The sunniest Australian state capital and the worlds most isolated capital city Perth sits on the Swan River, below the weathered Darling Scarp. Just to the west is the Indian Ocean along which run some great surfing beaches. The town of Fremantle and jumping off point for Rottnest Island is Perth's Port some some 20km south west of the city centre.

During 2007 I lived in Perth from February to September, during this time I was working. This gallery is a collection of photographs from around Perth and the various places we visited whilst living here.
