Hey Mal,

wish the wife had let me take my camera though still impressed with these photos was great to see trees of this quality in the leaf (or bark if you prefer) was great inspiration and with a guide to point out little bits and pieces made my short quick visit a lot more enlightening, perhaps even educational ;)

cheers 2 Matt for making the effort to get me along and to all those who had a hand in the show
