Deep in a side gully off Karangahake Gorge NZ.
Maybe it was used by a Scotsman for Gold prospecting back in the day !
“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal.”
-Lord Byron
First day of photography workshop with Brett Wood. Sunset photos at Sparks Gully on the Great ocean Road.
A unique gorge, probably formed by a massive floodwater pulse sometime during the last ice age.

Found this little spur coming through a pass along the Tophouse Road. This small stream had almost made it's way down the mountain and into the Waiau Toa or Clarence River.
Taken a year ago tomorrow, this is a rainforest trail in Great Otway National Park, Victoria, which we visited in the cold and rain. Beautiful nonetheless!
I had another go at this shot with a good deal of sliding...
HSS!
I found this waterfall at the end of a hill track I've been meaning to explore for a while. Just above the waterfall is another of the small dams that are being built in the area to provide hydropower. The waterfall was first seen from the path which was a good 20-30 feet above the river so it was a bit of a clamber to get down the steep slope to get down to water level to take this shot.
Thank you everyone for your comments and faves on my last post. You did it again pushing me into Explore! This is two exposures handheld except for leaning on a walking pole. The water from the slow exposure was copied and pasted over the rocks in the faster exposure. The EXIF gives the details for the rock exposure.
Sunset on Mt. Shuksan,. or Rumble Gully. When conditions are right, which is often, skiers can hear the not-so-faraway rumble of avalanches tumbling down the gully.

Came across this fern-strewn patch during a walk. There's just something so exotic, lush, and magical about ferns.
As a kid growing up I watched the cartoon Fern Gully about a bagillion times. Anyone else know about it? I don't know how entertaining it may be for an adult, but it has some good messages in it. Even though the film takes place in a jungle, there are times when I walk through a mushroom-laden, moss covered, fern infested forest of the PNW that I feel like I'm in my own version of that magical place.
A view from a gully on the southern slopes of Mt. Rauðahnúkafjall in SW-Iceland. The mountain in the back is Mt. Skarðsheiði, with the highest peak, Heiðarhorn (1053 m) to the right. The orange-coloured rock is rhyolite, a silica-rich volcanic rock, that is light in colour, often with a palette from light-grey to burnt orange.
Erosion along a levee in the Pixley National Wildlife Refuge north of Wasco, California near Allensworth.
Here's a wider view of Gully, who you can see close-up in the first comment below. So named because he was seen chasing and eating gulls when he was younger. Or so they say.
