The Havaianas 2012 Australia Day Thong Challenge

Cottesloe Beach set the world record with 2088 people on bright yellow thongs and beat last years winner by 712.  The weather was hot but produced smooth conditions and looked spectacular from the air.  The colours were amazing, the water was so clear.

sandy@shots - LOVE THIS!! Makes me homesick. I hear you’ve been having a heatwave….has been around -3 here in Europe. Maybe in 2013 I can join you?
Great aerials as always. Wish I could be there for your ‘photo walk’ but will be there in spirit. Hope you have a great time.

Peta - Thanks Merv, was up circling for around an hour and a half waiting for them to get all lined. Did get a few of them all finally linked just before they all broke up. It was a bit of fun, and the conditions were perfect.

mervfrench - Great shots Peta you must have circled for a while. I don’t think theres a shot of them all in the water at once by the look of it . Probably organized chaos on the beach.

WA HEALTH CONFERENCE 2011

WA Health Conference took place on 29-30 November at the Burswood Entertainment Complex. Keynote speaker Professor Fiona Stanley gave a presentation on Partnerships for Better Health. The Nikon D3S worked well in the low light so I was able to use natural light for the entire event and not interrupt speakers with a flash.
