Spent 10 days down in Victoria gold prospecting.  Found the going very tough with only 4 pieces found with my 5000 and 14 inch elite coil, must not have been walking over it!  Did enjoy myself despite the cold and those mozzies!  Got some nice shots as well - its always the complete picture that counts! The wildflowers were sensational and I challenged myself to capture as many different species as possible given that the old was hard going!

Nice gold and nice pics there Willo. Q38 Q38

You must be made of solid stuff to be able to put up with ten days up there in conditions as they have been recently, that's for sure.

Sounds like you had a great time all round and it is good to see the place when wild flowers etc. are at there best.

Wow, those stars are amazing. It's a shame when you go to so much effort to travel so far and only get a few bits but the whole overall experience is worth it sometimes. Thanks for sharing.
