Alex Wise Photography

This little waterfall is located along Strickland Avenue (funny that ha) and is towards the end of the road as you approach Ferntree. For anyone interested, the car park is quite obvious so you shouldn’t have much trouble finding it. The waterfall itself doesn’t have a easy access path so you have to hop over rocks at the quiet patch of the stream. Don’t worry though this is really easy and the rocks are dry so you don’t have to worry about slipping so just take it easy and you’ll be alright. Once you’ve crossed to the other side you then make your way up a dirt path for a minute or two and bang.

For this shot I used a .6 and .9 cokin neutral density filter to heavily darken the waterfall but create great emphasis on the leaves in the foreground.
