Bush fires suck, mostly.

When I first came to this spot, it was nothing but lowland shrub bush, no paths just the sound of the crashing of the waves on the cliffs to guide you and the ever waiting facing eating spiders….. no spiders on this day, either they have clued up to the fact i’m gonna whack them, or they have been all blown off the face of the earth by the gale force winds.. or all cooked by the fires of 12+ months ago…

either way, whilst they form a very important function in our ecosystem, like mozzies, ticks and flies… i would not miss them

Terrace Falls walk – I have been here a few times over the years, but this time

Terrace Falls walk – I have been here a few times over the years, but this time went a different way (for me anyways), i went down Valley road and walked upstream to Terrace falls, lots of nice little spots like Beford Pool and other unnamed little rivulets and cascades.
This one is a more of a familiar place to many, its a very photogenic little falls that has, until recently had a big tree in it, some big floods sorted that out and moved it downstream a bit, leaving a nice clear ‘ Salote Falls’
3 shot panorama, taken with the 24-70mm and #kasefilters #magneticcpl f10 @ 10sec.
The really cool thing about the magnetic circular filters by #kasefilters is that you can have multiple adapter rings, one for each lens which means swapping lens and consequently swapping the CPL between the lens is a breeze. (you could have multiple CPL filters.. but hey, we are not all made of money 🙂
I have heard some comments about the filters falling off, however i think your gonna have to drop you camera for them to fall off, in which you have bigger fish to fry than a CPL filter coming off 🙂  I often just lug my camera and tripod around without the lens cap, so far i have had no issues with the filter coming off..

I liked this place so much i came back with the crazy kids.

Its a great spot for kids, I was fully expecting to only spend 15 minutes here, but rather spent over an hour, exploring the creek downstream, skipping rocks, building castles, filling gumboots with water, the list goes on, I even got to take a few photos

The walk from Gordon falls carpark is only 0.5km, its pretty well all stairs but a good match for a 3 year old – chaos spent half the time telling us to hurry the up and that we were as slow AF

No leeches, no ticks, no mozzies, perfect
