The Beauty of Obscurity | Lorne's Forgotten Waterfall

In this episode, I explore two very different waterfalls in Victoria’s Otways — one iconic, one hidden in plain sight — each revealing their own mood, rhythm, and connection to nature. We begin at Erskine Falls, where power and grandeur roll through the valley long before the water comes into view. I create a massive vertical panorama at a 1/10 scale that reveals hidden layers of texture, flow, and light — including a faint rainbow drifting across the falls. Note: During the panorama sequence, some of the on-location audio takes a hit as it's drowned out by the roar of the waterfall — but that’s part of the experience of photographing in these conditions. Then we wander deeper into the forest along the Erskine River, taking a short walk that leads us to Straw Falls, a gentle cascade that many overlook. This is a journey exploring the beauty in the obscure places we rarely notice or ignore because the grandeur appears less deserving of the effort. If you enjoy landscape photography, peaceful journeys, and nature stories, I hope this one resonates. Shot on location around Lorne, Great Otway National Park.
