Circumnavigating Australia with a Camera

Author Kaye Parker introduces her country with pictures

 

Little Grove, WA – How does one display the beauty that is Australia? In 2013, author Kaye Parker and her partner Doug travelled throughout the country and captured the beautiful spots and sites of Australia. She photographed the images from her car window as she circumnavigated the country. All the images in this book, Sign Posting Australia, were taken by the author herself.

 

The author invites everyone to explore new horizons, to look through windows of discovery, and to be in awe of Australia’s beauty and uniqueness.

 

Australia is home to one of the world’s oldest living cultures. Today, Australia is one of the world’s most multicultural countries. Australia’s history has substance, uniqueness and astonishing beauty. From tropical northern rainforests to deserts of the Red Centre, from snowfields in the south east to Tasmania and the Australian Antarctic Territory, from the lush southern forests to the stunning rugged outback, Australia is a vast and varied country that’s ready to be explored, experienced, and enjoyed.

 

For those armchair travellers, those who can’t make the long drives and flights, or those who don’t have the time to discover the different amazing places in Australia, this book is definitely a treat to treasure.

 

The book is available online and can be purchased at www.bookventure.com, www.amazon.com and www.barnesandnoble.com
