The blurry thing hanging down from the top edge on the right hand side is an icicle. I didn't see it on the ground-glass of the camera when focussing the camera at maximum aperture and didn't realise it would come into partial focus when the lens was stopped dowm. Darn!
Snow Gum Grove Infrared

Titled and signed recto, stamped verso.
The grove and hillside are the same in both pictures but what a difference a change of weather and a change of film makes! Both exposures were made looking through the window that's behind the sink in the kitchen of Pygmy Possum Lodge at Charlotte Pass.
