The First Snow (view largre) by Michael Walters
Well been away from RB for a week but will catch up with all the work I’ve missed from you all. I took this shot last night and got frost nip in the process, so my finger tips all felt like they had been smashed with a hammer, can still feel it a bit today, I’ve already been told off for not wearing gloves ;-) / It was really beautiful and worth a little pain. Taken on Mt Wellington facing west to distant mountain ranges.

The Hump panorama by Travis Easton
I found this little tree on one of those perfect blue sky alpine days that seem to go on forever. I spent the morning wandering around looking for pictures in this amazing place and came across this little dead tree on the edge of a small cliff. I walked around looking for a pleasing composition and eventually found myself lying in the snow near the edge looking through the lens until this composition finally revealed itself. On the far side of the hump is a small down hill ski resort with 6 lifts. Until last year it was a popular beginner resort but with global warming affecting snow falls this slightly lower resort has found snow falls so unreliable that it has been forced to close. In my opinion Mt Buffalo is the most beautiful alpine area on mainland Australia, a must see. For more pictures from this area check out my Mt Buffalo gallery.

emergent pandanus, Tarn Shelf, Tasmania by David Bluhdorn
The long, tapered leaves of Richea pandanifolia flick free from the snow drift covering the plant. As the wind gets up, more leaves will emerge until the tip of the plant is free of snow …until it snows again.

The limited opportunities to take photos of Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain when the conditions are such as this should not be missed! This is another example of an almost perfect day.

Torpedo Rock by Jared Revell
Mt Buffalo holds many amazing views. One is the unbelievable ‘torpedo’ shaped rock which just sits miraculously on another. After fires have been through this region, the rock just looks amazing in the winter with the stark trees overhead and new growth below, with the ground covered in snow contrasting against a vibrant blue sky.
