Lake Lilla, on the way to Marion Lookout, Cradle Mountain National Park, Tasmania, Australia

It is uncharacteristically warm this April (2007). Our family including the kids 8,6 &3 climbed

up to Marion Lookout, ascending 800 metres or so. We are particularly proud that Eleanor

who is ony three and a half year old, managed to walk all the way up this very high peak.

This photograph is taken of Lake Lilla on the way back in the afternoon with Cradle Mountain

in the distance. Interested viewers should see Kah Kit Yoong's excellent portfolio including a

photograph taken at this very location last year.

An excellent image with perfect colours and lights! Compliments and regards Maury

This vertical composition works well. You found one of my favourite glacial erratics. I was doing the overland track during this time, the weather was great for walking but the skies a bit bland for photography. I'm really impressed that your kids made it to Marion's lookout.

Thanks, Maury and Kah Kit, I agree that the sky is bland and perhaps a bit glaring. It would be better for me to have used one of your graduated filters to darken the sky to get more details out of it. Thanks for looking and commenting. Cheers, Hung

Did you use a polarizing filter? I think the glare coming off the scene would be handled better with a polarizer than ND grad. Maybe a 1 stop ND grad on top of the polarizer.

Wonderful clarity, an excellent shot, bravo.
