Lots of classical receding planes in the best tradition. Some Ansel clouds would have been wonderful in that clear sky.

 

Some more of that stuff but with clouds....

Mark, I think that those two are very impressive as well. A neat feature of the first is that is quite minimalist, almost abstract when you 'step back'
The second one at Terrigal is quite unique. The top quarter of 'conventional seascape" becomes almost a caldera of a water volcano with the flow over the edge, if that makes sense.

That Lake Eucumbene photograph is beautiful Dee. How stark with the dead trees (oh I think that's a live tree in the distance on the horizon to the right), rocks and metal fence. Have you more of the area. Haven't been there for over 30 years.

Mark, 

Thanks, this next photo is also from Frying Pan Creek. The trees were drowned with the flooding of Eucumbene dam (1958).

When I was last there with a camera the water level was comparatively low, but the granite boulders have high water marks on them,

the wire fences are still in place as it's a sheep paddock to the water line....it is quite surreal.

Lake Eucumbene, NSW: eucalyptus graveyard.

Another shot from the surreal surrounds of this capacious man made lake, it can hold (but doesn't always) nine times the amount of water that is in Sydney Harbour.

On my photo trips to the lake I have never met (nor even sighted) another person, it can be bit spooky, just wind and utter silence....this tree graveyard on the high tide line is especially weird.

Dee,

 

the eucumbene series is outstanding in terms of cpaturing the chracteristics of such an arid land and its structure.

Lake Eucumbene at Frying Pan Creek, the road in to the lake. (Mark, you might want to bring your Four Wheel Drive!)....this is a public access road, but it runs through

private property and is kept in very ordinary condition, probably to discourage annoying photographers...et al.

The standing cloud to the right of frame is formed by a big westerly wind blowing over the Snowy Mountains, just over the hill but out of view.

Dee,

 

wow, the symmetries here are outstanding: clouds-tree, sky-land, rocks-clouds, take the middle line and everything reflects each other without even water...
