Some photos from a trip to Mt Pillinger yesterday.
It's a great time of year to be out and about with the camera - so much to see on a walk.

A bigger collection from this walk can be viewed at http://www.tasadam.com
EDIT that gallery is currently offline.

As a side note, Is Mt Pillinger spelt with one L or two?
A friend sent me this message -
Incidentally Pilinger apparently has one 'L' as distinct from "Pillinger" township on Kelly Basin, Maquarie Harbour.
However, I have found maps which contradict one another as to the spelling of Mt Pil(l)inger. It would be interesting to know the origin of both.

Adam,
As usual great photographs you really do "stop and smell the roses" and I agree that this a great time to check out the summer wild flower blooms.
