A mate of mine thought this photo looked dramatic & pushed me to upload it.

I like it but maybe it’s a little too dark.

This is the famous Sylvia Falls in the Blue Mountains National Park in NSW, Australia.

Photographed with a Canon 400D.

Country born & bred but now located in Sydney, Australia.

I’m fascinated by the beauty of nature & in particular Australian native flowers & landscapes. I also love colour & anything unusual.
The Blue Mountains are my favourite spot at the moment.
