Tasmania, Australia Nestled in the lap of Cradle Mountain in Tasmania, this classic Aussie shack endures the seasons with weary resignation. It whispers of days gone by, and I could almost see the old digger at night, sitting by the fire and boiling up his billy. In the early morning light, the scene takes on a surreal, almost painted quality, and in a cover of low lying fog, the settlers retreat holds tight to its secrets.
