Relic of the past
Lens: FA 43/1.9 Camera: K-7 Photo Location: Tasmania, Australia 
Posted By: samski_1, 04-03-2011, 03:18 AM

I went on a week long hike with a some mates last week to the south west of the state which is now classified as World Heritage Area. We stumbled on an old plough and cross-cut saw that belonged to a man who lived there alone for years prior to the World Heritage Declaration. Man, it would have been a tough life - he only had his feet and a horse to transport himself and his gear to and from the civilised world which was more than 60km away including a major river crossing.

There has been no post processing to these pictures - the rust was a really bright orange.

I'll post some of the landscapes from the trip in the relevant section when I get a chance.

Thanks for looking,
Sam

Nice shots, they add a little history mixed with a little mystery!
