I'd viewed this outcrop with more than plain curiousity but, sadly, it was on the other side of the weir. Then a gentleman came down to the water's edge and we got talking and I mentioned how I'd love to get over there with my camera. He immediately offered me a loan of his kayak and thus I was able to make the journey. There are panoramic views and interesting rock formations to be had here and I spent about 20 minutes just wandering around.

Sometimes the most wonderful moments occur when you least expect them. Early morning walk up to Projection Bluff through the beautiful twisted and stunted forest, as the sun slowly climbs over Liffey Bluff and I climb up to meet it and ... voila.

Despite its seeming remoteness this is actually close to a very urban location. The swamp is located along the Hanging Swamp track in Sydney Harbour National Park at North Head. I have been walking there a couple of times and it's sometimes surprising how you can find small gems like this close to a large city. On my previous visit to the same spot this area was completely inundated, as you may expect of a swamp. I applied a dramatic filter to this shot, which helps illustrate the drought conditions that have prevailed in recent times.

Coast Track southerly viewJohn Walker

WINNER

Discussion on the forum had aroused my interest in revisiting an old favourite custom circuit, which extends the Palm Jungle loop at the south end of Royal National Park, going from Otford via Garrawarra Ridge then off track near Governor Game lookout down Thelma Ridge to join the Coast Track, returning via Burning Palms. Those who know the track would be familiar with this classic view looking south just before entering Palm Jungle. There are many wonderful views along the Coast Track, and in my opinion this is one of the most inspiring.

Not a bad place to be on a Tuesday morningZane Robnik

A November solo circuit over our days in the Alpine National Park was a tough and memorable trip. One feature was the hot build up to afternoon thunderstorms followed by the disappearance of clouds for still clear nights. I was taking in the still after the storms on Mount Clear watching the sun setting at the edge of the snow gums and thought this silhouette of an old and weathered tree suited the scene.

I have a love/hate relationship with the Pedder impoundment. Even when I most deeply grieve over what we lost when the old lake was drowned, I can't deny the beauty of what is there now. Especially on a quiet little exploration trip in the kayak.

From a ramble along the Frankland Shore, on one of those magical clear, still days the south-west so rarely sees.
