Council to lose hiring control after ex-MP's controversial appointment The NSW government is set to take control of senior leadership recruitment at Shoalhaven City Council, amid probity concerns regarding the hiring of former Liberal minister Andrew Constance.

Ooh we made the news! Mostly thanks to the effort of one man. But many of us have complained and tried to raise the alarm. #Shoalhaven Council is on the nose. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

Live in the Shoalhaven? This SCANDAL is a MUST READ. Shoalhaven City Council’s obscene mismanagement of ASBESTOS at Tomerong Quarry is a case study in local government failure—cover-ups, incompetence, and oversight that never arrived.👇

Pelicans on a driftwood log on the Shoalhaven River estuary at sunset

Always love seeing the pelicans down at the river estuary chilling out after a hard day harassing the silver gulls at the boat ramp. This is the Shoalhaven River estuary at low tide, looking west towards the setting sun.

New CEO sets vision for Shoalhaven Council's new CEO Andrew Constance has set out his vision to lead the organisation into its next chapter.

Frankly I expect a Council CEO to have KPI’s. Not visions. Vision is the Council’s role. His is implementation. He’s a politician, not a public servant. #OLGNSW #Shoalhaven #Constance www.shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au/News-and-fee...

Cheeky bit of sunset colour tonight had me thinking the drone was a better option than the Fuji, so I sent it up and shot a 180º pano over the Shoalhaven River estuary and Seven Mile Beach.

In another life I was a magazine journalist, a career I greatly enjoyed. So it's been nice to start writing professionally again for one of the regional magazines here in Australia. (I also provided all the photographs). ℅ South Coast Style.

The sky explodes with colour as the sun rises over Seven Mile Beach. The vibrant hues of orange and yellow meet the cooler tones of purple and pink, reflecting on the wet sand. The long exposure blurs the waves, creating a smooth, ethereal feel. 🌅📸

Sometimes you just need to let the landscape do the talking in a photograph, like the sky explodes in colour like this sunrise a couple of years ago on the local beach.

Sun rise over Seven Mile Beach. The waves gently roll onto the shore, reflecting the fiery hues of the sky. The composition leads the eye from the foreground sand, blurred by the slow shutter speed, to the horizon where the sun is just beginning to peek through the clouds. The weather is calm, allowing for a long exposure to capture the movement of the water. 🌅🌊❤️

Sky fire over the local beach called for a bit of cheeky 'long' exposure, though not sure that 1/4s counts as long. This was hand-held thanks to IBIS and lens stabilisation.

Having a lovely creek a couple of minutes from the house is handy when you've accidentally slept-in and realise (nearly too late) that the sky is on fire. 🔥 🔥 🔥

Usually it's just me and the silver gulls hanging out on Seven Mile Beach during winter sunsets like this one. They seem much more accepting of my presence when it's cold!
