RE: Sunsets over the old Cape St George lighthouse.
Awesome picture and photoshop work!
Wow that's amazing that so much tragedy has converged on that one small point, it's a bit like the Bermuda triangle in a weird intangible way. I wonder if the place had any aboriginal significance and if they thought of it as cursed or to be inhabited by bad spirits or anything similar.
Thanks very much @khufu. I haven't found any information suggesting anything like that but it would not surprise me. There is an Aboriginal community at Wreck Bay within Booderee National Park and the whole area is very important to them.
I actually had another creepy experience in the National Park one night after being out shooting sunset. I had ridden out to one of the secluded headlands on my mountain bike and left it quite late to ride back as I only had an average head torch on me and it was already dark. Anyway long story short I was riding passed one of the other paths that lead off the one I was on and as I looked down it I swear I saw this dark ghostly figure, needless to say I kept riding eyes straight ahead and pins and needles ran up my spine. Proper spooked me!
So i'm certain there is a lot of Indigenous history in the park other than what is obvious, I've really wanted to have a chat with some of the elders of the community and see what they know but I haven't ran into any so far.
@kunschj thought you would find this interesting also and thanks so much for the tip! and your kind words!
The picture alone was amazing, but the history and your spooky experience really fascinate me.
