Annette Kelly
I am an amateur photographer from Geelong who is enjoying retirement through my travels with the camera. My passion is Landscape and Astro photography.
On visiting Lake Tyrrell just recently, I was amazed at the beauty from dawn to dusk and beyond into the beautiful star studded night. I was blessed with little wind and clear skies at night, perfect for astro. The dawn broke with colours and reflections a photographer dreams about.
Lake Tyrrell is definitely on my bucket list to visit during a summer storm and early next year for the start of the Milky Way season in 2022.

Cloud Rider... I had an idea. We grabbed a $1 bike from the tip on the way out of Swan Hill. Anything metal will begin to rust on contact with the salty Lake Tyrrell. It was a still June afternoon and the clouds were reflecting beautifully in the shallow water.
Crystallography... Salt crystals forming on bare branches create a stunning natural sculpture.

We visited Sea Lake in mid September 2022, leaving grey old Melbourne and heading to a point far, far away. I expected a quiet country town, but the local warnings that it was “mad Monday” and the footy boys would take over the local pub, turned out to be true, and the town was alive.
Lake Tyrrell turned on its serene beauty as dusk turned to night, and for me this shot of the aluminium lounge seating captured the transition from day to night, and perhaps a physical connection the expanding universe. The lake was holding pink salty waters due to recent heavy rains, and the only animal life present appeared to be human.
