It all began with a hint of pink to the east and it quickly transformed into a stunning sunrise. This morning I was treated to yet again another gorgeous beginning. I hope that you enjoy the photo story of my peaceful paddle.
