Most photographs are presented geographically, for those who love a sense of place. Others are grouped in portfolios of favourite themes. Images may appear in more than one gallery or portfolio.
A million hectares of World Heritage wild country, and an intricate, resistant landscape of enormous diversity.

On a family road trip to Far North Queensland via the inland, we visited numerous and richly diverse conservation areas, from the desert to the Wet Tropics. We didn't spend much time in any one place, but quick visits yielded some pleasing images.

Mount Royal National Park lies on the southern fall of the 1600-metre-high Barrington Plateau. Most of the park is wilderness and some is within the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area. With relief of over 1000 metres, high rainfall and fertile, basalt-derived soils, the area supports a rich and spectacular assemblage of forests: subtropical, temperate and cool temperate rainforests and tall eucalypts. Over a wet-at-times, four-day bushwalk in spring we found richly flowering orchids and forest shrubs, as well as coppery new growth on Antarctic Beech trees. Red Cedars and Giant Stinging Trees were also common, the latter rather nerve-racking.
