All photos copyright Doug Spencer, taken on morning of March 23, 2018.
This morning was a magical combination of wilderness extending to the horizon (and beyond) in all directions, almost perfectly still, almost cloudless air, and clean, tannin-darkened waters.
Click here to see a map of Port Davey and Bathurst Harbour; on that morning we were in the southeastern section of Bathurst Harbour.

At the centre of the above image is the entry to Moulters Inlet; the photo was taken from near the northern side of Bathurst Harbour.
The image below was taken an hour later, looking in the opposite direction, from just inside Moulters Inlet.


The banks and slopes above are a “mosaic” of grassland, “bush”, and forest.




As a future post will reveal, the previous day’s late afternoon and early evening were altogether different, but equally sublime.
