Yes, we are far away. Further away than we initially thought we would be. We'd planned to blog as we go, yet most places we find ourselves in have no mobile or internet reception whatever. If there is any, it's very sporadic and drops out in a few minutes. So we're sorry if you're checking in for updates and tutorials—there won't be any till we are back in civilization! Photography is going crackers. Crazy daisies up north of Perth, lightning storms and whales and prostrate banksias down south. Every kind of imaginable flower and seed pod and leaf in between! It's been fabulous. We'll just have to keep on photographing and catch up with the website soon!

 We are currently around the Walpole area of southern Western Australia. Big trees at last! We are very, very happy with the material we have gathered along this trip. We hope to present some truly amazing photographs of Western Australian wildflowers as they have never been seen before: almost a bee's-eye-view, in some cases. It's astounding—some flowers you would dismiss from the roadside as rather uninteresting; yet up close (which is our arena) you see the most glorious details. Worlds within worlds... there is so much out there. If you only take the time to look. We've had many table-thumping conversations about this lately: who really does stop to look? We are all so busy going so fast, we only have time to have an "expert" interpret for us whilst we're on the run. Just give us a few, easily digestible morsels to give us an impression that we've been there... How few of us have the trust in our own instincts to just sit; without guidebooks or guides; in nature and absorb and interpret it for ourselves?
