Freycinet National Park Photo Gallery by Kah Kit Yoong at pbase.com

Freycinet National Park

Freycinet is one of the most visited national parks in Australia. It is found on the east coast of the island state of Tasmania. The jewels of the park are Wineglass Bay, a perfect crescent of white sand against turquoise water, recognised as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and the Hazards, 3 massive granite peaks that shelter the peninsula. After several visits to Freycinet I had a vision of the place different from photos I had seen of the place. Using slow shutter speeds in low lighting conditions I have attempted to create a surreal world with an element of fantasy.

Ever met someone of the name Freycinet? NO ? Few people have. Well I have. read on: VISIT BY THE LAST OF THE FREYCINETS Henri and Luis de Freycinet were navy officers with the Baudin Expedition which explored and mapped parts of Australia from 1801 to 1804. The Baudin Expedition charted unmapped portions of the south coast of Australia and Tasmania at the same time as Matthew Flinders, leading to their famous meeting at Encounter Bay on 8 April 1801. As a result of the expedition Louis de Freycinet produced the first complete map of Australia, the Freycinet Map, which was published in 1811 as part of the Freycinet Atlas. Flinders wasn’t able to publish his famous map naming our continent as “Australia” until 1814 because he had been held a prisoner in Mauritius for six years. Yes held prisoner by the French. Henry de Freycinet, a young French navy petty officer, and his sister Katharine, are the last living descendants with the name De Saulces de Freycinet. Henry de Freycinet just visited Australia in pursuit of his family’s history and heritage. The Chair of the Australia on the Map Division of The Australian Hydrographic Society (AOTM/AHS), Rupert Gerritsen and its Secretary, the writer of this copy, aware that Henry was coming and his singular connection to Australian history, managed to arrange a series of meetings and events with key individuals and institutions for him. In Sydney, Henry was greeted by Bill Fairbanks of the Matthew Flinders Society who took him to the Australian maritime Museum and the State Library of New South Wales where Map Curator Paul Brunton showed him a collection of Freycinet maps. The visit was reported in the local media. In Canberra, Henry met AHS Patron, Vice Admiral Chris Ritchie, AHS and IFHS President Paul Hornsby, and French Deputy Ambassador Bruno Pierre Bisson, at the National Library on the 6 December. The Curator of Maps, Dr Martin Woods, had arranged a display of Freycinet maps, the Atlas and other pictures relating to the Baudin Expedition, which Henry enthusiastically examined. Dr Woods explained some of the intricate details of the rare maps while a colleague, Linda Groom from the National Library’s Pictorial Collection, explained the historic significance of the rare wildlife pictures and other graphic material. The Chair and Secretary, as well as other members of the Australia on the Map Division, also attended. This event received prominent coverage by The Canberra Times and Henry was interviewed by ABC Radio for a prime time show. Henry is now visiting Western Australia where a similar program of encounters with Freycinet history and influential figures, arranged through AOTM connections there, took place. Although almost 200 years may have passed since Henry’s forebear produced his famous map, found the pewter Hartog/Vlamingh plate etc, nevertheless that history is alive and well, embodied in the person of Henry de Freycinet. Henry managed to stir a rise in interest of Australian-French history. Peter Reynders pbreynders@yahoo.com.au Dec 2007
