Reflections - Old Goulburn River Lagoons

These are 300+ year old river red gum trees growing on the old former

flow of the Goulburn River before the new channel was cut when the

Eildon Dam was constructed. The old river bed is now a chain of

beautiful lagoons - part of which run through my parent's farm.

This is the first time in 14 years the lagoons have had water in them

after good winter and spring rains have returned to this part of the

world. I'm thrilled to be able to capture these reflections I once

gazed upon well before I became interested in photography.

The tree's are such a beautiful shape and I like how you have caught them in the light. I am not suprised you are thrilled to see the waterways full again, the reflections are just brilliant. long may there continue to be water in them. I think the photo opportunities on your doorstep will be amazing.

Nice work Mathew!

Best Regards
