G'day all,

After NACAA last week we spent 4 nights at Thredbo, 3 days hiking. Hopefully I'll get a series of shots up here over time, but only two right now...

Great shots!

Certainly is another beautiful part of the country. Seeing these trees in the snow is a treat as well, their rich colour contrasted against the white snow.

the first one is awesome.

I agree, the first pic is gorgeous - snow gums have such a graceful beauty. Thredbo and surrounding area is beautiful.

Beautiful pics. The snow gums are fabulous, bright reds and yellows are a real feature. The snowies are a gem for panoramas both above and below the treeline. Your's is a fabulous example, so much wide open space and long horizons. Good job.

Thanks for your replies everyone, and for looking and sharing your memories of the area.

I like 'em Roger! Are you going to have a go at them during a golden hour sunrise or sunset?

Back home in Perth now, so unable to

While there it didn't work out being out at those times unfortunately - cloud, rain, unwell wife, etc

I was hoping to do some startrails while in the snowies, but didn't work out - no stars!

no no .. just a cold

.. in recent times we've had this annoying habit of whenever we travel one of us gets sick. She was the unlucky one this time.

Both wonderful, but the first is fantastic. What a great tree.
