Hi everyone, from Cairns, Queensland, Australia

officialphotographer · **January 20, 2013, 08:38:58**

Just got my new 2012 second gen Hyundai i30 active and loving it. I've just posted a pic in the gallery and am just waiting for it to be approved. The first thing I had to do was get the windows tinted as it's super hot in Cairns. And some 18 inch wheels to semi re-live my days as a boy racer lol :-)

Nice wheels too

Haha thanks guys. And Shambles - That pic is from my iPhone lol. However I did put the blue sky in cos it was an overcast day. I was going to do a proper shoot this weekend (being my first weekend with the car), however the weather is still crappy and raining. We haven't had much rain here for months. Of course it comes the week I buy a new car and want to take some decent pics lol ;-),

I just spent 15 mins watching your slideshow and feeling insanely envious of the real estate on show

You have too much time on your hands. May I suggest you take up drinking ;-)

Thanks for the kudos. One of the perks of my business is seeing some super nice homes. I feel envy myself sometimes. I photographed a place a couple of days ago where every home down this particular street had their own private jetty's behind their homes with boats anchored everywhere. Each one of the homes also had massive rear 2 level patios and some of them with their own bars. You could see the rich folk living it up all around. Envious for sure. Still it's nice to see how the other half live.

Maybe I should, though I think I'll have some breakfast first

officialphotographer · **Reply #14: January 20, 2013, 11:02:35**

Breakfast lol it's just about time for bed for me

Oh I do. It's very hot up here and the only way to cool down is with a cold beer
