This is Mount Osore, which is said to be the place where the dead gather. It is a very snowy place and can only be visited during the warmer months. It is also said that the concentration of sulfur in this area is so high that machinery will become unusable in a short period of time. I took this photo with an iPhone because LEICA is risky.
James Craig -150 Years by Leanne LindsayJames Craig -150 Years by Leanne Lindsay
On this day, I had gone into Sydney on the ferry in the hopes of taking some street photographs. On the harbour, in the distance, I could see a boat spraying up water. I didn't take much notice of it but after an hour or so, I started getting curious and paid it more attention. The boat started getting closer and I could see an armada of sail boats of various ages and characters heading towards me. It was then I realised that this parade was to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the James Craig. This magnificent sailing ship was built in Sunderland, England, and launched on 18 February 1874. In her early life James Craig carried cargo far and wide, rounding Cape Horn 23 times. She is Australia's oldest working tall-ship.

"During the seascape photo walk on International Biodiversity Day at the Blue Flag Beach in Kovalam, Chennai, India, I experimented with various photography techniques and captured breathtaking shots. Among them, this particular image taken in the morning portrays a father and his young child expressing pure happiness as they bond by the sea."
