This lone tree on the edge of Lake Wyeba on the sunshine Coast is becoming more and more famous. I've never shot it before so when I went to the sunshine Coast this week for a break I decided that it was a must shoot. While I didn't get any gorgeous sunrise clouds I was grateful to be there in the peace and quiet listening to the bird song as they woke to another glorious day. I was a wonderful way to begin the day.
We are in dire need of rain at the moment - our dams are drying up.
I have never seen the water levels at Moogerah Dam so low. There is a tree that is usually in the water that every photographer shoots when they come to this spot - its now behind me and way to the left. Moogerah is still hauntingly beautiful but seeing it like this just makes me so sad.
LD 27 Crazy Clouds over Moogerah
I just love Moogerah Dam. Every single time I go there I come away happy - not only beause I always get amazing images here but because it always gives me a sense of peace and calm and serenity. These Clouds yesterday was just wonderful, there were also fires nearby creating a smoky haze in the sky too

Same tree, different angle (see previous image) This lone tree on the edge of Lake Wyeba on the sunshine Coast is becoming more and more famous.

How stunning is this place. I absolutely love it here.
Moogerah Dam certainly put on a show for me last Saturday afternoon. when I arrived a storm was looming, there were Mammatus clouds, and moody skies. At one point I just didn't know where to point my camera as the scene was changing so quickly before my eyes. One minute it was storming and I was getting drenched and the next the sun was setting. It was certainly an adventurous afternoon I even thought I was bogged but thankfully got myself out of it.
Taken at the same location as the previous image. I was hoping for some cracked earth as I had plans to lie on the ground and make a feature out of it but I wasn't counting on it being wet and muddy, EEWWW! I'm a keen photographer but not THAT keen :)

I headed out to Moogerah Dam and boy was it a beautiful morning! the mist was gorgeous as was the scenery! I felt very privileged to be there.

It was a pleasant surprise to find fog at the Bundamba lagoon last Saturday morning. it sure did make the morning look pretty.
Taken at a secret location that you just would never even think about stopping at. This dam's dry bed with its dead trees somehow took me back to Sossusvlei in Namibia, on a much smaller scale of course. I hope you enjoy :)
I visited this dam while I was on holidays and was blown away by its beauty... see that heavy rain coming??? Yes I got absolutely DROWNED, AND, I had a leech on me Yikes!!! ... but I think it was worth it, don't you?

Twilight over Moogerah Dam
A beautiful evening at Moogerah Dam. This amazing place always delivers - its always haunting beautiful and so very different every time I visit.

Taken just outside of Stanthorpe on the first evening of my road trip. I was hoping for some colour but it was not to be. Still, I like the different shades of blue that have come out in this shot - I hope you do too :)
Moogerah Dam - it was strangely eerie.
Moogerah Dam at Sunset, and what a pretty sunset it was too! this is becoming one of my favourite places.
There is something so very special about Moogerah Dam. There is a sense of peace and tranquility there. I like to go there when life gets tough just to take in its beauty.
