Nice Martin! I got a very similar shot to that. It's currently my desktop Picture! One of my favourite Pics I've taken!

Would have been a good one for "where am I"
Nothing to see here.

Bit of self publicity here, you have been warned. It's just that I thought you good people might be interested to know there's an article on Tasmanian waterfalls in the latest issue of "On the Road" that I'm sure several members here might want to have a look at.
Cheers all, Ian

Congratulations Tasadam. It's a beautiful picture with that soft flowing water and the pandanis. A well earned win.

Yet another good one Adam, congratulations :). Pandanis always remind me of people :?. You can see a family of four five of them in your photo, with one leaning out across the creek to get a better look at you (no I haven't had a drink yet this evening, but I will later :) ). Excellent work by all other entrants too. Special mention to jose for the L Meston photo. I camped at that spot Dec/Jan, it's a magic location :).
