Alpine sunrise

Mt Buffalo, The Razorback and Mt Feathertop

Alpine National Park, Victoria, Australia

It took me about five mornings in a row to finally capture this photograph. I knew I wanted to shoot sunrise over the Razorback from this location, but each morning after driving up Mt Hotham and then walking out in the dark, right on sunrise the fog would roll in from behind me and obscure this view. Finally on this morning, the fog held off just long enough to give me this scene at sunrise as the first light hit the peak of Mt Feathertop and Mt Buffalo in the background. Not long after I took this, the fog again rolled in, blocking this view. With the local conditions having tested my patience on the mornings prior I was very happy to walk away with a winter shot that highlights many of the memorable landmarks I love in north-eastern Victoria.
