Actually it was quite a warm day at Mt Brown - but the wind was one of the strongest I have felt in Tasmania. Like being behind a jet engine.

Thanks guys, and thanks to Eggs and Bluewombat for providing some worthy competition (that Cape Pillar shot reminds me I need to explore the Tasman peninsula further) :). Now that everyone is probably more aware that the Australia/NZ-wide comp. is underway I'm really looking forward to seeing a wide range of entries for February. So don't forget to enter by the 19th! :wink:
