Mount Macedon, Lavandula

Source: http://www.visitmacedonranges.com/natural-attractions/hanging-rock/about-the-reserve/

"Hanging Rock is said to be one of the best examples in the world of a volcanic feature known as a mamelon (French lit. nipple). It was formed six million years ago when a particularly stiff type of lava formed a rounded pile of layers on the surface as it was squeezed through a narrow vent in the earth.

The lava in Hanging Rock has a particularly high soda content and the action of rainwater has resulted in an unusual rock known as solvsbergite, or soda trachyte, which is the same rock found at the nearby Camel's Hump on Mt. Macedon.
(This type of rock is only found in outside of the region in Norway & Sweden.)

Since its formation, the mamelon has been exposed to considerable weathering and erosion, resulting in the unusual rock formations that can now be seen on the site."

On to the photos..

Mornington Peninsula

Had a weekend trip to Mornington Peninsula (April 2015)

Vineyard @ Montalto

View of bay @ Mornington

Bathing houses @ Mount Martha

Self-portrait shot!

Taken with polarizer. Notice the bluer/darker sky, less glare on the bathing houses.

Bathing houses closeup

Someone disturbed a flock of seagulls feeding on the ground.

Bathing houses @ Mount Martha at spur of the moment

Met lots of groups of wedding couples with photographers. By my count, I saw 4 pairs. There was a nice walk to the tip of the peninsula, as well as a lighthouse overlooking the cliff & Bass Strait.
