My Secret Love Affair

MOOLOOLABA

Not Port Stephens but if I was to move anywhere in the world it would be here. Beautiful beautiful Mooloolaba. It is the one place in the world I can go on holidays and never be ready to go home. I can't wait to get there, once I arrive it is like a weight is lifted from my shoulders, I'm happy, I smile and laugh without a care in the world. I run on light feet, dance and sing. And when it is time to leave I feel like my heart is breaking.

This photo was taken with my birthday preset. I didn't take a tripod with me so it was down to my best efforts to balance the camera on the balcony railing of our apartment after a few champagnes.... Not perfect but still not too bad. Taken with the Sony Alpha 7R5. What a camera! I love the 7R3 but I'd have to say I could tell the difference straight away! And of course with my new Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens. I am so incredibly spoilt - thank you family!

And as for you Mooloolaba... all I can say is I won't leave it so long to come back this time. My secret love affair with you continues. Stay the same, I miss you already.
