The
Blue Mountains have
justifiably earned
their reputation as
one of Australia's
leading photographic
destinations. The
area offers a
diverse range of
landscapes, delicate
close-up macro
photography studies,
remote valleys and
gorges, plunging
waterfalls, abundant
bird life and
opulent architecture
left over from a
bygone era.
Our workshop starts
with an
mid
morning
photo fest in the
beautiful
Everglades
gardens
.....
renowned for their
year-round beauty;
glorious
rhododendrons,
daffodils and
carpeted meadows in
spring, rich reds
and golds in Autumn.
In
spring, the sharp
clean light is
excellent for
panoramic shots over
the surrounding
valleys.
Our
program
includes a
walk on the
Wentworth falls
track, photographing
waterfalls and close
up nature shots.
We walk the Overcliff Track &
Darwin's Walk
through
to the Valley
of the Waters
with a descent of
approximately 200m
to shoot the
Waterfalls en route.
After lunch in a
Leura cafe we
capture the bygone
era of the
Carrington Hotel
in Katoomba.....
an old spa
hotel and a
wonderful example of
1920's opulent
grandeur, of tea
dances and weekend
retreats from
another era.
We then photograph
the towering
crags which form the
Three Sisters
and
finish a memorable
day with champagne
looking across the
Jameson Valley ,
blue with the hue
from aerial haze.
