These images were taken by myself, on my first trip to Healesville and the Reservoir, on October 5, 1957.

A mate (see him in View 10!) and I had made the journey by train, then hiked to the Reservoir Park.

The day was sunny!

The photos were taken on my Voightlander Vito-B 35 mm camera, using Agfacolor slide film. The images you see here are scanned versions of those color slides, with some digiital enhancements to restore the original colors which had faded somewhat.
