    Photography on the Gold coast

    Hi all,

    It has been a little while since I have been on here (way too long really)

    I am heading to the Gold coast next month and I am hoping to get some time to snap some photos between other commitments, if you had an afternoon free where would you head to?

    Paul

    In answer to your question Paul , You can go to Mt Tamborine to get a mountain Sunset, Or Snapper Rocks if on the Southern end , Currumbin Rock is also OK for Sunsets, Maybe the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary at the 4.00 pm feeding if your into birds , Very colourful , Heaps of mountain streams in the late arvo light as well up Currumbin Valley , Evandale lake with the Q1 at dusk is always a goodie , Get the lift up to the 88th floor of the Q1 on the viewing deck at sunset or a thunder storm is spectacullar with lightening hitting the conductor , Your call there is heaps of possibilities on the Gold Coast , Thats the reason Greg and I asked the question of where will you be

    or you could just go to Cavel Ave and shoot the local wildlife. It's up to you.

    Springbrook NP is worth a meniton too. Natural Bridge/Arch is very popular.

    Thanks for the information and suggestions.

    I am staying near Benowa which I understand is half way between the coast and the mountains. I am still arranging the details but it looks like I will have an afternoon free but need to be back by late afternoon so within an hours drive would be excellent.
