The Tablelands is a fertile plateau which is part of the Great Dividing Range in Queensland. It is located west to south-south-west inland from Cairns. It's a tropical latitude the elevated position provides a climate suitable for dairy farming. It has an altitude ranging between 500 and 1,280m (1,640 and 4,200 ft).
As we travelled along the winding road to get to the Tableland there were places designated for viewing and taking photos.
From now on I'm using my new lens.
You can just see the winding road below.
There is a farm house in that cleared green area.
Came across a lake and accommodation plus ducks.
The Church was beautifully kept in a small town on the way to Atherton.
The view on the way back down from another way.
Margaret winding road is fantastic and I love a small church. Love from Bytom..
ReplyDeleteCute Church Gosia - it was locked so couldn't see inside...
DeleteWas a very windy road but we have plenty of those here in Tasmania.

Deletenice places
ReplyDeleteYes Adam, lovely.
DeleteWonderful views.
ReplyDeleteGood to see in reality as the camera doesn't always show it as we see it.
DeleteBreathtaking! I get the feeling it was hard to pick the right picture. There was so much more to see. Thanks for this
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome. Very peaceful up there amongst the greenery.
DeleteWas hard to choose a photo to show on my blog, they were all lovely of the 'view'.
It's all so green and in so many shades. I like the lake, it's a good sized one.
ReplyDeleteThe church is very pretty.
Well kept Church...there are so many shades of green without the clouds creating more.
DeleteA beautiful part of Australia and you have captured it well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diane...love it up that way.
DeleteLove these landscapes, and the hills or I think they are mountains, are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe hills are called mountains up there for they are high enough to be classed as mountains. To me, mountains should have lots of rocks on them :)
DeleteNice duck. The church looks great and the bell tower next to it is interesting.
ReplyDeleteWas a very friendly duck and most are where people are a lot.
DeleteI expect there is a story to that bell tower - it's a well kept Church.
Bom dia, lindas paisagens de verde, as fotos são maravilhosas.
ReplyDeleteAG
Thank you AG...it's a lovely place there.
Deletewow, so green and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is and is always I believe.
DeleteGreat pictures, especially that quaint little church.
ReplyDeleteLove your header, the outcroppings reminds me of giant prehistoric crocodiles.
Enjoy your day:)
The Church looks as if it was restored.
DeleteThank re header, that is a photo I took the other day of Rocky Cape here in Northern Tasmania which is a National Park.
Beautiful landscapes and beautiful duck.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob.
DeleteGreat job as always, Margaret. Some day I think you should put all this in a book called "A Camper's Guide to Australia." It will be a runaway best seller!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure someone has already done that David. Thanks for the compliment :)
DeleteHello Margaret,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures. Great to see that view over the amazing area.
Nice shot of that wonderful duck.
Best regards,
Marco
Thanks Marco - the duck was co-operative :)
