Perched at the top of the mountain in the rainforest of Lamington Nat’l Park, looking down and across the lowlands can be quite spectacular! It had been a marvelous day of photography the birds of the rainforest. When we emerged from that mysterious and darkened world we were looking out at this splendor. With the long lens already attached, it was real easy to make the click!

When the light first broke through the breaking rain, the drama to me was all B&W so that’s what I shot. Then as the opening in the clouds got bigger, the light warmed and it then became a full spectrum shot. Then from the treetop bar as the sun set, it became a very rosey photo. At that point though, the camera was put to rest. But I can tell you that it was splendid, the view from the top!
