Gordon Dam - Tasmania

This amazingly flat water was taken at Gordon Dam in central Tasmania. The ripple in the lake was as simple as me throwing in a stone before taking the image - Cool huh?

This image is now available for purchase on a postcard, mouse pad, photo magnet, poster and more at my store Image Australia

Beautiful Tasmanian Coastline

This shot was taken near the Tessalated Pavement in Tasmania.
I love the way the trees frame the shot.

Tasmanian Rainbow

This shot was taken from the side of the road in North East Tasmania, exact location unknown. Amazing what you see when you spend so much time on the road.

Wine Glass Bay - Tasmania

This tranquil place is called Wine Glass Bay (for obvious reasons). It is in Freycinet National Park in Tasmania.
The walk to the beach from this photographing location was steep and very tricky. The way back was a killer!

Amazing View - Mt Wellington, Hobart

This shot was taken from the top of a chilly and windy Mt Wellington in Hobart, Tasmania.
I love the way the mountains slowly fade off into the distance

Gordon Dam - Tasmania

This perfectly still water was taken from the amazing Gordon Dam in central Tasmania. The road out here was 90kms long and it just ended.... the only way out was all the back the way you came! Well worth the effort mind you.

Wildlife Wednesday 17 - Quoll

This is a rare Quoll we caught glimpse of in Tasmania near Strathgordon Dam. These are apparently very shy creatures, this one however came right up to us and started smelling my boot. Brave little critter!

Wildlife Wednesday 16 - Onion Munching Sheep

I know sheep are pretty boring but these ones weren't - they were munching a farmers onions in a field that had a ton of onions drying in the sun. Who would have thought they would have eaten raw onions!!

Moss Covered Rocks - Nelson Falls

This shot was taken in central Tasmania and I love the green of the rocks. The atmosphere was so wet here, the rainforest was thriving.

Binalong Bay in the Bay of Fires

Binalong Bay is a truly beautiful place on the east Coast of Tasmania. The beach here is rated as one of the most beatiful in the world. It was overcast when we arrived here and as you know beaches don't look good unless the sun is shining! We walked to the far end of the beach and waited, the sun only popped out at intervals but we managed to get a few good shots. This remains a top favourite spot of ours.

Low Tide, Port Sorell, Tasmania

We did not stay in Port Sorell but we passed through. Low tide makes for an interesting image of the boats leaning on their bottoms.

Pirates Bay, Tasmania

I love the way the cliffs stand out in this shot of Pirates Bay in Tasmania.
There are a few interesting things to see in the Pirates bay area including 'Doo Town', The Tessalated Pavement, Devils Kitchen and Eagle Hawk Neck. Well worth a visit.

Sunrise aboard Spirit of Tasmania

Well..... as requested in a comment on the last post by 'Wind', here is the sunrise from the Spirit of Tasmania on the morning we couldn't sleep. I love the dramatic clouds.

Spirit of Tasmania Ferry

This is the ferry from the Prot of Melbourne, Victoria over to Devonport in Tasmania. We took the 4x4 over with us and I thought the fare was reasonable. The journey takes 9 hours and we did an overnight run without the benefit of a cabin. Instead we had to sleep in what I can only descride as airplane chairs! Needless to say we were up early the next day watching the sun rise! I have a picture for a later date, stay tuned ;)

Richmond Bridge - Tasmania

This is the oldest remaining bridge in Australia. It is Richmond Bridge over the Coal River in Tasmania. Richmond is a wonderful little town and nowhere reminded me more of home in the Cotswolds (UK) than here.

Nelson Falls, Tasmania

Tasmania was full of beautiful waterfalls and this one is no exception. Nelson Falls is in central tassie and was a very popular place when we pulled up. I used a slow shutter to get this silky waster shot.

Wildlife Wednesday 7 - Pademelon

This little guy is called a Pademelon, he came walking into our camp one night in Tasmania looking for food. Pedemelons are marsupials and very similar to Wallabies and Kangaroos only smaller.

Blow Hole - Bicheno

Bicheno is a great stop on the east coast of Tasmania. They have a great campsite up on the hill with views over the ocean. Another reason to visit is the Blow hole, this is created when waves crash into small cracks and holes and the water is then forced out. We arrived at exactly the right time with the tide and swell putting on an awesome show.

Lake King William - Morning Mist

This shot reminds me of great times. We arrived late in a small town called Derwent Bridge in central Tasmania. We were looking for a campsite but there was nothing suitable. We grabbed the 'free' camps book and found this place by the side of Lake King William only 5 mins away and absolutely free. Had a good night around a campfire making new friends. This was the view when we got up in the morning. Mist rising from the water.
