It was a late winter's day and I wanted to go for a walk to test a new telephoto lens. A was a bit short on time so I decided to revisit the Curra Moors Circuit in Royal National Park, an old favourite. Making quick work of the first four kilometres or so I arrived at the Coast Track near the ubiquitous Eagle Rock. I took a lunch break overlooking Curracurrong Creek and noticed a White Faced Heron wading in search of its lunch. With the zoom lens I was able to get a bit closer without disturbing the bird - something that never happens for me with wildlife!

Waking up late the last night's winds had died down and the sun had returned for another day. Mist poured over The Rodways, petering out across the frozen glacial lakes when I continued across the Tarn Shelf. Read the whole story on my blog.

In mid-winter I went snow-shoeing at Mt Field Plateau Circuit. On one of the clearest blue-skied days I'd ever witnessed I saw a Wedge-tailed Eagle near K Col. Read the whole story on my blog.

In winter my friend and I went on a trip to the tip tops of the Mt Eliza Plateau in South-West Tasmania. The picture was taken near our camp on the plateau. Read the whole story on my blog.

The Flinders Ranges in SA are a very long series of ranges stretching north south. They go from higher rainfall southern sections to far north desert sections. But in all cases it is a corridor of mountains with vast plains on either side, sometimes with large salt lakes in view.
This photo was early morning from the Dutchmans Stern Conservation Park near Quorn in the middle Flinders. On a long trip into Eyre Peninsula we opted for a bivouac on the mountains rather than a motel room. Much better to get in some exercise and to enjoy a nice quiet meal in the outdoors on rock seats with views that went forever. On the walk out in the morning, we went to the key lookout on the track. Here we had a great platform with a view towards our later destination - somewhere way out there beyond the horizon. The foothills were still a lovely green from winter rains and we remembered an earlier wet walk on the Heysen Trail that comes up through the creek beds directly below. Some Wedged-tail Eagles were drifting on the winds overhead as we enjoyed the view. A motel room had no chance against this kind of experience.

I took this photo as a part of a trip to climb Goulds Sugarloaf. It was a glorious time of year, and much of the walk was done in snow. The expedition involved two sunrises, both of which were pretty perfect in my eyes. This is one image from one of them. More pictures can be seen in my blog and/or instagram accounts.
