Live steam and Thomas

Headed out to Luddenham in Sydney's south west to have a look at some model trains, cars & planes. The day was rather windy so not many planes were in the air but that didn't stop the trains and cars. At the Model Farm on Luddenham Rd, I got a glimpse at some 5 & 7 inch model live steam trains. Click one of the photos below to view the rest of the photos from SSME Luddenham.

Shortly after we headed out to Vicary's Winery, which incorporates The Train Shed. On weekends and public Holidays they run Thomas and Friends 5 inch model trains for kids to ride on. They have - Thomas, Gordon, Percy and a few others. Click on one of the photos to view the other trains at The Train Shed.

Favourite Photos - Jellybean Pool

Trying a little positive note. Here are a few photos that I took. This is my first real attempt at this type of photography. Let me know what you think.

Joys of eBay

I recently purchased a Mini GPS recorder from eBay on the advice of some friends that it would make geo-tagging my photos easier. This I do not doubt but the problem is, is it does not work. The item purchased is a photoMate mini GPS Recorder 887 Lite. It was pretty much DOA. It does not save any data when it is tracking. To rectify this situation I must now send it back to Taiwan, and await the seller to send it back to the manufacturer, then receive the verdict. I am quite sure it is broken as I also had a friend who has the exact same device test it out for me, and it failed. To add to the hurt the seller (navi-world) is a piss poor communicator and it takes days for them to respond to any communication. I should just start a case with eBay and let them deal with it. It is going to cost $20 to send it back. The unit is only worth $30. Question is: Do I cut my losses and buy a new one or follow this through?

Favourite Photo - Flying Embers

I had only recently gotten my camera and Got called away with the RFS to head to a large fire burning in Nowra. I took my camera along to experiment with it at night as I was doing the night shift on the fireground. I took this photo when the wind came up and I noticed the trail being left in the air by the embers. I was amazed at how it turned out, seeing that I had no idea about settings or f stop or anything to do with my camera at the time.
