Erskine River, Lorne.

Canon 1Ds II with f2.8 16-35mm "L" lens

Finally today we started to see some rain here in Mildura, the first for quite some time. Not enough mine you to do anything except lift the spirits of locals a bit and maybe wash some dust of the trees but every little helps. Listening to the rain falling on our studions iron roof makes me want to pack up my camera gear and head into the bush again. There is nothing quite like shooting the Australian bush in the rain.
But that's not going to happen for a while at least so I've dragged out this shot, created on the Erskine River, in Victoria's Ottway Ranges a couple of months ago. Yes even there the drought is making itself felt but at least it still feels and smells like a rain forest. Meantime the outback photographer is back to his trusty Macpro to process some more images and listen to the rain keep falling. (hopefully)
