"Light illuminates texture and color, shadows define form" is phrase attributed to an american illustrator and writer Howard Pyle. It's a term often used by photographers as "Light illuminates and shadows define" and is a great way to describe dynamic range and contrast. This post though is about a different type of range.

On a photo project this weekend I travelled to Wentworth Falls, its a town in the Blue Mountains, New South Wales about 100 Kms west of Sydney on the Great Western Highway at an elevation of 867 metres.

Choosing carefully I took a walk of medium difficulty down a track that includes steps. A 1.5 km walk to Weeping Rock and Fletchers Lookout with a climb of about 90 metres. Unfortunately I took a wrong turn from the top of Wentworth falls and started down the very steep National Pass Walk a described as difficult with many steps and ladders I was about 300 metres down when I decided to go back.
