Taken on our recent trip to Bribie Island this weekend. We saw more of the island on this trip that either of us ever had, and had no idea how beautiful it is!
A panorama of the view from Poverty Point (Poverty Creek Campsite). It's on the north western side of the island, and is on Pumistone Passage (it's only accessible by 4x4). - the mountains in the background are the Glasshouse Mountains (the largest one is Mount Tiprogargan):

This was taken on the way to Poverty Creek Campsite:
These were taken at the almost tip of Bribie. It's only accessible by 4x4 and it is some of the lovliest stretch of beach i've seen in a long time (it's about a 20km trip up the eastern side of the beach). It certainly rivals Fraser Island, and the fact that you can actually swim in the ocean here makes it awesome! The city to the left of my head in the first pic is Caloundra (on the mainland).
The Beast:
On the way back, we stopped at Norfolk Creek. The water is fresh, and the orange to blood-red stain in the water is caused by water running through the scrub into the creek. It mostly comes from dead pine needles.
