 Mountain Heaths 

Here are a selection of shots from a walk in the Snowy Mountains. These were taken on a walk along the Rainbow Lake path and I have not identified the heath species . I have simply tried to capture the tapestry effect of their flower heads. The heaths are now luxurient in their long regeneration after the 2003 fire that burnt through the area. Although some of the Snow Gum trees were killed, many have sprung new growth, mixing green leaves through the white bones of the burnt stems.

Waist high heaths flank the path.

The heaths dominate the clearings in the woodland.


Tapestry.


A mix of tree and heath. 


The scent from the flowers was powerful in the warm humid air. 


Charming to look over,  challenging to walk through. 

Keep to the path.
