Tasmania and Sydney – latest stock at 4Corners Images...
"Large parts of the unspoilt Tasmanian wilderness enjoys reserve, National Park or World Heritage Site status. In the last decade or so it has become an increasingly cool place to escape to and explore, especially for its neighbours on mainland Australia who affectionately call it “Tassie”.
