The adventure continues and these are great Pauline. I don't have a head for heights but love the view of the river, and look at the colour of those rocks, thats got to an old copper mine surely, I also notice rail tracks have been left in situ, is there a mining museum nearby, excellent set

I like them all, the first one has a terrific perspective, look forward to seeing more.

Many thanks FoG. That shot was taken from a great height, through one of the windows in the rock face. It certainly was an amazing place to bring up children...wide open spaces and miles of adventure.

Thankyou Beach. Gold was the thing of that era, and no, unfortunately they haven't got a museum as such, but plenty of history is on the billboards along the walkway.

Thankyou Bill. That first shot is certainly one of the best of this area...but there are so many shooting opportunities in and around the here. An awesome place to cut loose with a camera.
