Leather Kelp - Leonard Point

Leather Kelp - Leonard Point

I found this remarkable sight within half an hour of my arrival at Wilsons Promontory from Melbourne on a hot summers day at the Southern end of this popular beach. It never ceases to amaze me how nature can place such amazing elements together. This spot must be passed by thousands of people every year but I dare say that few have ever stopped at this particular spot to soak up the vista . For me this illustrates one of the things I really love about being a nature photographer. The mindset required to see the extraordinary within the common place, quite literally changes the way you interact with your surroundings. It requires you to really be in tune with a place and in a more tangible way, to become a part of the landscape, rather than a mere passer by.
