Even though the walk started mid-morning, wherever the sun had not been able to get into was thick frost and ice. This gave everyone an opportunity to try and capture the crystal-like formations the frost made.

Reaching for the Sky – WW Photo Walk 2009
Click to Enlarge
These Poplar Trees have taken on a silver colour during the winter months after shedding their leaves. It will only be a few short weeks before they start shooting new growth. This photo was taken nearly opposite the the Willow in the picture below. A CPF was used to bring the colour out in the sky. In fact, no post-processing has been done at all, save the framing.

Linear Park – WW Photowalk 2009
Click to Enlarge
Today was the World Wide Photo Walk. It’s Hobart’s first time being involved, with this being the second year for the event. Led by Nigel Honey, a group of 18 met at the Molle St car park, where the entrace of Linear Park is, and walked from there to the Cascade Brewery along the Hobart Rivulet track.
It proved to be a challenging day for photography as even though were were graced with the first fine weather on a Saturday for many weeks, much of the rivulet was heavily shaded by weeping willows and other large shrubs growing along steep embankments.
There’s a lot to be said for carrying a circular polarising filter. Picture says it all really.
After reaching the Brewery, we walked back along Macquarie St and retired to the Cascade Hotel, where we were served Super Schnitzels (Think a 22cm plate covered entirely by schnitzel) and 600g rib eye steaks.
I think everyone who was there can agree that it was a great day out.
