Crater lake and deciduous beech Nothofagus gunnii

We headed to Tassy on the ferry, and headed up to Cradle Mt for a few days, then, via the north west and west coast down to Mt Field.  Between Cradle Mountain and Mount Field we hoped to have lots of chance to see lots of deciduous beech in autumn colours. Alas, this year was a bit unusual. The beech leaves turned yellow and then fell off, with no red phase. Still, the yellow was very striking. We also enjoyed all the scenery and the remarkably good weather (for the time of year). It was also a great time of year for fungi, and I spend some time photographing all sorts.

I’ve placed a series of photos in galleries:
