PHOTO OF THE MONTH ARCHIVES
2022


Friends have asked me why I haven't kept an archive of my Photographs of the Month since I commenced putting them up some 10 years ago. Well, I have considered doing this for some time and in 2016 and the 10th anniversary of the first photo feature I decided to include each month's photograph. Sadly I kept no records of previous top pics prior to 2016, most unlike me, but enjoy this section of the website, you never know if you've been featured, or one of your photographs is inluded.

Photographs taken by P. Ellis unless noted


  January: Pigeonhouse Mountain is a popular destination for walkers on the South Coast of NSW and the climb to the summit is one of the "Must Do" walks for any bushwalker or hiker. The photograph above shows the recently installed new ladder system that takes you to the top after taking a long steep climbing track from the car park. Photo courtesy of B. Shelvey.

February: Stephen takes a well-earned snooze after reaching the summit of Mount Gingera in the Brindabellas near Canberra
