Then the top of Little Horn peeps up on the horizon, maybe I’m getting close I think. Within another 20 metres the whole purpose of the excursion becomes apparent. The vista before me is simply breathtaking. Twisted Lakes is but a mirror, everything I’d hoped and planned for has come to fruition.
When you come upon something as good as this, it’s overwhelming. The sheer majesty of the panorama engulfs you, its power makes you feel so humble in its presence, there’s a distinct aura of “something else”, but it’s indefinable. It’s all my grey matter can do to remind me that I’m here to actually take photos. You just don’t want to stop looking for fear that it will all go away and you’ll be denied any more pleasure; but it stays as I set up the tripod. It’s not often I put myself in the picture, but here I feel it’s a must. Then I can look at it and remember just where I sat and how good it was.
There are many angles to be had here. Faint trails indicate where other photographers have been, little flattened sections indicative of footfalls. It takes me around 15 minutes to get what I came for and then I sit down and enjoy breakfast, although “enjoy” seems like a totally inadequate verb in this case, there is a higher plane involved here, one you get to experience so few times in life.
The cloud has started to form more seriously now, as predicted, and it adds a little to the experience. Changing lens and shifting position constantly I can but hope I’ve got it covered and, even as I’m moving around, the first gentle ripples of the day’s breezes disturb the surface. Had I been here any later I would have missed it. You like to think it’s good fortune but reflect on that fact that you’ve planned it for a week, constantly following the weather patterns, in the hope that you’ll get it right and leaving early enough to avoid all the problems that occur later.

“體驗膠囊旅館，地點在Launceston 市區，附近有停車場，便宜的停車場可以詢問櫃台人員，路邊停車星期日及假日不收費。膠囊內部、浴室，整體都很乾淨。膠囊裡有附耳塞，在內部也是會聽到其他人走動聲音，在意噪音的人可以多考慮，但整體而言不會吵。有廚房及冰箱，可以做簡單的餐點，附近有Woolworths可採買食物。值得推薦給大家體驗膠囊旅館。”

“Bridport Breeze is a beautiful home - a perfect place to unwind and relax. Everything you need to have a stress free, relaxing stay is provided. The beds are very comfortable, the outdoor area is amazing - plenty of room to sit and enjoy the view, the kitchen is well appointed and everything is clean and designed for relaxation in mind. Communication was excellent from the hosts. Our only regret is that we did not have longer to stay here. Thank you for hosting us!”
