It was raining here all day yesterday so I sat down & processed all (some anyway) of the photos I've been meaning to do for months. These are all taken on the Fleurieu Peninsular which is a large area but these were taken about an hours drive from here.

These are the remains of some old piers of the old causeway between Victor Harbor and Granite Island.

This was taken looking north along the coastline from the jetty at Second Valley as I was waiting for the sun to set.

This is Victor Harbor railway station. It is the terminus of a heritage railway run by SteamRanger. This is their old "Red Hen" railcar set. These were the Adelaide suburban trains back in the day. I have a video of this train leaving the station on my YouTube channel:
