I’ve driven the Great Ocean Road in Victoria quite a few times. Each time, I’ve noticed the rainforest of the Otways and thought “I should go in there one day”.
I had a couple of weeks free in early June, so “one day” finally arrived. The weather wasn’t ideal, but I managed to visit Hopetoun and Beauchamp Falls in the Otways, with a brief stop at Gibson Steps on the Great Ocean Road.

Noosa. Longboards. Dawn. Can never get enough.
As much wildlife as we saw on KI, I didn’t really photograph a lot of it.

Australian Sea Lions
Sooty Oystercatcher
New Zealand Fur Seal
Tammar Wallaby
But we also spotted:
Kangaroo Island Kangaroos
Echidnas
Cape Barren Geese
Koalas
Lots of birds, including Crimson Rosella, Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoo, Superb Fairy-Wren
I never really knew why, but Kangaroo Island is somewhere I’ve wanted to go for a long time. I’m glad I did.

My third trip to Japan in May wasn’t really a photography trip, but I did manage to spend some time making photographs of some people.
