Well, i live and work here, so travel is nothing, and research work gets you free diving and boat trips. So, if anything, i get money back from it.
I'll get those other photos up soon, so many photos, and so little time!

Huge barrel sponge (2.5 feet across).






That's the research station residential wing behind me.

A curious Bandicoot sniffing the shoes.


This is about 2 thirds of our group supporting the Aussie Rugby Union team (and trying to win a competition, which we did!).

Sad news; no more photos for a while. Whilst snorkelling on Magnetic Island, my camera finally gave up on life, after 5 years of loyal and hardworking service.
RIP camera. Now i somehow have to scrape together the funds to get a new setup, as they don't make the IXUS400 anymore.

Please tell me, in the last photo with the rugby sign, that the guy in front, laying in the sand... is wearing pants.

jwedehase, thankfully he was wearing pants. I am standing directly behind him, so it wouldn't have been a pleasant view.
Thanks for the comments people, i'm scrimping and saving hard to get a new camera.
