Mossman Canefields
I found this neat little scene on my way back fro Mossman to Cairns. Took off up a side road and drove for miles to find a spot where the sugarcane wasn’t obliterating the mountains in the background!
This is a scene that is so typical of FNQ and the fact that the Great Dividing Range is so close to the coast makes it a great area for photographers.
On another note, this will probably be my last post for a while. I am just about to head to Gladstone for 5 weeks as the Master of a 40m barge with a huge backhoe on it, basically a non-propelled dredge which is part of the push to build new infrastructure for the Port of Gladstone in Central Qld. It will probably be fairly dull but the pay is well worth it, which means a long overdue camera upgrade is definately on the cards! 🙂

Nice work Tim..you gotta go where the money is these days mate…and you have to think outside of the box and reinvent yourself!
I have been involved as a consultant in the big truck ferries that will be used in the Gladstone project by the way…small world eh!

Cheers Mark, It is a big project over here that will transform the shoreline around Gladstone immensely! Hard to get your head around it sometimes.
