<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" Perhaps I won’t even talk about this image as the title should tell all.

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" Every time I see an ice trail in the sky I marvel at that little grey dot 8,000m above me. I ponder the possible stories of the hundreds of souls above me. I wonder where are they going and from where have they come. I reminisce the journeys I have made … Read more
<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" With the current rebuilding of the Patawalonga lock walkway we have a new, but temporary, view of Holdfast Shores so hence the inspiration for creating this image. An image like this one is not easy to come by. The long exposure requires that the conditions be very calm or else the … Read more

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" I was oh so close to using the word ‘mirror’ in my title. These two cruisers are really quite different but the combination of apparent and real reflections gives the impression of sameness well before the differences become apparent.

<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" These little jugs looked so cool in the ‘bad light’. Something about the highlights, the gold, the colourful hand painted motifs made me capture that coolness forever. Photo: Robert Rath, ‘Day 903, Jugs’ 1/4000s f/4 ISO100 200mm
<a href="/serendipity/" title="Robert's Ramblings" As I stared into the strange geometry of the SAHMRI building I was taken back to an equally wondrous building I remembered from earlier times.
