I shot this image on a favourite circuit walk which returns via the Rodriguez Pass in the upper Blue Mountains. Due to landslips in the valley over the past few years Beauchamp Falls has become a bit more obscure to visit than my earlier recollections of it. You can scramble down a short distance from the track and approach the falls more closely by rock hopping. On this occasion I was impressed by the flow and the afternoon colours, so thought it worth the short deviation to photograph them.

Chalahn Falls at Lamington National Park are sometimes overshadowed by their more well known (and easier to access) neighbour Elabana Falls. In my mind though, they are equally magnificent, and provide many options for photography. On this occasion I was fortunate to arrive during a gap in the constant rain and drizzle and got this shot before it started again. The leeches were ferocious though, and I was flicking them off the tripod and camera in between shots.

They say the view is worth the climb, but I’m not sure the heat exhaustion and a nearly broken ankle were supposed to be a part of the deal! I took this photo on our rest day, while I nursed a severely swollen ankle. In hindsight I’m glad this amazing place is hard to reach, as it’s as fragile as it is special.

A grasshopper with attitude - and a penchant for swimming - who hopped into and paddled across a pool, and then crawled out next to where I was enjoying a sunny snack, and was kind enough to pose while I grovelled around on the wet ground with the camera. Or maybe s/he was just hoping for a bit of chocolate ...
