SS Maheno. Fraser Island, Australia. 2004

The Maheno was in service as an ocean liner from 1905, serving a route between New Zealand and Australia. During World War 1 the Maheno was requisitioned as a hospital ship, for use in Australia and eventually Europe. After the war the ship continued as a liner until 1935. Eventually bought by a shipbreaker she was on route when a cyclone detached her from the towing ship and blew her off course to land beached on the shore of Fraser Island, where she has been ever since.

Roy the Puma.
Inti Wara Yassi - Animal Refuge
Villa Tunari, Bolivia. 2003

I worked as a volunteer at the refuge on three separate occasions between 1997 - 2003. On each occasion I was given the most wonderful opportunity to help look after the big cats. Each puma had a trail through the rainforest they would travel with their assigned volunteer. You had to be fit to keep up Running the trail with aa puma. Each day was another adventure, where you may not be sure what would be waiting for you around the next corner! On one particular day with another cat and volunteer - we met a troupe of wild spider monkeys and spent 20 minutes watching the puma and monkeys have a very intimate game of cat and mouse - as the monkeys persisted to sweep low in attempts to annoy the young cat beneath the trees. Cat growls and monkey chatter rose around us, once the monkeys were bored the forest calmed back to the noise of insects and we were back on our way. In this photograph Roy is resting- but he actually was a split second away from jumping at me and knocking me back - after taking the photo! Have you ever heard a cat purr? Well these cats are no different - they purr and lick - and the purr is very noisy ### find out more about the essential work here
