Pristine wilderness, a photo from Victoria, East

Photographer's Note

The Toorongo river below the Amphitheatre Falls

To the east of Noojee is the scenic Toorongo Falls Road which follows the bubbling river along its journey through a picturesque valley until it reaches the Toorongo Falls Reserve. At the car park is a 750 metre walking track through the tall lush wet sclerophyll forest to the Toorongo Falls. Continue along the loop walk to the nearby Amphitheatre Falls.

Hello Peter - A very attractive natural intimate landscape shot. Gorgeous moss-covered rock and rushing water under attractive light. There are a few areas of overexposed highlights on the water but I imagine the light gave high contrast and was quite tricky. Warm regards rosemary

Hi Peter.
I think you might have a new camera - I seem to remember you had a Pentax like me. Anyway, this one has done a good job of this beautiful scene in a place not far away but which I've never been to. No, never been to Noojee. You found a really good vantage point to include those lovely mossy rocks, and they look sharp. You might have been trying with the slowish exposure to get a certain effect with the water, but it's led to a slight over-exposure in the sunlit part. Difficult one, though, as there's a lot of shadow too. Nice shot, good note.
Regards,
Andrew
