Here is another photo from our trip to Tasmania last month. When we arrived at Dove Lake, everything was shrouded in thick fog, and we could barely see across the lake. By the time we completed the walk around Dove Lake, the fog had cleared, and there was sunshine and a blue sky.

The Dove Lake Circuit, a walking trail around Dove Lake, right next to Cradle Mountain, is a great way to explore the wide variety of flora in the area. The trail is a relatively easy walk, and will take approximately two hours to complete.

The trail ranges from a gravel path through low scrub to a wooden walkway bolted to the side of a rockface, to a wooden boardwalk through a temperate rainforest, with lots to see on the way.

Amazing how clear the water is - it mustn't be easy to capture that in a photo without glare and reflection; is there a technique or filter you used to pull that off?

A circular polarising filter works wonders for reducing reflections on water in photos like this.
