West Head Lookout

This was my next stop after leaving Bradys Lookout on the Tamar River. I was much calmer after taking the shots of the Tamar but I was behind schedule. I had planned a drive to different locations to coincide with the sun. Due the the fact I was already 2 hours behind I changed my plans and only managed to hit two other places. This is the second of the three spots.

I drove down the west side of the Tamar and arrived at Greens Beach. From here I took Gardners Road out to the West Head lookout. It's in a national park so permits do apply. The lookout looks over Anderson Bay towards Badgers Head.

I can tell you it was blowing!! The trees aren't leaning inland for there health. :) A couple of times I found it hard to keep my eyes open while taking photos. I had to take my hat off or it would be lodged in a sand dune by now.

At this point I had almost forgotten I'd been at work earlier in the day. It was a very nice feeling!

Poppies Aplenty

Shaded from the Midday Sun

I saw this scene while I was driving out the back of Evandale. I had hoped to get more shots of the sheep relaxing in the shade but they didn't like my presence. I only got two shots off before they all made a bolt away from me.

I really don't know what their problem was? I was at least 50 metres away from them and had a fence between us. Oh well.... Enjoy!

Getting Warmer

It's starting to warm up here in Tasmania! Yesterday it got to 29 degrees Celsius (approx 84 degrees Fahrenheit) and today it made it above 31 (approx 88). I can't imagine how hot it will be when summer actually gets here.

I haven't been out to take any photos of late but I'm looking forward to getting out this weekend. I have a trip planned to the Mt Field National Park, located in the south of Tasmania. The picturesque Russell Falls are located in the park as well as the Horseshoe Falls and Lady Barron Falls. Hopefully I can get some good shots while I'm there.
