Surfing beach from the rocks at Caloundra, 1937

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Surf Spots Caloundra has eight spots facing both north and south. Kings Beach often looks messy and crappy but transforms to hollow, pitching peaks when NEÕers hit. The groyne at the southern end sits on a rock shelf and entertains thick, cylindrical lefts in most NE-SE swells and is protected from any N wind. A bit further south at Happy's, the sandbars that flank the Pumicestone Passage can output long, full lefts. Moffats is home to the mal and somewhere to tune-up on cutbacks between the long, crumbly sections, which are more makeable at higher tides. The Reef is a 20mins paddle and should only be undertaken by accomplished surfers who can manage the drop and spitting keg. Anne Street Reef can get real good on moderate swells, when powerful lefts and rights appear, attracting a crowd. Dicky Beach and Neill St are hollow with a thumping shorey, so naturally a lot of bodyboarders. The surf becomes less crowded and more powerful towards Wurtulla and Long Track in the Currimundi Lake Conservation Park. Source: www.lowpressure.co.uk/surftravelplanner/region.aspx?regio...

Man in studio with animals, Cairns District, 1890s

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Taxidermy is the art of preserving an animal's body via mounting (over an armature) or stuffing, for the purpose of display or study. Animals are often, but not always, portrayed in a lifelike state. The word taxidermy describes the process of preserving the animal, but the word is also used to describe the end product, which are called taxidermy mounts or referred to simply as "taxidermy". The word taxidermy is derived from the Greek words taxis and derma.[1] Taxis means "arrangement", and derma means "skin" (the dermis).[1] The word taxidermy translates to "arrangement of skin".[1] Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxidermy

    Boomerangs are an internationally recognised symbol of Australia. For Aboriginal people the boomerang is as old as creation and a symbol of the enduring strength of Aboriginal culture. The boomerang has also been a popular symbol for tourism and travel, with notions of visitors returning ‘like a boomerang’. The boomerang is a symbol of cultural endurance and a tangible link to the long presence of Aboriginal people on the continent. Boomerangs have many uses for First Nations people, including as a weapon and a tool, for hunting and digging, and in ceremonies. Some are designed to return to the thrower but the vast majority are not. For many thousands of years, Aboriginal groups exchanged boomerangs across the continent. Trade in boomerangs continued after 1788. European fascination with the boomerang, especially the returning variety, meant that early barter with settlers, and then tourists, led Aboriginal people to create an industry making boomerangs. That trade continues today. Source: www.nma.gov.au/exhibitions/defining-symbols-australia/boo...
