This was initially a photography trip to Point Peron at Rockingham to practise my photography on the coast ( Olympus EM1 Mark2 ) and have an overnight stealth camp , I did not expect to see the amount of people set up almost permanently in so many areas which were once the domain of the stealth and van life campers .

Great footage of powerstation. I'm also enjoying just filming. Loving it now. Sad about homeless. My kids 22 & 24 cannot buy or rent a house. This was known years ago that house prices and rentals will keep rising, past and present politicians have done nothing about it. We need to stop immigration for minimum 10 years. Other countries don't bring in immigrants. Eg, Japan.

Cheers for the comments and watching , something needs to be done seeing family's sleeping rough not by choice is a shame , don't know how they get kids off to school and go to work leaving your possessions on the side of the road literally

Thanks again for the great video Peter, nice pics of Pt Peron. All very familiar, I work in Rockingham. We used to be able to drive on that horse beach. Was the closest beach we could drive on in the metro area.

Checking out our back yard eh? :) Hopefully we don't become a second Mandurah LOL On a serious note, homelessness here is terrible. Dorothy works a couple of days a week at the local Salvation Army centre and the number of people sleeping rough is increasing dramatically. Last winter at least one lady was found passed away in a tent while sleeping rough. The government isn't doing nearly enough to help people in real need. The RSL park was all ripped out a few years ago - another total disgrace.

This track is pretty strong (maybe watch on mute), but the American band Fear Factory filmed the video for their song 'Cyberwaste' at the old power station during their 2004 tour. A slightly odd claim to fame. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-clV9r-ZW3hM.html

I don't begrudge anyone from having to sleep where they have to, but these places are going to be closed off to the public because of the garbage left behind, anti social behavior that will come from these "stealth" campers, just look at South Mole and the reason why that is closed, a good fishing spot that I can no longer go to because of the actions of a few scumbags. You may view things differently, I don't.

I have seen so many areas closed due to a few , a shame the monitoring was not more stringet then the few may rethink what they are doing and not spoil it for the many as for those that are there due to lack of affordable housing I think there is no quick fix
