Thought I'd test the new camera at King Soloman Caves near Deloraine in Tasmania.. Took over 120 photos with and without flash (mostly on auto) with pleasing results .. here are just a selection reduced to less than 16% of the original size.. The last one is a shot of the road on the way home...

The road + scenery looks lovely.
Makes the drive home even more pleasant.

It's the only thing I can still remember from Geology.

We also have Marakoopa Caves which are close to the ones in these photos and in the south we have Hastings Caves which are even larger :D

down Rusty's way are some cave very similar to those called the buchan caves. :mrgreen:
Down my way??? :whistler:
Steve, you do realise they are something like 280 kilometres from my place?... :p
Been to Hastings Caves a few times, Daz....and while they are pretty amazing, I think Buchan Caves are even better..... :p
Oh, and thanks Daz & Steve for fixing things so I could post... :D

But the real surprise is at Wellington in NSW, just south east of Dubbo.
There's just a pretty unobtrusive sign. I went in there one day when I was travelling for work and ahead of schedule.
It's like an almost flat plain and virtually only a few hundred meters off the highway.
Underground they open up into an awesome complex - not Jenolan Caves standard but all the more spectacular for the blandness of the surrounding countryside.

Was an admission free into that cave?
Post by: Dazzler on February 09, 2012, 09:47:57
I think maybe A$12 maximum each including a guide to explain and show us around :goodjob:
