Dusk - Freshwater Lake by Travis Easton
At the southern end of Five Mile Beach in the Northern Wilderness area of Wilsons Promontory is a seldom visited gem called Freshwater Lake. The Lake is formed at the bottom end of a huge swamp created from the runoff of the Roundback and Vereker Ranges. To get here I had just spent seven hours traversing around the rocky coastal fringe of the Cathedral. I was exhausted and so focused on cooking my dinner at the time that I almost missed this sight. Fortunately I did look behind me and was staggered at the colour of the sky which, minutes before, had been so grey and bland. Immediately I envisioned catching the sky in the still lake which was close by. Upon reaching the lake so taken aback was I from the reflection and the perfect touch of ducks sitting in the middle of it that I audibly sighed disturbing the ducks and ruining the reflection. Fortunately the water stilled again before the light was gone but alas no ducks. For more shots from this area check out my Wilsons Promontory gallery.

Sea mist in Sealers Cove, Wilsons Promontory NP by shep34
Sea mist drifting into Sealers Cove. Whilst resting in the shade after hiking to Sealers Cove, we watched huge amounts of mist floating into the cove, gently floating across the water, and across the nearby hills. A great sight to see!

The sun goes down, and so does she. by Paulaa
After taking this photo and watching the sun go down I wrote this: / / Wilsons Promontory Not a worry in the world, it was so peaceful, so quiet and so beautiful. There wasn’t a single word to describe this place. I sat on the top of the sand dunes, sifting the sand through the tips of my fingers, it wasn’t just ordinary sand, it was soft like powder; and white like it had never been touched. I felt at peace, there was nothing that could ruin this feeling. I looked out to the horizon; to the left was a headland, with no form of civilization on it and then a bit to the right laid two small islands. In between the headland and the first island was the sun, it beamed at me with so much power, it made my eyes squint and water, but after a minute of staring at it, my eyes soon adjusted. It felt like nothing else mattered, it was just me and the sun. I looked around the bay, and I couldn’t think of one thing wrong with this place, there were no houses, no signs of civilization. I jumped down from the sand dunes and walked towards the water, I kept walking through the water, following the reflection of the sun against the waves and water. I stopped when I was knee deep and felt my feet sink into the sand as the backwash drew back towards the sea. I looked up at the horizon and the sun was half gone, the glow from it spread across the sky and made the clouds turn to all sorts of bright colours. I turned back around and faced the beach, I looked up and saw steep rocky mountains, full of green shrubs and trees, and I continued to turn; to take it all in, for the sun had only about a minute before it would disappear. I soon turned to face the sun again, and it was three quarters gone. Those islands were now dark silhouettes in the distance. I stared at the horizon, thinking about life, and so many other things. I smiled. The sun soon came to an end, the last bit of it vanished within a few seconds, and in those few seconds i witnessed the sky turn from light to dark. I didn’t want to leave; i wanted to stay there forever.

Painted sunrise by Arek Rainczuk
Yet another photograph I took last weekend in Walkerville. Amazing sunrise over the hills of Wilsons Promontory, especially when first rays skimmed across the surface of the water, higlighting only the highest points on its way, only to sparkle on the wet rocky beach… Canon EOS 450D Ef-S 55-250mm / Tv 3.2sec / Av f/22 / ISO 100 Converted form RAW

Tidal River Footbridge, Wilsons Promontory NP by shep34
On a rain soaked morning, the only ones braving the elements were the seagull in the shallows of the river, and yours truly. An overnight rain storm had saturated everything, and drizzle was still falling. In the distance, clouds were shooting through the valley.

The Couple. -Gang Gang Cockatoos by renee Murden
Went for a walk to Squeaky beach at Wilson’s Prom and heard a lot of noise and small parts of trees falling down in front of us. Had a closer look and saw this couple having a meal on a tree which was right over the path. These Gang Gang Cockatoos are quite common down at Wilson’s Prom, you can usually hear them but not very often you can get so close to them.
