Tasmanian Photography Locations

I’m often asked by photographers on where is best to photograph in Tasmania. This is a small list of photographic locations that I’d recommend checking out while in Tasmania. I’m aware that there is many locations missing from this list but that’s because I’m yet to photograph them so will update the list accordingly. Also most of these locations should suit most people as they’re quite…

Worlds Edge

We left Marrawah and first headed North, taking a track to the other end of the beach. It was very narrow, began to get steeper into sand and with no recovery gear, we backed up and managed to turn around without incident. (For me, a highlight of the trip!) We next set off for The Edge of The World! Olympus/OM System OM1:M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 14-150mm F4.0-5.6 II,Olympus 75-300 f4.8-6.7 II ED MSC

Your Weekend Guide to Stanley, Tasmania

For all the glory and international accolade Tasmania has attained in recent years, the North West Coast remains a secret to most visitors. For me growing up in Tasmania has been a dream come true and much of that dream was lived on the coast less talked about – the North West. While the beaches are just as enviable, the moody winters are not. That is of course until now. The recently opened Ship Inn provides the perfect shoulder season getaway with the dramatic backdrop of Stanley’s famed “Nut” in the immediate background.

Stanley: A Hidden Gem on the Northwest Coast

For all the secret Tasmania holds, Stanley is one of the greats. This colonial township came to fruition in the early 19th Century when the Van Diemen’s Land Company was granted land in the Circular Head area, including Stanley. The town is of course today famous for its affectionately dubbed “Nut”, officially called Munatrik, an old volcanic plug that attracts climbers for its short but steep ascent.

With the harsh winters and often windy shoulder seasons that see more rainy days than clear ones, visitors to Stanley are fairly confined to the peak summer season. However one of the best pieces of advice one could give visitors to Tasmania is to travel off-season to escape the crowds and embrace the colder climate. With the recent arrival of The Ship Inn, a luxurious hotel embracing dark tones and the seaside gloom, there is a perfect excuse to visit Stanley off season.

Having visited Stanley more times than I can count in this lifetime, I was sure I had seen it all. This part of Tasmania doesn’t often see new hotels break through, especially family owned and operated boutiques. Thus when I heard on the grapevine about a new luxury hotel opening in Stanley, I was eager to see what it was about.

The Ship Inn is the kind of seaside escape we have all probably imagined exists but are yet to find it. The interiors are dark and mysterious, embracing the winter warmth with various shades of grey, plaid fabrics and unique textures. It is a modern celebration of the ship merchant lifestyle with trinkets and treasures adorning the walls and bedside tables, reminding us of the origins of Stanley and indeed the rest of Australia.

If you can persuade your significant other to leave the hotel room for even just a few hours, most of Stanley can be seen in one afternoon. The fabulous Xanders is one of the best restaurants this side of Launceston, open Wednesday-Sunday. There are a handful of small boutiques that double as art galleries and providores, all of which are worthy of a peak inside. Another new addition to the town is the Tasmanian Wine & Food wine bar with its cozy interior and playful cocktail menu.

The main activity for your visit will be to climb “The Nut”, Stanley’s famed volcanic rock formation. It is a short and sharp 15 minute climb to the top, with a track to enjoy panoramic views at the summit.

Elsewhere nearby be sure to venture inland to Cradle Mountain, further along the coast to the Tarkine Adventure and if you’re eager to find more hidden gems, Marrawah and the Arthur River are also within driving distance.

A very big thank you to The Ship Inn for welcoming us to enjoy two nights in my old stomping ground and share this part of the world with my readers. All opinions and photos are my own!

Marrawah

The first day of our holiday was wild, windy and sometimes rainy. Perhaps that sounds bad and disappointing to most, but for this day of adventure down the rugged North West Coast of Tasmania from Marrawah to Temma, it was PERFECT! These images were all taken at the start of our day, Marrawah – mainland Tasmania’s western most settlement and the furthest settlement from Hobart, where it was…

Client is the focus

Hi All...well this will be the last of 2017. 

One of the things I wish I had done more of during the year is provide more BTS (behind-the-scenes) insights. It's usually once I am back home uploading when I give myself a kick and say "should of bts'd that one"... and of course it's too late then. The problem I have is that once on a job I find my entire focus is on the actual job...not on how I am doing the job for others to see. It would make my blogging, Instagram and other social media easier...and I'm sure marketing advisors would say I need to do more on that front...but I'm pretty sure I have my priorities right. The client is the most important factor...they deserve my full attention.

The last week saw me with 3 very different clients in 3 diverse locations. Early in the week I was shooting for the Mercury newspaper in Launceston, covering AFL team Brisbane Lions' training and a story on strange dog names.

Midweek saw me at Sheffield shooting trucks for International.

The stunning scenery and great weather provided some pretty sweet images.

And then to Marrawah for family portraits.

I'm pretty sure I have mentioned previously how much I love the diversity...and the people I get to meet.

Speaking of people...this time of year is one where we are thankful for our families and friends. 

From my crazy family to yours...be nice to each other, stay safe and I'll see you in the New Year.

The Finest Places

        How’s this for a cultural experience? We often find we have the best and sometimes most unusual experiences in less traveled out-of-the-way places. We laugh about John always taking me to “the finest places” which can mean anything from truly awe inspiring, to a charming dump. In northwestern Tasmania it can be quite remote with minimal people and lots of cows for dairy farming, which can be charming and dumpy depending upon your perspective. When we came upon the town of Marrawah where we had planned on spending the night, we were glad to take a break after a few hours of driving. Once checked in at the campground (that was definitely charming and mostly dumpy) we wanted to get something to eat and were told the only place in town to get a meal was at the Pub about 8 miles down the road. When we got there about 4:15pm they were not serving dinner yet, but the woman who worked there got us a drink and we sat and chatted with her for awhile. She told us a bit about the town and that we were lucky we were there on a Thursday because every Thursday evening they have the “Jackpot Jack” drawing. Everyone in town comes there on Thursday evening in hopes of winning the Jackpot of $750 or one of the lesser prizes (2 six packs of beer, 2 bottles of wine, 2 meat trays).         They give out one raffle ticket to every one in the bar and attached restaurant, and hold the drawing at 6:30pm. If you have one of the numbers they call then you go up to a big board on the wall covered in playing cards and get to turn one over to see if you won. We told the bartender we would be back when they started serving dinner and headed to the beach that was right down the road a couple minutes away. We talked a little about how nice it was that they had the raffle and that it was a good way to get everyone in town together. As we pulled up to the beach I said to John, “When I win, I’m going to buy everyone a drink”. He just looked at me and didn’t reply. I forgot about it as we walked towards the beach and started taking photos and talking with some biker guys we met.         Around 6:00pm we headed back to the Pub and the parking lot was starting to get full when we pulled in. We ordered dinner, talked to the people around us and just enjoyed the atmosphere. We were eating dinner when they starting calling out the numbers and John heard them call the number on one of the tickets we had. He insisted I choose the card so I walked up to the board while all eyes were watching me. Without much scrutiny I reached out and turned over a card and there was that handsome Jack smiling at me. I blinked a few times to make sure I was seeing it correctly and then said “Wow, I won. Ha, I won, I won”. The manager of the place came over, looked and smiled at me while I started to let it sink in. John was laughing and everyone in the bar was looking at me. After that I just went back to the table to finish eating amongst hearing the congratulations everyone was offering. Back at the table I whispered to John, “I told you I was going to win”.         While finishing our dinner I wasn’t sure what to do so I just tried to relax and enjoy the feeling. The manager eventually came over and handed me an envelop full of cash. She lingered at the table while I expressed my thanks and we talked a little. Finally she said it was customary for the winner to offer a “little something” to the others. I wasn’t sure if she meant the staff or the patrons so I asked, and she said the patrons. I told her I wanted to buy drinks but wasn’t sure how much or how to go about it. Since they do this often, although don’t always have a big winner, they knew best how to handle it. She suggested $150 would be good based on the amount of people that were there so I opened the envelop and gave her the money. The patrons in the bar were mostly the dairy farmers and their wives, some tourists, a few biker guys passing through, the family that runs the camp grounds, and old surfers who had settled in the area. These folks do not have much money and very much appreciate a free drink. I was told later the locals are not happy when a tourist wins and they take the money and run. Of course I wanted to buy everyone a drink and it seems as though it had been my intent all along, even before I knew I won. When we were leaving just about everyone in the bar came over to thank me and to chat with us. They were so nice and appreciative and curious about us. We got to meet a lot of people and make some passing friends. It was a fun camaraderie, and we were still laughing when we got outside as John told everyone I was his “Sugar Mama”. Life is full of surprises and we never know what experiences it will lead to or what will happen next.         For all the photos see John and Charlotte’s flickr sites.
