Cudlee Creek to Kersbrook











Cudlee Creek and Kersbrook are small towns located in the Adelaide Hills. They lie along the Heysen Trail, separated by some 14km.

It's my first time along this section and I really enjoyed the walk. The weather was perfect (20C and sunny) and the trail was mainly fire tracks and trails through paddocks (private land). Some parts of the Heysen Trail utilise bitumen roads and are not so nice to walk on.

I surprised myself by taking 65 photographs in 3 hours - a personal best, in terms of quantity if not quality. We did this walk in the morning, but from a photographic perspective it warrants a walk in the afternoon light as well.

From month to month, I've be taking more people shots. I've always liked people shots, both taking them or viewing the handiwork of others. I suspect the walking group is getting used to my photographic endeavours and doesn't object [too strongly] to me taking a posed or candid image. The image with Kirsten is a mess-around shot to show just how windy the top of the hill was.

Come to think of it, every walk should be traversed in both directions and in the morning and afternoon light to create four photographic excursions!
