Orange lichen, rocks, Tidal River, Wilson’s Promontory National Park, Victoria, Australia.

Orange lichen and rocks reflect in the tannin-stained water of Tidal River at Wilson’s Promontory National Park in the warm glow of sunset light in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia. Natural tannins leached from decomposing vegetation turn the water brown. Drive two hours from Melbourne to reach Wilson’s Promontory, or “the Prom,” which offers natural estuaries, cool fern gullies, magnificent and secluded beaches, striking rock formations, and abundant wildlife.
