Tasmania has lots of mining areas – and the colourful hills (especially sun gilded) of the west coast township of Queenstown certainly draws tourists to view the amazing landscape – ever-changing with time of day and sunlight. angles
Towering dolorite cliffs at Cape Raoul, Tasman Peninsula, Tasmania. (A person is standing at the top of the cliff — upper right: this gives some idea of the scale. There are also seals on the rocks bottom left, but these are difficult to discern. Their strange cries filled the air.) Nikon D70

Macquarie Harbour is at Strahan on the western side of Tasmania. The harbour holds 3 x the amount of water in Sydney Harbour, so it is big. To get to Sarah Island, you can take a day cruise with one of two of the tour companies that operate out of Strahan. Both are very good. This Island, Sarah Island is about 14 hectares and contains the remains of a few buildings that were used when Sarah Island was a penal colony. This was a second offence settlement, like Port Arthur. When you walk around this island and hear the stories from the guide, it is hard to believe the harsh lives the convicts lived whilst here. Looking at this image now, its the picture of serenity with lovely, reflective calm waters. It can also be rainy and bitterly cold here; a difficult place for a convict.
Strahan Tasmania lies on the edge of the unspoiled beauty of Macquarie Harbour. It claims to be the last outpost of civilization on the West Coast of Tasmania. Our ship left Macquarie Harbour and headed for the magnificent Gordon River. It was a memorable cruise with amazing scenery and fantastic food! Olympus SP-550UZ
This beautiful old building is near Stanley on Tasmania’s north west coast. Shot as a single JPEG then copied 4 times, processed through Photomatix Pro to create this HDR and finally finished off in Photoshop to darken the sky and give the image this dramatic end result.
Captured at Bell’s Parade, Latrobe, Tasmania…I truly think this image speaks for itself. / Carol

Another test shot of high ISO capabilities. / And I still can’t get a decent focus!! But it is done ad hoc on the fly without any planning so I will allow myself a little leeway. / I did get some sensor burn that I have cropped out but I did use a different lens this time. More testing coming. / Still out of focus, still has noise but I did a test print and the quality at A4 was acceptable.

I love photos of doors – particularly those of old churches – and could not resist these on a recent trip to the North of our State. Taken at a church on Elizabeth Street in Launceston Tasmania. / /

This is the view from a hill overlooking Trial Harbour. The beach is called Ocean beach and runs for approximately 36 kms. This was the clearest I have seen this view, usually it is covered with spray or rain. Taken with a Panasonic FZ-18 For more beautiful images of Tasmania please visit RT Gallery
Taken at a bend in the Stitt River. To me it looks like a giant’s slingshot, which has been discarded. Taken with a Panasonic FZ-18 For more beautiful images of Tasmania please visit RT Gallery
