As per the last post I am in the process of uploading a series of galleries on Tasmania.

The first features the Overland Track – a six day wilderness walk featuring tarns, rainforest, waterfalls, native animals, button grass moors and beautiful vistas from every angle you can imagine.

The gallery below contains 30 images, but click on the link above to see all the images from the track.

Moss, lichen, button grass, wallabies, pademelons, quolls, deserted beaches, alpine views, endless walking tracks…

I’ve just spent the last two weeks in Tasmania, one of which was on the Overland Track, and am in the process of uploading new photo galleries.

I’ll feature these in the next few days, in the meantime this is my favourite image from the top of Mt Ossa, the highest point in Tasmania. This tarn reflected some of the glorious views that you could see from the summit.

My friend Rudy was cremated today in a simple service after he died last week after a long battle with AIDS. Amazing Grace was played at the crematorium and the speaker drew reference to this particular verse that was especially poignant for Rudy:

My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace

Visited Planet’s philosophy and creed is about redemption, liberation and freedom. Rudy had found that in his life, the challenge is for the rest of us to do the same and enable others to do so too.

I published a gallery of photographs for Rudy last week, today I just wanted to share one more. This is an image an orphan in Myanmar took during photography lessons I ran there in November/December 2011. A simple white flower, fragile in form, delicate in spirit but bright and verdant with life. Not only does this reflect the journey of the nation Myanmar, the student who took the image but also Rudy – bright in life, filled with hope and living forever in our hearts. RIP.

This photograph is one of the images used in the 2012 Myanmar calendar. These calendars are still available.
