image captionRichard Poulton: " I was lucky enough to blag a ride on one of the many balloons flying over Canberra for the balloon spectacular which takes place every year. I was hoping to get a shot of the balloons flying over Canberra’s Lake Burley Griffin - but, due to the weather conditions, the launch site was moved. So, instead of the lake, I got the newly built suburbs."

For a short time, this water can be up to 1ft (30cm) deep, and the driest transport around is to take a horse and carriage. The rider of this 'water cycle' will no doubt have had wet feet."
