1 . I first visited Western Australia for work in 2013. I fell in love with northern WA and have been back six times. Some of my favourite photographs were taken there. I have made over 140 work trips, but my best work trip ever was to Broome in the Kimberley region.
It is extremely beautiful and you can experience the indigenous Australia there more than anywhere else. The Kimberley region, in particular, is unique and untouched. As a photographer, I love the bright light and amazing colours: red rocks, green plants, blue-green waters and blue skies.
To work full time in travel, you have to love nature. I try to take every opportunity to get outside and admire the natural world. I love to photograph the rising sun, so I force myself into the natural world by waking early each day. I also enjoy photographing animals, such as dolphins and kangaroos.
I use my photography to make an impact on people, especially when it comes to environmental issues. Today I’ve been photographing a crocodile swimming close to your boat, the Kimberley Quest, all day. When I post the picture online, I will make a comment about how bad it is to feed wild crocodiles. This crocodile is used to passengers throwing food from boats and now she is becoming familiar with humans. Over time, this could make her a danger to people living in the area. If I can do something to make others aware of the problem, then that’s part of the solution.

2 . Here in Volcano Village, we re excited to be ready for the Experience Volcano Festival at last! First held in 2019, delicious food and live music were among the highlights (最好的部分)of the festival.
This year, we kick off a celebration of the culture, people, and traditions of the Volcano Area with the Ohia Lehua Half Marathon and 5k Run, starting at 7 am on August 14th at the Cooper Center. The Ohia Lehua race, including running through a beautiful Ohia (桃金娘花) forest, was created to be a platform (平台) for spreading awareness about ROD (Rapid Ohia Death) and will continue to educate the community on how to preserve these precious (珍贵的) Ohia trees.
Following the race, head to the Kilauea Lodge for the Opening Oli Hawaiian Chant at 10 am, which will surely leave you inspired to immerse (使沉浸) yourself in Hawaiian culture. The festival offers lots of opportunities to learn everything from traditional poi pounding to the history of the ukulele.
Then head to the Volcano Art Center for a rainforest tour or take a walk through the Secret Garden at the Volcano Garden Arts. After the walk, buy some plants there to bring home to your own garden.
This is just the beginning of all the unique activities that the Experience Volcano Festival features. For those of us who live and work in Volcano, the festival is our chance to share the food, music, art, activities, culture, and nature that make our area such a treasure. And don’t forget the delicious food! Throughout the day, have grindz (delicious eats) at the Ohelo Cafe, Cafe Ono, and Kilauea Lodge, to name a few.
Finish up the day with Happy Hour, Festival Evening Specials, and live music at the Lava Rock Cafe and the Lava Lounge at the Kilauea Military Camp. Almost all of the Experience Volcano Festival events will be free to the public, so save the date and join us in Volcano on August 14th!
