Helicopter practising buzzing Victoria Bridge for Riverfire Festival, Brisbane 27 Sept 2012
Military helicopter practising its 'buzz the bridge' in preparation for Brisbane Riverfire (on the 28 Sept 2012). Sorry for the bad focus but I was holding the camera in one hand, a coffee in the other and got distracted when I thought someone was behind me and maybe stealing my purse out of my bag. They weren't. Unfortunately, I was also on the wrong side of the bridge. Still, it is a impressive trick, no?

Lunar Eclipse 10-Dec-11, Brisbane
Просмотров 26612 лет назад
Some shots of the lunar eclipse through the clouds. It didn't look very red to the eye, and the camera didn't pick up any colour but it was beautiful to see. Please don't complain about not having the camera on a tripod! I was using the tripod for a separate time-lapse camera.

Parts of South Brisbane/West End Day after Peak Flood, Thurs 13 Jan '11

Went for a walk around South Brisbane and West End with my sister to see the damage after the big floods in Brisbane (at 3am of the 13/1/11). There is no audio for reasons I can't be bothered to explain right now.
St Lucia Ferry Terminal under water, Brisbane Flood, 12 Jan 11
Просмотров 3,7 тыс.13 лет назад
The Ferry Terminal at St Lucia is underwater as the flood waters are due to peak during tonight and tomorrow. Taken at about 1:30pm wed 12 Jan 11. Some of the high rise buildings here have lower levels flooded. I heard on the news a few minutes ago that an apartment building at St Lucia has trapped residents after the elevator shaft flooded (but don't know which if any in this vid).
F-111 Dump & Burn at 2009 Brisbane Riverfire
Просмотров 51614 лет назад
I filmed this at the 2009 Brisbane Riverfire (just found it while cleaning up computer files). Two F-111s dump their fuel in a low fly over the CBD. It was reported to be the last time they were to do this, but I've heard a rumour they may do so again at this year's RiverFire (Sat 4 Sept 2010). Have to wait and see.
RAAF Roulettes Performing at Brisbane RiverFire 2009
Просмотров 21214 лет назад
I found this video I shot back in 2009 of the RAAF Roulettes performing at the Brisbane Riverfire (Sept, 2009). This was the afternoon on before the fireworks and F-111's dump and burn later that night. Sorry for the shaky camera work. The music is by U.S.U.R.A. - Song: 'Drive Me Crazy', album 'Open Your Mind' (1992).
Brisbane Bushfire Smoke Time Lapse 4-Aug-10
Просмотров 16614 лет назад
Filmed the smoke of a bushfire north-north-east of Brisbane CBD. Assuming it is a controlled burn-off in preparation for spring/summer fire season. First time I've done time lapse so this was for practice (sorry that it isn't that dramatic looking but you can see a helicopter or two buzzing around). It is fuzzy at the end because I bumped the camera.
Westall UFO Incident (1966) - Today Tonight 3 June 2010
Просмотров 16 тыс.14 лет назад
Over a 100 witnesses saw something strange over Westall Primary and Secondary School (Clayton South, Melbourne) on April 6, 1966. This piece was done on Today Tonight (Ch 7) referring to a documentary 'Westall '66: A Suburban UFO Mystery' airing on the 4 June 2010 on the SciFi Channel (Foxtel - which I don't get so I won't be able to tell you about it). Here's a link: www.heraldsun.com.au/news/...
Kookaburras mating & preening
Просмотров 9 тыс.14 лет назад
I took this footage last year of a pair of Kookaburras mating on my balcony. A few days later they were back, one of them preening. I'm not sure if it was part of the mating ritual or just that it was itchy. I love how one of the birds tries to chase off a nearby crow. The crow proved much more manoeuvrable in the air.
Red Dust Storm, Brisbane Australia, 23 Sept 2009
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.14 лет назад
This red-orange dust storm hit Brisbane just before midday, after smothering Sydney early that morning. It is a fairly rare event, caused by strong winds blowing sand in from the drought affected bushland and desert regions out towards the coastline. The rain-like sound is actually the wind in the trees. Poor birds were buffetted around all day.
Orange UFO over Brisbane, Australia, 15 Aug 2009
Просмотров 9 тыс.15 лет назад
Ok, I know this is really shitty quality, but my camera couldn't focus properly and the strobe light pollution from the damn Stefan Needle in West End was interfering! It appeared three times on the same evening (Sat 15 August 2009) flying over the north-west suburbs of inner city Brisbane, doing a half-circle towards the CBD. Through my binoculars I could see it was a steady orange light (no r...

Kookaburra Vs Blue-faced Honeyeaters on a balcony
Просмотров 29 тыс.15 лет назад
My usual kookaburra visitor seems nonplussed when a blue-faced honeyeater (also known as a Bananabird) tries to scare it off. The honeyeater gets some of his mates to come back, but the Kookaburra is bigger and not the least bit afraid. After they are gone, it sits there and grooms itself - it is the Lord of the Balcony. Other birds can be heard in the background: crows, rosellas, myna birds, e...

    Hey, I live in Kenmore and I my whole family saw this about an hour ago, we checked the flight radar and nothing appeared in the same area and they aren’t standard aircraft lights because it was orange, not green, red or pure white It kept jittering up and down, got brighter and closer overhead then back away again disappearing into the clouds! Figured perhaps it’s burner trail left from a military jet? I mean with COVID and damn near all flights cancelled seems like a good time for flight training, no clue tho!

    It was 1999 and I was sitting in my lounge room with my brother. It was around 11.30pm. Our lounge room looked over the bay towards Manly with wall to wall windows. It was a 3 story drop the water. This incredibly bright orange light filled our loungeroom. We looked at each other and said "What the Hell?" Then the heat of the light hit us. We couldn't hear any sound. We jumped up to go out on to the back deck to have a better look. That's when it went straight up really fast and disappeared.

    The first person in australia with a phd in ufology and you dont believe that we are being visited? You tell me, after 50 military witnesses in Roswell, 100 sivil witnesses, and in this case around 100, and that not even counting the thousands of other cases all over the world, you don't believe we are being visited? You think that 50 military pilots, generals, trained sky spotters are all hallusinating about the same thing? Worst part is that he most likely believes in god..

    ha, ha what great footage you got, I noticed that there was a juvenile blue-faced honeyeater with the adults as you can clearly see at 4:34 because of the olive-green colourations around the eye instead of blue. Laughing kookaburras don't really care about other birds as long as they don't feel threatened but those honeyeater sure got a bit to curious about the mysterious bird on the balcony next to them.

    Good video. A crow is what most people call Australian Ravens instead of their proper name. A crow is a Australian Raven they are the same bird. Please research Corvids which is what the Australian Raven is. They are extremely clever birds and i love them alot but they can be annoying too. They're emotional birds and very vocal.
