When I was leaving Eighty Mile Beach, took some lovely drone shots (if I say so myself) over the aqua green blue water, white and yellow sands….and then I got a ‘backward sensor vision calibration error’ on my drone….panic stations! Retrieved the drone and phoned DJI, who sent me an email with a software download. Groan…only a few hours to download the recalibration software. So I proceeded to Broome, after taking a photo of this strange cadaver set up by caravan park staff 🙂

After a good night’s sleep at Cable Beach caravan park, started to download the software, and it was amazingly easy to recalibrate the drone. Thank goodness. Lovely 80 Mile Beach!!!

Off to Derby, via Roebuck and Willare. Can I say, the Roebuck road station is AMAZING! Pre-prepared meals; salads; sandwiches that you can takeaway, all healthy….rather than the usual heavily fatty carb offerings of pies, pastry-encrusted sausage, chips etc. Also great coffee, a swimming pool, pub that offers lunch and dinner, and if the road-crew weren’t doing road refurbishments…accomodation options also. And soooo clean!!! Setting a standard for the industry, that’s for sure.

Love a boab tree, and there was a grouping in a row outside Willare road station. 

A fantastic photo inside by Paul ? (couldn’t read the last name) in 2006, of a ‘lizard drinking’, had to capture it.

Minnie Bridge offered nice views over the Fitzroy River.

Incredible views over some tidal mudflats from Derby jetty. And a silly sculpture too….

And incredibly, discovered ‘Stan’ is filming one of its comedy crime thriller series, “Population:11″ in Derby. A man goes missing and a desperate stranger arrives to investigate its motley crew of townsfolk. So I had to get permission to photo this….(which will appear in the series as a ’take’….)
