I love the walkers at 2:29.
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

Well spotted icefest, I hadn't seen them. They look like scurrying ants :lol: Certainly adds some scale to the view.

What was your setup for all this?

It wasn't my work icefest, it was just something I found on Youtube.
I was really taken with it. Someone obviously spent a lot of hours on it.

I'll edit the OP to make that clear.

That was beautiful, had to stop everything and pay the clip the attention it deserves.
Another person later at 3min something though the first two were very cute ants.

Thanks for posting that up.

As someone who hasn't been there yet it sure has inspired me to do so.
Does it count that I've just signed up for the Bogong to Hotham Ultra marathon in January.
Not sure how much scenery on the long climbs I'll enjoy but hopefully for the rest I'll get to have a look around (Weather pending).
I am a GEAR JUNKIE and GRAM COUNTER !!

There, It's out. I said it, Ahh I feel better now :lol:
