Unlike most of us, Leanne Cole takes photos, then spends time processing them artistically. Many of them look like post cards or magazine covers to me. I hope you enjoy them as well.

Mount Sterling and Craig’s Hut are not places I visited, but this post gives you an idea of Australia countryside and the flowers you might find. The summer flowers while I’ve been in Australia will impress you with their bright colors. Leanne adds a bit of artistry to her flower photos. Many of her posts tell you how to accomplish the same effects with your photos.

Camping and catching up

It has been a very busy couple of weeks. So much happening and many days I have no idea where to start.

Camping

Well, that was something very new, I have to say. I had to get a tent, a mattress and not much else, which was good. A friend and I decided that for some places we really need to be able to camp. We got our gear together and planned our first trip.

That first trip was to Mount Sterling and Craig’s Hut. It is a very famous hut that sits on top of the mountain. It was made for the movie The Man from Snowy River in the 1980’s. It has been built to look like the huts that many of the cattlemen and horsemen used for shelter when they were allowed to graze their animals up there.

It was quite incredible. You can see across the top of the mountains. It was quite hazy but okay for photos. The area around the hut was cleared so you could see it. There were also places for picnics and toilets, always good. It was a hard place to get to and you really need a AWD or 4WD to get up the road. It was an experience.
