Litchfield Walks

FF
We took the Table Top Track West of Florence Falls for about 15 Km return and not only enjoyed a remote water fall but also a few hours of a peaceful transition to an environment which has only been worn away by time itself. A genuine set of plants with genuine seasonal events triggered by a natural flow. I seem to learn so much more about the seasonal rhythms which effect the daily patterns I am trying to record in staccato like sessions. When a location has running water throughout the year its flora seem to benefit with resultant green islands and corridors of both young and aging populations winding down the crevices amongst the rocky outcrops and uneven topography.
