Two more fantastic photos Phil ...the first one particularly, would make for a great travel brochure. Thanks for that.  Azrael |

The Spotted Gums are well known along the east coast of Australia,from Qld to Vic to abt.400m altitude, and in varying soils types. In the Shoalhaven in particular, they occur naturally in almost mono-specific stands and grow to very tall trees. In the Wollongong region they are almost absent, excepting for two defined, but remotely located pockets, at Coniston and Corrimal (although there are planted specimens dotted throughout the region). Here they only grow to ~20m tall. The spotted trunks are unmistakeable, but not dissimilar to Angophora costata in some respects. Attached photo west of Nowra (Shoalhaven River area). I know this area was fired 6 years ago...so there is extraordinary sapling regrowth occurring (mostly spotted gum). The tree at centre, with patchy orange bark is E.punctata...and the few Allocasuarina are A.littoralis. The tree with dark bark is Corymbia gummifera. I had to undertake a bushfire resolution for this site.............  Made sure all the E.puntctata's were retained .....because it is habitat for sugar gliders (the ideal max. glide distance is ~30m). Last edited by azrael; 23rd December 2007 at 08:08 AM.

Shaggs, I'm not actually an arborist; not even much of a gardener. My biggest moment came the other day when I took out a troublesome clump of Dutch irises. |

BUT you are a very good photographer They are really excellent subject photos...keep them coming  ...Arborists at work sometimes dont get to stop long enough to frame up like you have done. ...I have over 2.5GIG of photos but most ar'nt worth a crumpet. |

Nice pics, i like maculata's. Would be nice to see them naturally occurring. Have a decent size one to prune at a school next week or so.

Do you have the first piccy' in a larger resolution phil? All up of Tree Work/Arboriculture I probably have about 40 gigs of pics spread over my mum's hardrive, my personal hardrives and my laptop... I have heaps of pics I could put up but I prefer to spread them out  Doesn't help that my camera is 7.8MP's and takes each photo at 4mb, with a 1gb xd memory card - so everytime I unload it that's one whole gig'
