Queensland Retro Cruise Days & Nights had their Country Paradise Parklands show and markets on the 29.8.26. Despite many other big shows on, the turnout was huge! I feel like I am doing this all the time but I'm apologising in advance to those I didn't manage to get shots of. I got there early with the intention of catching you all arriving but alas it didn't work out that way. I got caught chatting and it seemed to be the theme of the night. There were many that I missed but hopefully Andy's auto art got you.

This will be a 3 part post. Feel free to share and tag ya mates. Remember, do not alter in any way or remove watermarks from these images. It's a breach of Copyright! If you want the image, feel free to support me by purchasing it.

I couldn't make it out to Joe's this morning as I was already committed to The 98 Club Inc show down at Superformance Pty Ltd. I was there taking photos. If you drove past or even stopped for the event, look out for the photos in the coming days. I heard there was also a Corvette show and did snap a few Vettes going past, aswell as a few bikes. I have decided to do my part for Callum and will be donating 50% of any digital media sales this week to his Go Fund Me. Please take me up on this, grab an image and donate to this good cause at the same time. Professionally printed and framed photos are also available. Message me for pricing as it will vary.

I know the automotive community are all rallying behind Callum. Let's keep it going. If you have a few spare dollars to chuck his way, it'll make the world of difference. Bullying is not ok and i hope the cowards involved are brought the full force of the law.

Callum’s story is heartbreaking, and he’s already made great progress toward his goal, reaching over 75%. This fundraiser is just getting started, and sharing it can make a big difference in helping his family cover ongoing medical costs and support him through recovery. Even if you can’t donate right now, a quick share can help it reach someone who might be able to support. Let’s come together to help Callum get back to being the happy, strong boy we all know and love ❤️. Please like, comment, and share to spread the word!

I’m writing this as one of Callum’s friends, because what happened to him has left all of us completel… Callum W needs your support for Callum and his family
