Before I get into what we got up to I'll quickly put it out there for clubs, groups and individuals alike that are interested in personalised photography guided tours to contact me for a some locations, options and prices.
Well we kicked things off on Saturday afternoon by walking to the Pinnacle. The walk is diverse, adventurous and the view ever-changing and spectacular.

From there we went up to Reeds lookout in time for the sunset. With near on 360 degree views at the top, we needed to be scanning all round for the best light and photographic opportunities as they arose. Light changes quickly during the "magic hour" around sunset.

| Last light. Lake Wartook lies beneath the peaks of the Mt Difficult Range |
 |
| Long after the sun has set the light is often at its best. |
After a senational dinner in Halls Gap and a good sleep we awoke early to ensure we arrived at Boroka Lookout before sunrise. Well was it ever worth it, we managed to witness a Grampians sunrise at its best with everyone in the group taking home some 'keepers'.

| With the sun now up the colour spectrum is still changing. What a morning! |
After our sunrise treat we moved along to MacKenzie Falls. It's the largest and most spectacular waterfall in the Grampians and the photographic experience for the group didn't disappoint.
