Competition: Landscape May 2013
Moonlight over Lake PedderBiggbird
This shot was taken from Red Knoll Lookout on a beautiful evening after a day spent climbing the Sentinel Range and Mt Sprent. A pleasant breeze drew the clouds across what felt the like the biggest, yellowest moon-rise I had ever seen, lighting up all of the Southwest Peaks. Something pretty special to sit and contemplate by oneself.

Driving from Melbourne to Adelaide we took the scenic detour through the Grampians. To stretch the legs we walked up to the Pinnacle. You can start from Halls Gap but to save time we began at the Wonderland car park. The track makes its way through some impressive rock features where walls of rock line both sides of the track. This photo was taken from inside one of these features: the Grand Canyon. Closer to the top is the narrower Silent Street. It is a very popular route with good views from the Pinnacle.

Abel-bagging is not for the faint of heart, nor for those allergic to a little scrub, fog/rain/hail/snow/wind etc. Two and a half days of glorious weather on the way out to High Dome were followed by two days of yukkiness when it was Tramontane summit time. This was as good as it got. And the views from Tramontane? Ask someone else - I'll have to go back to find out.

The image was taken from a helicopter over the northern Tarkine area. I can't determine just where, but I was fortunate to get the last of the golden light across the low-lying cloud.

This photo is of ferns along the Mavista Nature Walk in South Bruny Island, Tasmania. The previous week we went to an exhibition at the Tasmanian Art Gallery and Museum about patterns in nature. The exhibition introduced me to fractals: never-ending patterns which are self-similar across different scales. A fern is a fractal. The fronds repeat the pattern of the blade. This understanding gave me a greater appreciation of the beauty of ferns.

This photo was taken whilst out climbing a 270 metre rock climbing route called "Bunny Bucket" high above the Grose Valley. If you look hard enough, you may even spot a couple of my mates climbing on another nearby route.

The variable weather on this trip to Bruny Island added great drama to otherwise fairly stock-standard (but always beautiful) happy snaps. The frequency of rainbows appearing this day was so high I just had to wait for the next shower to arrive, get my shot, then retreat to the car before it hit.

Tarkine forests are special, and never more so than in fungus season. I was lucky enough to get in to Tiger Ridge for a few days at the height of the season, and was spoilt for choice as to where to point the camera. But this little pair were a standout.
