Wilderness photography.
Tasmania, Australia, is a photographers dream.
Wilderness, huge vistas, interesting elements and unspoilt scenery.
Taking a good picture is not hard but getting a fantastic photograph takes talent, time, effort and perseverance.
In this post, we invited Tasadam to share some of his spectacular wilderness photographs that focus on winter in Tasmania. Winter has just arrived in Australia and these shots are part of Tasadam’s beautiful portfolio . In the future, as the seasons change, more of Tasadam’s work will be featured here.

The River Runs Free has all this and more!
Sue has been immersed in a new book this weekend. Totally immersed. She read it from cover to cover in under 24 hrs.

The book, by Geoff Law, is The River Runs Free and it is published by Penguin.
‘Law is one of Australia’s great outdoor adventurers, authors and advocates.’ – Bob Brown
Sue was so impressed …
Paying to hike? Michelle from Love in a Tent and the author of Sex in a Tent , posted about the Routeburn Track in New Zealand and suggests the costs are a bit steep!
Michelle is on a six week holiday, hiking some of the best tracks in New Zealand. In the last few days she posted a great story about her tramp on the Routeburn and Greenstone Tracks. Have a look at Michelle’s post, she is a very good writer and her yarn about the walk makes great reading.

Have to tick off another peak, forgetting to enjoy the view?
In this guest post, Grant, our mate we met with Paul at Wild Dog Creek, in the Walls of Jerusalum, agreed to post about his “philosophy” of bushwalking.
Many thanks to Grant, our Wild Dog Minister, for taking the time to craft these words. We hope he got as much out of it as we did.
Bushwalking has, for at least as long as I’ve been in Tasmania, been part of my spiritual journey. The solitude of solo walking, the wilderness, the potential life-threatening situations, the memories and reflections that come to mind while walking, …
