Mt Speculation and the Cosscut Saw

Spent three days photographing 22nd to 24th April 2011 on Mt speculation and the Crosscut Saw. Here are a selection of the images.

Mt Erica

On 23rd and 24th of July we drove to Mt Erica in Baw Baw National Park to photograph with 3 friends. This area has some of the most spectacular snow gums in Victoria which is a must during the winter months.

Lake Mountain

Spent a Day photographing at lake Mountain during July. I was interested to see the contrast between the Blackened trees and the fresh blanket of snow. Here are the results.

Mount McLeod

Spent three days photographing at Mt buffalo we walked out to Mt Mcleod. The road out to the reservoir was badly effected by the recent rains so we walked a extra three km to the turn off. There was still quite a large amount of deep snow covering the track which made the walk difficult in places. The northern plateau of Buffalo is well worth the walk with spectacular views into the valleys. Here are the images plus a video.

Waubra Wind Farm

Over the past two years i have been photographing something a little different. I started this project in September 2008 during instillation of the Waubra Wind Farm. The Waubra Wind Farm Project is located in Waubra, approximately 35kms North West of Ballarat in Victoria, Australia and is the largest renewable power project in the Southern Hemisphere. The Waubra Wind Farm comprises 128 wind turbines. For me this folio was the opposite of what I have traditional photographed which is nature’s impact on the landscape and pristine Wilderness. My aim with this folio was not only to show the influence the turbines have had on the landscape but also to show how the farming community have accepted them into their working lives.
