Amidst the great forests of East Gippsland this remote pocket is one of countless areas under threat from logging. This spot is maidst trackless rainforest high in the ranges in truely isolated country and to say that it took some getting to would be an understatement ! but the feeling of being somewhere so untouched and where little to few people have probably ever been is something that I will cheerish forever ! / EOS A2, Fuji Velvia 50. / ©T.Middleton2008 —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—— / / / see more of my enivonments under threat related photography by clicking below / /

Life can be pretty black and white sometimes…... This was shot many years ago in the grimy inner city suburb of Newtown while waiting for a train at St Peters Station…... the inner city can be a fairly fraught place to be in sometimes so CityRail kindly placed a lovely billboard of a rainforest ajacent to the platform to sooth the harried traveller…... it advertises nothing but a little bit of wishful thinking and dream beliving…..... and I’m all for that….....:)

This is a print, originally a collagraph, made with foam board, paper cut - / outs…and glue…all put on the board and then shallaced. However after a complete day in the print room all I had left to show was 5 OK prints. (In A1 Size) / The foam board was too soft to print what I wanted. So, there is never a dull print I say…I re-inked the board with Graphic Block Ink and rolled it up with a huge roller in the colour black. Than I placed the board onto the press with the previous prints. So now I have a collagraph/relief print.... the result…was….five amazing prints…that once framed up and under glass are going to look mmmmmmm superb..! If I do say so myself! Yipea! Love that print room….Billy 1836 Views as of 24/11/09

A Strangler Fig on The Scenic Rim of Queensland’s Gold Coast The Strangler Fig is a tall canopy, widely buttressed tree which grows to 45m in height. The top of this tree spreads like an umbrella. It features light coloured bark. In the rainforest the strangler fig germinates only in the branches of a host tree from the seed deposited by birds. Many roots are sent down and they gradually envelope and strangle the host tree leaving the fig in its place. There are five species of strangler fig represented in the Park. / Leaves:Leaves are simple, large, glossy green above and paler below. Commonly betwwen 4 and 7cm in length. / Flowers: The flowers are on the inside of the fruit and are pollinated by a wasp which enters the fruit through a small hole before the fleshy part of the fruit develops. / Fruit: Fruit is large (about 3cm with a nipple on the end) decorative and tasty which means that it is relished by birds. The fig is dark purple when ripe with yellowish dots, fleshy and ovular. They are a most important food tree for birds References / Hauser, J.

Not all swans may be what they first seem – some may shed their feathery coats at night and reveal themselves to be beautiful female Fays. If these coats are stolen, then the maidens will become trapped in humanoid form. If the thief is a human male, he may then take the maiden as a (possibly unwilling) bride. Should this occur, it raises the possibility that when the man least expects it a whole flight of swans will come to liberate their sister and her swanskin. Despite their usual serene demeanour, swans should not be underestimated, for should they become displeased they can prove themselves to be considerably powerful and aggressive creatures. Therefore any brigand and boor meddling in the life of a Swan Maiden could very likely come to sorely regret his actions. Other Swan Maidens though may be trapped in avian form as a result of a curse bestowed upon them. In Celtic myth it was customary for someone to embark upon and complete a series of heroic tasks on behalf of the Swan Maidens (and occasionally Swan Men), in order that their human form may again be resumed. The Celtic Goddess / Saint Bridget was also worshipped in some localities as being a Swan-Goddess. – quoted from here Taken at Royal National Park just south of Sydney.

Amongst the most southern warm temperate rainforest in the world this giant old Kanuka tree majestically reaches out a hand of freedom towards me. Gesturing for me to find a way across the flooded creek to marvel further at his brilliant form and textures.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery The Magic of the Forest Floor Goblin Forest Walk, The Blue Tier, North East Highlands National Park, Tasmania, Australia. As Is – Straight from the Camera The_Blue_Tier The Blue Tier has been the home to thousands of people who have lived, worked and died on the mountain. Tin was the reason the early pioneers came here. The tin lay in heaps behind rocks and in the creek and river beds. All the miners had to do was bag the ore up. / In their search for the tin-bearing rock, these early pioneers burnt most of the temperate rainforest which existed above the 600 metre level. When the mines were finished, the farmers over-grazed the grass areas which followed the burning, eventually the mosses took over. / Since the last grazing, around 1970, the mountain and its native animals have been successful in aiding the regeneration of the temperate rainforest. What you see today is the continuing struggle of the rainforest trying to return. / To appreciate the extent of the regeneration it is necessary to visit the various areas by following the well-defined walking tracks on the mountain. There are bogs, grassland, pure rainforest, regenerated rainforest, tea-tree swamps and areas dominated by celery top pine. Canon PowerShot A650 IS Shutter Speed: 1/60sec / Aperture: F4.8 / ISO: 320
