Barriers and mist

It was a very wet Easter ‘08 in the Southern NSW Highlands – but all was not in vain! There was a lot of mist and rustic charm about the place. While taking this photo of the entrance to a rural property the owner suddenly materialised out of the mist and spooked the hell out of me. Thankfully he wasn’t carrying a pitchfork and didn’t seem to mind too much!

Barriers and mist belongs to the following groups:

Landscape Photography, Rusty, Crusty and Falling to Bits and Shots in the Fog

Hey Shaddy where were you! I have just spent 2 days down there lurking around in the mist also!!! This is an absolute stunner. YUou could add this to our Rusty Crusty Group! Well done.

KeeeeeRACK!!! (thats the sound of my jaw hitting the keyboard)

Oh sweet jesus on a popstick Shaddy! This is simply effing GORGEOUS!!! YOU and this image are just what I needed to clear my head and refocus my mind. Heartfelt thanks.
Shaddy in reply to Rosalie Dale IPA’s comment, 7 months ago

Hey Rosalie! Geez you were quick off the mark with that comment! I was actually in a little place between Berry and Kangaroo Valley. Rusty and Crusty, hey?! Might just do that, thanks.
So where abouts were you?!
Shaddy in reply to Rhana Griffin’s comment, 7 months ago

Shucks Rhan! Glad to be of help my friend – hope you are still enjoying and looking after my favourite place in the world.

It’s been far too long between drinks for me as well in terms of posting pics on the bubble.

Visited Belmore Falls, Robertson, Fitzroy Falls, Thirlmere in the mist … you MUST go to Belmore Falls – there are at least 3 different views to the falls and they are better than Fitzroy! George Petrovsky and Warren Williams have pics of up them so far.
Shaddy in reply to Rosalie Dale IPA’s comment, 7 months ago

I’ve heard that about Belmore! I’ll have a squiz at George and Warren’s work….

Shaddy in reply to budrfli’s comment, 7 months ago

Hi budrfli – hmmmm….fog group, huh? I might pay them a visit! Thanks for the heads up!
Shaddy in reply to Heather Mitchell’s comment, 7 months ago

Scared the hell out of me Heather! He suddenly emerged from the left of the shot without any warning at all except for a deep and suspicious voice. Can’t blame him really!
Shaddy in reply to Sande Elkins’s comment, 7 months ago

Hey Sande! Thanks so much for looking and commenting!

Elaine van Dyk, 7 months ago

Awesome photo! Great combination of iron, timber, and different coloured lichens against that green grass – plus of course the mist and damp. Composition is lovely – makes me feel that I can walk along the fence and enter the paddock beyond and disappear into the mist.
