Description

Lake King William in the central highlands of Tasmania is a man made lake with a dam wall that controls it's flow and I believe is the beginning of the Derwent river that runs some 100 miles south through to Hobart and to sea.
Because it is a managed lake, the water levels vary dramatically throughout the seasons, as this area is covered in winter snow the water flow rate through this rivulet changes immensely too.
I find when the lake is low the photography juices flow well and I am able to find plenty of imagery to exploit, this one is of the rivulet as it flows down from the mountains into the dammed lake.
If you have seen the haunting William Dafoe film "The Hunter" about the Tasmanian tiger, much of it was filmed in this area of Tassie, although officially extinct, many a reputed siting has occurred around this part of Tasmania.......
