  • In 1990 I Began to Look up at the Space of the Sky As Well As Down on the Sea
    "Clouds" (1990-93) In 1990 I began to look up at the space of the sky as well as down on the sea. Leaving behind the pinhole aperture but using filters on my camera to darken the sky and extend the exposure from seconds to minutes, the moving clouds were rendered as abstract blurs to my stationary lens. These pictures recall the pioneering work of Alfred Stieglitz, and his abstracted cloud photographs intended as music-like emotional metaphors. Unlike Stieglitz's images, which were very sharp, small 5'" x 4" contact prints, my long blurred exposures resulted in soft, dark, large 30" x 40" prints. The scale, softness, and darkness were an attempt to abstract the sense of space, moving the image away from a literal description of the sky - to create a pictorial void which the viewer could metaphorically enter. While Stieglitz championed the "straight" photograph, believing that his cloud photographs could be both highly descriptive and metaphoric "equivalents", I was less sure that the descriptive photograph could transcend the everyday world and speak to the spirit. I greatly wished to make pictures that evoked my emotional, and dare I say, my spiritual experience of landscape, and I hoped that by pushing the photograph to the abstract limits of ordinary description, I could shift the reading of the image from fact to idea, and advance Stieglitz's notion of the equivalent.

By 1993 James Danziger Gallery in New York had offered me an exhibition of the cloud pictures, and I did some additional work on the series in preparation for this, although my pictorial strategies did not change.

  • Part-3---A-Review-Of-The-Geoconservation-Values-Of-The-Tasmanian-WWHA.Pdf
    Recommendations and Issues Arising 4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS & ISSUES ARISING 4.1 Introduction This final section briefly draws out conclusions arising from the descriptions and discussions of the World Heritage geoconservation values of the TWWHA that have been provided in Section (3.0). In most cases, issues are only briefly highlighted or dot-pointed in this section, so as to provide a simple "check list" of key issues arising. Section (3.0) (and references therein) should be referred to for background details of the various issues and recommendations listed here. 4.2 Recommended Additions to the TWWHA Based on Geoconservation Values, and Areas for Further Consideration All of the 21 new reserves adjoining the TWWHA, as listed and described in Section (3.3) above, contain features or systems contributing substantially to one of more of the recognised TWWHA World Heritage geodiversity themes (see Section 3.3), and hence they are all recommended for inclusion in an extended Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area (TWWHA) boundary on this basis. It is additionally recommended that the Hastings Caves State Reserve – which immediately adjoins the Hastings Cave reserve extension that is one of the 21 new reserves recommended for inclusion in the TWWHA - be also incorporated within the TWWHA boundary owing to its possession of dolomite karst systems that are physically continuous with, as well-developed, and more accessible than those contributing to the Karst World Heritage geoconservation themes within the existing (and now contiguous) Southwest National Park / TWWHA (see Section 3.4). Significantly, this proposal would also add an important ongoing hydrothermal karst system to the TWWHA (see Section 3.4), which is a karst process that is at present poorly represented within the TWWHA, yet is an important element of Tasmania's karst geodiversity.

  • Scenery to Wilderness: National Park Development In
    SCENERY TO WILDERNESS National Park Development in Tasmania, 1916-1992 Louise Mendel BSc (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geography and Environmental Studies University of Tasmania June 1999 Declaration This thesis contains no material that has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any tertiary institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text. Louise Mendel Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying In accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Louise Mendel 9 June 1999 ABSTRACT National parks comprise a significant component of landscapes around the world. This thesis examines the development of the national park system in Tasmania from 1916 to 1992, with a particular emphasis on changing conservation motives and themes, and their expression in the reserve system. Part One of this thesis traces the creation of national parks in Tasmania over three major periods of reservation activity: the early period (1916- 1937); the middle period (1938-1970); and the late period (1971-1992). Historical evidence is used to identify: the reserve proponents and their motives; opposition to establishing reserves; the debates surrounding the creation of reserves; and the outcomes. A developmental narrative is given on the creation of national parks in each period, with a broader view of identifying the dominant conservation motives and themes and changes to these over time. Part Two of this thesis examines the representation of three major conservation attributes in national parks established across each period of reserve development.

Mountainous terrain is subject to rapid changes in weather, and higher elevations can experience snow at any time of the year. The terrain may be unstable and subject to rock-falls and other hazards. The Tasmanian countryside is home to three species of snakes, all of which are venomous and can be fatal, or lead to serious consequences. Other animals such as some spiders and ants can bite with potentially serious consequences. Some spiders carry venom that can lead to death. The Tasmanian bush is also home to Jack Jumper ants which have a bite that can cause anaphylactic shock in some people. Some people may suffer from conditions that cause those persons to enter shock from certain ants or wasp bites. The SOTA Management Team, the Australia – Tasmania Association and their officers shall not accept responsibility for any death, injury or liability in any form resulting from participation in SOTA activities within any state or territory within Australia or anywhere else in the world.
