About the presentation

Behind the Lens - Strickland: An online photographic exhibition.

As a landscape photographer, Shayne Leslie's images are rich and detailed, immersing you into their beauty. She has taken thousands of pictures of the state forest since 2011. Shayne will share the story behind the pictures showing the exceptionally diverse forest habitats from wildflowers and dry heat woodland, tall Eucalypts through to lush rainforest. On the way you will learn a little about photography.
