Another from Cra­dle Moun­tain, Tas­ma­nia. Those famil­iar of the national park may recog­nise the bridge as you enter the park and pass a water­fall. This is up a lit­tle look­ing back at the bridge behind the water­fall. I was almost tempted to fid­dle with black and white for this image as the sky really is quite dull but I’m attracted to the tones and tex­ture of the fore­ground rock which would oth­er­wise not be appre­ci­ated under a black and white conversion.

Udi at DIYPho​to​ga​phy​.net recently men­tioned my work on his pop­u­lar blog which I greatly appre­ci­ate It’s defi­nately a big thing for me know­ing my work is appre­ci­ated by oth­ers and is some­thing that inspires me to con­tinue shoot­ing.

This was taken on the walk into Pen­cil Pine Falls, Cra­dle Moun­tain. The weather for Dove Lake was ter­ri­ble with it being com­pletely over­cast with no con­trast what so ever in the clouds which wasn’t all bad for other styles of shoot­ing. The con­di­tions as we walked into Pen­cil Pine Falls were quite dark (2-3pm) how­ever the light was so soft and per­fect for what we were soon to shoot. We spent hours just tak­ing our time but I really need to get some gum­boots or some­thing so I can get more in the action but they would look a lit­tle gimpy haha.
