Went and took a few snaps at the local motocross track today.

 Imagine humid still Vietnam nights and warm water in the swimming pool.

Blokes on bikes.
Stunning day in Wellington for the last stage of the NZ Cycling Classic

There are actually two caterpillars here. There are so many, they're fighting for food. They've eaten through 6 large swan plants and a few are still chewing on the branches. They've started to spread out and the garden is swarming with them. 

Cool shot :D 

My father in laws place (RIP) has a heap of swan plants, will take look at them next visit.

A couple of recent astro shots

Both shot were a couple of hours of exposure time in total.

Got to be happy with those, that's full epic right there.

 

Yep , pretty happy. Slowly getting better at it, but it's been a fairly long mission and I feel like I'm still at the start.

Nothing like a tree to add a little perspective. 

Before, during and after feeding goldfish in a normally quiet pond in Vietnam...

The last goldfish snap is amazing. Have never seen them captured like this with mouths open. Well done.
