I’ve always maintained that trying to capture the colour and how immense the mountains are in Tasmania’s south west is ridiculously challenging. No photo could possibly do duty to the unique colours and textures and size of the peaks. This photo taken on a recent trip to Lake Pedder however is my new favourite of the Sentinel Range, taken near the old Lake Pedder track.

Captured in the mid afternoon, the weather ensured the sun was not bright enough to cause the deep contrasts I have normally experienced at this location, and at the same time the weather was good enough for the peaks not to be covered in rain clouds.

The first temple that I photographed while in Taiwan. I found it fascinating that this temple is very much stuffed into a gap between many high-rise apartments. You wouldnt even know it was there without looking for it.

The harbour itself is huge and just not possible to fit in one photo. Taken some 70 floors up in the Sky Tower, said to be the second tallest building in Taiwan.

A Wind Farm in Taichung. I think to the annoyance of the friends we were visiting I insisted that we stay so I could capture the photo of the sun setting over the horizon.

One of the many temples in Kaohsiung, located at the Lotus Lake. The Lotus Lake is looking to become a major tourist and cultural hub in the area, with a lot of work occurring to build new temples.
Like with a number of temples I saw while visiting, street market stands selling tourist good and food pop up in the forecourt.
