Here are some pictures i took from the Iron Range NP, and the travel up 8 days total... being Winter it would be the best time to do a herping trip lol, spending only a handfull of days in the NP its self the drive up was just as exciting, well once you get out of ****ty weather SEQLD, i decided not to upload habitat shots and landmarks or Info on every animal to this thread, main reasion is it would take to much time to look through every photo i took, heres a few i flicked through this afternoon.

Wow, these are some bloody great photos! I now know where I want to go for a holiday, haha. FNQ looks amazing.
 
That's a cool pic of the leaf tail. In fact there all good thanks for sharing.
 
Fantastic shots Shane, thanks for sharing. Looks like you had a great trip seeing plenty of critters.
 
That looks AWESOME! Take me with you next time? I'm going there as soon a possible, do you think you were lucky or is it like your tripping over these animals?
 
Great pics as always Shaney, some great finds too.

Especially like the V.scalaris and N.galgajuga
 
Yeah it makes life alot easyer.....:rolleyes: but your never going to get of your high horse about that 1st green, even know i found the second one... are you's!. And yes i do 100% aggree Stephens pictures are better than mine, but i had spent as much on my camera gear as him i would have a decent chance at being on par.. giveing the fact i dident have proper lighting nor used anything but a 18-55mm lense makes it hard to get photos to be proud of, + these are photo's i choose to put on APS do you rely think i'd put my best photos on a public fourm....
Bullshite was way cooler anyway.

Ps. i wasn't sleeping.


Herping is pretty easy when you just lay in your tent and sleep while we find things for you to take pictures of hay?
 
Great photos thanks for sharing some of your photo collection, l sure love the photos of the Merterns Water Monitor & Green Tree Pythons.
 
I like that pic from a distance of the mertens.....nice one.
