LAKE BONNEY, BARMERA RIVERLAND, SA.

The stark beauty of Lake Bonney as fingers of wood, natural sculptures, reach for the sky.

BLUE MOUNTAINS, SYLVIA FALLS, NSW.
DK Photography
The gentle cascades of Sylvia Falls is a natural attraction and a highlight among many in the ‘Valley of the Falls’.

GIBSON’S STEPS, GREAT OCEAN ROAD, VICTORIA.
Oat Vaiyaboon
Maybe once or twice a year, the earth gets entirely saturated in a rain event, and a waterfall will suddenly appear off the edge of the cliff at Gibson's Steps.

BEEKEEPERS COTTAGE, ALONG HAMILTON-PORT FAIRY ROAD, VICTORIA.
Oat Vaiyaboon
Early morning in a nondescript section of the Hamilton-Port Fairy Road, this long abandoned cottage is named after the vocation of the original owners.

Camel Rock, NSW

500 million year old Cambrian Age Camel Rock, a kingdom rising out of the misty ocean.

MT BUFFALO, VICTORIA.
Oat Vaiyaboon
After trekking through knee deep snow, it was nearing 4PM in the afternoon, when the light changed and we saw the world through rose coloured glasses. The colour was extraordinary.

BLUE MOUNTAINS SUNSET, NSW
Adam Dyson
I would say that this image is perhaps my luckiest. On this particular day I’d walked about 15km around the breathtaking Blue Mountains. After shooting a handful of waterfalls I finished up looking over this anonymous waterfall (no name). I set my camera to timer mode, taking an image every second and walked back for a ‘behind the scenes’ shot. When I looked back, this thoughtful cockatoo had landed to perfectly complete this very Australian landscape composition.

MILKY WAY AND AURORA AUSTRALIS, GIBSON STEPS LOOKOUT, GREAT OCEAN ROAD, VICTORIA.
Adam Dyson
I had always dreamt of a day when the Milky Way and the Southern lights ‘Aurora Australis’ would agree to treat me to something special. It’s a once a year event if that. This is what a real dream looks like.

“PISCES STAR”, CARPENTER ROCKS, SA.
Nathan Godwin
The Pisces Star shipwreck is a isolated place on the South Australian coastline. A short drive from Mount Gambier, this spot has slowly become more popular with photographers. With the right sunset, you can capture something special.

STRAHAN, TASMANIA.
Jamie Mackrill
Step back in time, on the West Coast Wilderness Railway.

HERDSMAN LAKE REGIONAL PARK, PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA.
Vicki White
Herdsman Lake is part of a nature reserve that offers a satisfying 8KM loop walk, not far from the Perth CBD.
