It's amazing what you can do now with a fucked up picture on the computer. A lot of these were taken through the bus and train window when traveling home. The bus seemed like it had absolutely no suspension, and the camera was going everywhere. The train was better but the window was very tinted. So fixing them involved getting rid of the window tinting, straightening them up, and applying some sharpening to reduce the blur of a moving camera. Have been very pleased with the results.
They're not in any order, but I will crap on about them before.

These first few were not long after leaving Lightning Ridge for home on the bus. Flat land, much of it flooded in Jan as the water came down from up north. There's been no rain at all though now for three months there. Even at 9am or so when I took these, you can see the heat in the distance shimmering and looking like water.
These were much nearer Sydney on the train, and farmlands. They've had a bit of rain recently and looking green. Hilly land. Very different than from earlier in the trip.
These a few around Lightning Ridge:
This one the Community Centre where I posted on the blog a couple of times.
Here is the highest bit in Lightning Ridge. In the distance is farmland, which was all underwater in Jan. The foreground shows a camp where people live and mine opal.
And here is the town centre. The Lightning Ridge megalopolis.
Simon's front yard and driveway. And some of his land where he is. The neighbours can't hear you there... he he.....
