Rainforest Gallery (Donna Buang)
While going to the mountains for some snow fun, we stopped over to scratch our legs at the Donna Buang rainforest which is only 85km from Melbourne CBD. You can walk around the track and admire the 65m tall old Mountain Ash trees, ancient Myrtle Beech trees many of which are 300 to 400 years old.
This photo is stitched from 4 images, I was standing on a platform 15m above the ground, and as you can see I still didn't capture the entire tree. (it was raining pretty hard and no way of covering the lens)
Canon 30D - 10-20mm lens
Loving the pictures. How do you get the water flowing effect? Is it slow shutter speed? I have just started out in photography and I am keen to learn. Thanks.
Thank you, yes slow shutter speed and a tripod, I wrote about some time ago: https://steemit.com/tutorial/@tomekkk/dslr-cameras-what-does-that-button-do-pt-i-dial-mode-knob
Definately have to put this beautiful place on our to do list next time we are down that way :)
Warburton area is really pretty, lots of walking / hiking tracks as well as 4x4 :)
Scratch your legs? You were packed in so tightly you couldn't even move? :O
Ahh so pretty reminds me of home except we don't have rivers that big with water that foamy XD
hahaha nah, just wanted to add more drama :P
That's a sanctuary bro. You really know your trees there and that 65m tall, I have never seen one before. All quality shots, cheers :)
Yes the mountain ash trees are one of the tallest trees in Victoria state, I think the tallest is 84m in the same region.
I wanted to take a photo of the trunk of the tree because their huge, but with no reference it's hard to tell how wide they really are.
Beautiful
