Mouth of the Powlett River - Sth Gippsland - NO DESAL PLANT !
The day comes to a closure with one last encore performance from mother nature over this special place – The Mouth of the Powlett River.
see more photographic works from this beautiful coast
NO DESAL on the Bass Coast
This scene is within 500m of the proposed location for the state Labor government’s desalination plant to supply Melbourne with more water…At what environmental cost? the local land and marine environments… plus the enormously ineffective energy consumption to fuel the process, added marine salinity to our beloved coast which sees Southern Right Whales migrate, penguins,seals,sharks and all their friends and foes…
There is yet to even have been an envirnmental effects statement done – demand one tomorrow (Wed 31st Oct) @ noon on parliament steps in Melbourne !

I have fond childhood memories of summer camping just to the right of the big sand dune in the frame with Bass Strait’s pumping surf roaring all day and night a mere 50m behind it,plentiful fishing with my late father in the river and surf…...ahh…..bliss

This is a very beautiful image of a very special place to me too. I spent hours upon hours just exploring all the wonders this place has to offer. The moss covered rocks beyond the mouth provided hours of macro shots as the tide was out. There had just been heavy rain and the fresh water greeting the salty created amazing amounts of fantastic thick sea foam. The sand dunes were amazing and provided an ideal vantage point to watch horse and riders galloping along the beach.
I can see why you have such wonderful memories and a place in your heart for this place. You have my support!
