Dezi Freeman killed in 'developing situation' at property in Victoria

Freeman had been wanted since last August over the fatal shooting of two police officers at Porepunkah.

Victoria isn't particularly known for #aurora, but with the sun being at its solar maximum it's a great time to keep an eye on the night sky.

Despite spending about 9 weeks in Iceland and Norway (during late autumn/winter) the past 18 months, two of the best Auroras I've ever seen have been right here where you normally never see them. Fingers crossed for some more soon!

A few #winter scenes from the highlands here in #victoria #Australia.

Given the size of the Australian Alps we actually get quite a lot of snow, although with climate change the amount of snow and how long it settles has changed drastically over the years. But it's always a time of year I look forward to photographing.

Our visit to #Porepunkah, #Bright, #MountBuffalo. A tiny green caterpillar, a view across to far mountains, Chrissy walking on the path, and check out the last photo - a gorge cliff face and can you see the tiny humans at a higher lookout in their neon cycling gear? Great for scale.
The long and winding road. It leads to The Horn lookout, Mount Buffalo NP Victoria Australia, where this photo was taken. #naturephotography #landscapephoto #mountbuffalo #victoria #australia
