Nice photos - thanks.

Its an effort to get to the big island, so I have not planned on getting to its smaller offsider.
But it does appear to have some interesting walks and coastlines.

:D ! i was there on sunday.

yes i agree, the photos just doesn't show just how amazing the colours of the water, and the contrast against the cliffs and the hills and and just the grandness of it all...

I have this one too.. with me in it.. it gives a better idea of scale...

I think the best campsite on Bruny Island is the place just south of the neck

You don't need a panorama camera, you just need to take a series of photos that can be 'stitched together' with photo software.

I get pretty good results with the open-source (i.e free) Hugin software:
http://hugin.sourceforge.net/

You can download binaries for windows, Mac and Linux.
