Lake Tyrell Road Trip
I recently had the opportunity to spend a few days up at Lake Tyrell in Victoria’s north.
It was gorgeous up there, and I came to realise a few things.
-
After spending days in a landscape so flat you can see the curvature of the Earth, under a giant bowl of blue sky, I hate the crammed-down and shoehorned-into-a-box feeling that being in the city gives me
-
After days of near silence where the only sounds are the distant rumble of the trucks on the highway, bird song and the noise of the wind through the trees, I hate the constant and never-ending hubbub of the city
-
After spending nights under the stars, where the starlight is enough to see by, and looking up at the immense and endless vista of the night sky, I hate the blinding light pollution of the city
The panoramic image below was taken from the shore of Lake Tyrell, and although I used my widest lens, it wasn’t wide enough to capture the sheer immensity of the landscape.
