VH-KDK Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I had a weeks holiday in this area 14 years ago and seeing Gerold's wonderful series I thought it was time to take another look at this area but from the air this time. 1. Gympie Airport. 2. It is 10 km south of Gympie and is passed by the A1(Road number only, as many users regard it as a goat track!)Bruce Hwy. 3. Lagoon Pocket, Kybong and Gilldora are three localities around the airport. 4. Now heading east after flying over Gympie. A gold mining town which saved Queensland from bankruptcy in the late 1800s.It sits on the Mary River. 5. Near Greens Creek. 6. At Coondo with Lake Cootharaba. 7. Cooloola Grove with Cooloola Village Airpark. Tin Can Bay is on the right. 8. The town of Tin Can Bay. The name is thought to be from the indigenous word Tuncanbar for the Dugongs that swim in the area. 9. Inskip Point is on the right and the start of Fraser Island on the left. A small vehicular ferry crosses to the island. 10. Kauri Creek. Thanks for the inspiration Gerold. All straight vees with minimal cropping.

Mallard Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 A very fine set! Gympie is not only worth a visit in OZx'd Orbx-land, but also in "the real world" (I've heard that there is something like that...). I stopped over there on my visit to Oz six years ago, when the big market was held and was quite taken by the whole place and atmosphere... You captured it well, Martyn.

Stillwater Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Top notch set, Martyn, plus great explanations (well, you know the places better than I do....). And, as always, a certain flight level is required to avoid blurry scenery - that is the reason why we need to convince JV to initiate AU 2.0... .

I think JV is presently working on world domination, looking forwards to OLC for Asia. A very fine set!
