I went for a walk today at Wodonga and saw this beautiful scar tree. A reminder of those who walked the lands we live on for many thousands of years before us
A tall river red gum stands beside the Murray River. The trunk has a scar where bark has been removed for use as a water craft, likely over 200 years ago

Timeline cleanse with a nice picture I took this evening of the aurora at Hume Weir near Albury
A night sky, lit up by Aurora Australis with shades of pink and purple. Hume Weir sits in the foreground and is lit up by electric lighting. Stars float above

Could someone please advise how to fold these without them falling apart? I've tried everything I can think of with no success

If dwarves were indigenous to Australia I bet they'd build stuff like this
Sections of an old trestle railway bridge stand either side of a dirt path. They are built from gum trunks and iron. The path is lined with tall gum trees and you can see bright blue sky above

I took a time-lapse of the lunar eclipse / blood moon. It's a little wobbly cause it was windy but I like it anyway

A tweet by Kayla Ancrum reads: So yesterday I'm sitting at my desk eating figs drizzled in honey and slices of dried sausage and cheese with a rind and my boss comes up behind me and says "what is this breakfast. Why do you eat like a Roman emperor" and then walked away and I've been thinking about it for hours An image in the style of the Bayeaux Tapestry. A heading says Medieval Knievel and has a soldier on horseback coming off a ramp, flying over a crowd of soldiers in helmets and chainmail, carrying shields. Arrows fly through the air A watercolour painting. A hedgehog stands on a hill overlooking other hills. The sky is blue with light fluffy white clouds. The caption reads Mrs Hedgehog was more prickly than usual today and she was just about ready to headbutt some cunts A black and white cat's head pokes out of a Felix cat food box. On the side panel of the box is the logo, which is a black and white cat's head bursting out of the box. The caption reads His coming was foretold

My mum has done her ancestry DNA test (I know, iffy but it's given her a lot of joy). This came up as likely traits and yes, that's me
A photo of a list of likely genetic traits from my mum's Ancestry profile. The heading says "Traits" and the list says "Dancing - unlikely to enjoy dancing; Hangriness - likely to get hangry; and Pet ownership - likely to have a pet"

Anyway there was a cool storm last night and I got some photos on my phone that I was really happy with
#Wodonga
Storm clouds in varying shades of grey. There are three treetops and a streetlight in the foreground A suburban night time scene. The cloudy sky is lit up purple with lightning flashes A fork of lightning in the sky over Huon Hill in Wodonga. The local horse racing track is visible in the foreground A large lightning flash gives Huon Hill in Wodonga apocalyptic vibes. Bright purple and white lightning illuminates the sky and clouds

Flash flooding on the main street of #Albury last night and as far as I can see, not one local news outlet has covered it online. Media is failing regional communities in a big way
Dean St Albury. Several cars parked in front of Regent Cinemas, with water up to their wheel rims. The brick paved footpath is also underwater

Trying to get a long exposure shot of my boyfriend calling up the waves. Didn't exactly go as planned
A man wearing a sage green long sleeved top and sand coloured cargo pants stands on rocks facing the ocean. He is raising his arms but the photographer had long exposure on and it looks like he has four very blurry arms

Bluesky bug friends, what is this?? It's quite large and beautiful!
A large bug, maybe a cicada? Sits on the sand. It has a hard shell, is 5-10cm long, and has large but delicate white wings laced with golden brown. Its shell has black and brown markings and it has large black eyes at the top, wide spaced

I'd done everything I could think of to find Gadge and there had been absolutely no sign of her up until then. I had feared the worst. And now, she's home with me. She had lost a lot of weight and was a bit dehydrated but is otherwise unharmed. This is her the day after she came home. End thread!

PSA: Do NOT buy this paper from Myer. It is expensive, absolutely terrible to wrap with and I don't know what kind of tape you are expected to use but nothing I had at home worked
Two rolls of wrapping paper side by side. The paper is sparkly and in red and green. The label is gold and says "Wrapping Paper 3M. Giftorium Christmas by Myer"

More cloud content incoming! Saw a very cool cloud last night and my partner and I chased it out to Hume Dam
A fluffy cloud floats above a suburban roofline. The setting sun has turned it different shades of gold. A clear blue sky sits above A zoomed in image of the same golden cloud shows tinges of purple and grey The large fluffy cloud, gold and purple, floats above Wodonga Racecourse, there are hills in the background and the rest of the sky is clear There is a curved road in the foreground. Above the road, the magnificent structure of Hume Dam emerges. It's lit up with yellow lighting and the large fluffy cloud, now purple from the sunset sits above

Look at this amazing cloud
A huge, fluffy cumulonimbus cloud floats through a blue sky. The sun is setting and gives the cloud a golden crown, lighting the upper layers with sunlight. The lower layers of the cloud are purple and orange. The silhouette of a tree stands on the right side of the photo and two suburban houses sit below the cloud

This week has been excellent for cloud fans #Wodonga #clouds
A spray of fluffy white clouds puffs upwards against a blue sky, bright in the brief burst of sunshine. Darker grey clouds loom in the foreground. There are trees and roofs along the bottom of the image
