It’s quite a 30th anniversary year for Aurora Expeditions, the Australian-owned adventure company founded by renowned mountaineer and explorer, Greg Mortimer, and his wife Margaret. For decades they have taken travellers to remote and remarkable places all over the world.

But for this year, they have quickly and skillfully reinvented themselves, coming up with remarkable voyages — many along the Western Australian coast.

The picturesque Claisebrook Cove in East Perth is a great place to practice your photographic skills.

From riverside scenes to contemporary architecture, and a park with a creekline to the graphic lines of the Trafalgar Bridge, there’s plenty for the eye to fall on.

This photowalk is aimed at smartphone users but participants with traditional cameras are welcome too.

a new book by Stephen Scourfield
