Up to the Victorian High Plains on the weekend. Did a 33km bushwalk over two days. Thought I could share this sunrise with you all.

Nice use of the foreground, getting the wild flowers in the shot looks great.

The only problem I see is that to take the photo myself I have to walk 33 kilometres. Did you get any roadside pics? :lol:

Any more pics? I really like the high country!
2x D700, 2x D2h, lenses, speedlights, studio, pelican cases, tripods, monopods, patridges, pear trees etc etc

E1Shane you appear to have a good talent of capturing and finding suject matter. A lot of interesting things going on in this capture, the forground, background, light breaking through the clouds and some soft pastel type colors in one are.

Good work

E1Shane beautifully taken image ditto as above comments. That spray of light from the clouds onto the hillside really hits the note. :) Only 33 km! :wink: I hope your camera backpack was appropriately weighted. :shock:

Thank you to all for your comments, I feel a bit strange here not having a Nikon but you all seem pretty cool. For those that wished to see some more ( for better or worst) you could drop by here http://australianbushwalking.fotopic.net/ and click on the Mt Feathertop link.

There are a myriad of colours here and the light shining in the midde of the pic adds so much more. Awesome shot in one of the best places in this land.

great shot, the mix of colours is very special.

I went to your photo site, you have some great photos on there (Marysville and the Overland track collections are beautiful). Looking forward to some of your other walks and photos.

Thanks,
