Fraser Range Station. WA

What a magical place. Certainly not a place that should be bypassed. Spent three days here with Frangipani and these are a few of my favourite shots. There were so many, so just a few. If you do happen by there, make sure you take the time to do the 2plus hour walk to the top of the ridge. Dining room a lot of f...
