As part of the Tarkine in Motion event, I spent Easter around Corinna. This was on the first night there - just a quiet wander down by the river after the sun went down, trying not to get in the way of other photographers, videographers and artists. As an introduction to the special wild beauty of this area, it was the perfect moment.

Pixie’s Parasol (Mycena interrupta). A fairly common find fruiting on dead wood in forests across Tasmania, the Pixie’s Parasol is hard to miss, shining out like a blue beacon among the greens and browns the mosses, logs and rocks. This is a “focus-stacked” image of 22 exposures taken near Julius River, The Tarkine, during the “Tarkine In Motion” event.

The Paperbark Swamp John Walker

First trip out after replacing all my camera gear that had been stolen. We did a hard overnight bushwalking and abseiling trip to the remote western side of the Colo River. Sunset and sunrise were fairly unimpressive, but I was experimenting with a new 10-stop ND filter to get the brooding clouds.

Canon 700D, 10-22 mm lens at 10 mm, 202 seconds, f/8.0, ISO 100, 10-stop filter.

Walford Peak. Three climbs, each with slowly improving conditions. This time I finally got the views all round, including down over Lake Dora to Spicer and beyond to Marble Bluff.

Returning from camp just above Walford Peak, the road slog along the Lake Spicer Track relieved by the kaleidoscopic patterns of the rocks on the track, and the drifting, lifting cloud hanging over Murchison and the north end of Lake Plimsoll. One of those moment of magic that stay with you for a lifetime ...

Stranded Gayet

About once a year I go out with a birding group and we’d had the morning session and stopped for a cuppa beside some sugar cane field near Ulmurra in northern New South Wales. I’d finished mine and was itching to take a pic or two so I just started off with the Jenny Wren, a bird I normally wouldn’t bother shooting. It turned out so clear though, so being a little short of pics for the comp, I sent it in. I was as surprised as anyone when it won - thanks to my supporters, whoever they may be!
