My summer holidays have almost come to an end, it's back to work again tomorrow. We're back from a great holiday in Scotland and of course I took a few pictures. It will take some processing time, but I'll share some photos on Facebook in the next couple of days.As an appetiser, here's a panorama shot of Loch Lomond just after sunset. It's stitched from 5 portrait photos.

Within a two-hour drive south of Sydney, the Minnamurra Rainforest Centre is located just 15 km west of Kiama on the NSW South Coast (Tourist Drive ’9’). The centre offers visitors an opportunity to experience a rare rainforest remnant which is representative of the once extensive rainforests of the Illawarra region.
