On the Beach at Lilly's Cottage

Description

This is another image taken when I was down in Tasmania. It is taken at a place called Lilly's Cottage about 10km north of Bicheno. You can stay at the cottage for $5.00 per night. The cottage itself has no electricity or hot running water and is a very unique place to stay. The shower ammenities is actually an outside bath and you can fill it with warm water from an old heating tank that you light a fire under. A great place to stop for a day a two if you ever get the chance.

WOW!!! Thank you to everybody that commented on this photo.

Sorry it has taken me some time to get back to everyone that asked a few questions. I've had computer trouble again but I'm back up and running again now! :-)

Firstly, someone sent me a message that viewed this image about a range of lenses they were interested in, I've lost that message, so if you read this, send it to me again.

Monique, I have attached a couple of photos for the outside bath, the cottage and the sleeping huts to give you a bit more of a feel for the place.

Sylvia, the exif data is as follows Canon 300D. Focal length 37mm f25 5 sec ISO 100. A 2 stop neutral grey grad filter was used for the sky and the final image was enhanced in PS.

Thanks again to everyone for their comment.

Cheers Adam
