As advertised elsewhere on this forum (I think!), I went up to Mt Field yesterday to take some pictures of waterfalls for possible inclusion in a calendar I thought I was going to do. As it stands, all photos of said waterfalls were a complete write-off due to higher-than-normal flows in the creeks from the overnight rain resulting to way too much mist that liked to "fog up" the lens.
What I did get though was this panorama of Mt Field West with a healthy coat of snow. A larger version may be found at http://www.benshortphotography.com/2009/09/mt-field-snowfields/
As with most of my trip related stories - I learnt 3 things:
1) I am missing my wireless remote shutter trigger. Trip to Stallards tomorrow.
2) Sometimes all the camera gear in the world will not beat an 8 year old point & shoot camera. A friend easily got the best shots of the day on my old Powershot G3.
3) PWS need to run a grader over the first few kms of Lake Dobson Rd. I enjoyed the slippery ruts, the corrugations not so much.
