ALONG THE TRAIL…
It's an annual pilgrimage, the Turning of the Fagus, and it brings people from the cities and into the mountains. That was us as the end of May approached, and with it the end of the autumn of 2025.Join us for a walk to view the fagus, to follow a rough trail to a mountain lake and to a cold weather camp by the waters of the Tyenna River.

Walking on kunanyi in the wild weather, with the clouds intermittently washing out the world. Then the world opened up to reveal the small communities below.

HERE ON THE COAST…
Disused boat shed at Dodges Ferry.An adjacent and disused boat shed burned down last year. Boat sheds are found on several local beaches on the shore of the bay. This one is located just past the sandstone headland at the eastern end of Okines Beach.

Spotlight
A young tree sprouts in a sliver of light in the space between boulders. Plants in alpine areas take hold in the unlikeliest of places, yet thrive where they logically should not.
The plant is too young for me to identify. If there is someone who knows, please advise me.
Found on the Panorama Track on kunanyi, near Hobart, Tasmania.

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE TRACK…
Day is almost done we stand where the land meets the water here on Frecinet Peninsula. The sun sinks towards the horizon only to be obscured by a cloud bank, something I should say is not all that uncommon hereabouts.That is the Tasmanian east coast over there across the bay, on the horizon. Somewhere over there is the town of Swansea.
It is now almost half way through the last month of summer and the sun is destined to disappear around 8.30pm. It will be light for some time after that, though. Here in Tasmania at 42°S we have a long summer twilight, the longest day giving us 19 hours and 53 minutes from first to last light.
This is how it is here on the east coast of Australia’s southernmost land mass this late afternoon. The sea calm, the wind mild and gentle, the sun sharing its life-giving warmth, the view wide and uplifting of mind and spirit.#tasmania #frecinetpeninsula #colesbay #seascapes #landscapes #sunsets #hobartandbeyond #photography #landscapephotography

The moment before the sun disappears behind the horizon, the birds continue their search for food.
Only in the height of Summer will you see the sun set so far south.

An epic 24 hours at South East Cape Bay with 4m seas crashing onto Lion Rock all through the day and into the night.
This image sums those seas up perfectly with the setting sun, circling sea birds, crashing waves, towering spray and magic sun beams to top it off.

Witness the full power of the Southern Ocean.
With a 4 metre swell and an incoming tide, standing near Lion Rock I felt increasingly vulnerable, but could not tear my eyes away from this incredible spectacle of nature’s forces.
Both the spray and the late afternoon sun gave the scen a monochromatic look, even though this photograph is in full colour.
South East Cape Bay is at Tasmania’s southern-most point (outside of offshore islands). Getting there is an easy 2 hour walk from Cockle Creek.

Southern Ocean Waves at Lion Rock
A friend and I went down to Lion Rock to experience a predicted 4m swell, amongst other things.
This video (previous post) gives an idea of just how powerful and massive these waves were. This is a photograph of just one of the waves, which the video will never be able to show.

I wasn’t sure whether to show the video or photo first, but the video won out.

What an experience!
I went down to South East Cape Bay with a mate to watch the 4 metre swell roll in. The waves created were almighty in stature and sound. Watching them crash on Lion Rock was awesome!
The real treat came as the sun set behind the waves, with the sea spray creating these incredible shapes, like magnetic fields.
I have tonnes of these images, which will release over the coming weeks.
