The Moods of Pedder (Tasmania)

Lake Pedder was a goose-bump beautiful lake destroyed by the Tasmanian Hydro Authority (I think in the early 70s) when it was flooded to create Pedder Dam, an act of gross environmental vandalism. However, the area (in south-west Tasmania) still retains some of its extraordinary beauty, as you can see from these shots of Pedder, mostly taken from Mt Eliza on its eastern shore.

Maxine Such stunning photos. You inspire me. I'd love to have the opportunity to go somewhere nice to take great landscape photos. Landscape photography is my favourite. Keep up the great work, mate! :)

rolpa Magic set - love these. The mood and beauty of Pedder which even the dam can't hide. You can feel the changing weather, the wind and the light. #4, #5 and #6 are my favourites (especially #6 for me).

Jannie My faves are 1, 5 & 6. Beautiful place. You should be proud, you have done an awesome job of sharing a part of the world some of us may never see. (I plan on seeing it, mind you!!)
