Merrijig Road Trip

It has been years since I've been to the High Country, and just last week an opportunity presented itself to go there again with a friend. It was only a couple of weeks since our last little holiday to the Grampians, but for various reasons the timing was good again now. Partly because the weather is about to start getting prohibitively cold for easy hiking up there.

It was a pretty awesome little holiday. Got a lot of good hiking in, as well as a sunset picnic on the summit of Mount Buller - which was easily the best (and craziest) picnic I've ever had in my lifetime!

Here's a selection of pics:

Grampians Trip

I went to the Grampians National Park for a little four day holiday a few days ago. It was pretty awesome! Ended up going on hikes every day and there was very little real relaxation or downtime - but it was absolutely worth it!

The photo opportunities out there were pretty amazing, but I didn't particularly concentrate on my photography over there. It was more of a hiking trip than a specific photography expedition. But I still managed to get some interesting shots which are (hopefully) a bit more interesting than average holiday snaps....
