Regrowth after Bushfires in Australian Snowy Mountains
-
My first attempt at a HDR image. Not a true one in the sense that i took multiple exposure shots… i made different exposure shots with my RAW converter…then put together with photomatrix… Was good fun! Not sure it is right but i think it looks ok???

Mt. St. Helens, downside from the blast shows the new life after the forest is gone.

Those that know me well know that i was shattered when Craig’s hut burnt down in the 2006/2007 bush fires. I have loved “The Man from Snowy River” since i was a little girl and it had always been a dream of mine to one day see Craig’s hut in the flesh… then it was ravished by fire last year… well they have rebuilt it and thatks to our wonderful friend whom we stay with in Bonnie Doon, he took me and my family up there, knowing how much it would mean to me… / I will be returning here as i have fallen in love with the High country!

Another view of Craig’s Hut on Mt Stirling.

The Grass tree (Xanthorrhoea australis) like many Australian plants needs fire to propagate effectively. Under normal conditions it is rare for the flower to form, after fire however it is a different story with every grasstree in sight sporting an amazing ‘kangaroo tail’ from its mop. I found this bunch on the lower slopes of Mt Oberon at Wilsons Promontory a few months after the 2005 bushfires. For more shots from this area check out my Wilsons Promontory gallery. 10% of all profits go to the Wilderness Society

While driving around the tracks of Mount Hotham with Jared and the family I was saddened to see the same scene I had witnessed this time last year – dead Ghost Gums for as far as the eye can see. Ravaged by wildfires some years ago, these trees do not regenerate by growing new leaves and branches like most gums, instead they must begin a slow process of regrowth from the roots deep below the parched soil. Thankfully, that regrowth has been allowed to continue and it appears to be 30cm or so more than last year. How fragile our environment is!

Soon after the fires at Halls Gap VIC I was walking up the trail, it was so cold that I could see the mist ahead of me hiding the blacken trees and the green vines growing around them. This photo was as I took it at the time, no touch ups made. Just nature doing her thing.

The Victorian High Country has many ridge line ribbon tracks to be enjoyed by 4wd. / This track is Blue Rag Track and rides the ridge line of the Blue Rag Range. One of the most spectacular tracks with outstanding views in the Victorian High Country, this track should only be driven by experienced 4wd’s with low range gears.

A few months earlier fire had raveged the hilly bushland, now with the first green of regrowth showing, a cloudy cold front has swept in from the south/west showing the two opposites of Australian weather in the one picture.

Those that know me well know that i was shattered when Craig’s hut burnt down in the 2006/2007 bush fires. I have loved “The Man from Snowy River” since i was a little girl and it had always been a dream of mine to one day see Craig’s hut in the flesh… then it was ravished by fire last year… well they have rebuilt it and thanks to our wonderful friend whom we stay with in Bonnie Doon, he took me and my family up there, knowing how much it would mean to me… I apologise now as i have about 70 odd photos from here and i am sure that a good number will end up on the Bub! This really was a dream come true, silly to some maybe, but for me a special moment i will never forget. I will be returning very soon as I have fallen in love with it up there…

Someone asked if I had landscape of this shot. Here it is. Fantastic place to visit.

This is one of the spurs that travels up throught the high country on Mt Stirling, this track runs between Hut No#3, Refuge Hut and Razorback Hut (or known to the locals as Purcell’s Hut) It was devastating to see that these beautiful snow gums have not recovered from the 2006/2007 bushfires. It was still a beautiful spot to see and it was a childhood dream of mine to be up there in amongst these beauties, so i was in awe! (I am addicted to the high country to… i shall be returning VERY soon) Thi image is the first of may to come!

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Moonscape – Queenstown Queenstown, Tasmania, Australia. You could be forgiven for thinking that you had stepped onto another planet when you first come across Queenstown, located 260km west of Hobart. The barren, bald hills are the result of the copper mining that was done here over 73 years. The sulphurous residue from the Mount Lyell Copper Mine stripped the earth of everything living and left a grey and brown sludge over the surrounding hills and plains. / Owing to a combination of tree removal for use in the smelters, the smelter fumes (for about 40 years), and the heavy annual rainfall, the erosion of the shallow horizon topsoil back to the harder rock profile contributed to the stark state of the mountains for many decades. / Typical of the successions that occur in fire affected areas in Western Tasmania, the low shrubbery that has revegetated adjacent to hillside creeks is a very early stage of a long recovery for the ecology of the region. / Some concern by local residents in the 1980s, and since, that the low-level succession of plants might affect the stark ‘moonscape’ appearance of the southern parts of Mount Lyell, and northern Mount Owen. Although there are still large areas incapable of sustaining regrowth due to the acute slopes and lack of soil formation, the rate of vegetation recovery will render the mythologies arising from the appearance as only partial truths in time.

This Started life as a set of scribbles in Texta/marker trying to capture the feeling of a cracked rock. Pulled into Photoshop for some work and somehow it has metamorphosed into an image of trees after a bushfire and after the rain… when a tinge of greenness is just starting to show hope for the future.

Australian Bush after fire in Jarvis bay. The area was completely wiped out by fire a month before. In amongst the char this lone Australian icon stood. An amazing sight.
