Banks Walls and Frank Hurley Head

After another night shift I got a few hours sleep, drove into the city for some shopping and then headed up to Burralow Creek in the Blue Mountains to camp. After a cold night I packed up quick and drove to Mt Banks. A very windy and cold day. Wind gusts were actually pushing me around as I was walking. I decided to not climb over Mt Banks because of the wind but walked around it and out to banks Walls and then on to Frank Hurley Head.

The Banks Walls 

Panorama from the Walls Lookout. Taken with my Tokina lens at 16mm. Not sure why the curve distortion. Possibly the lens,but hasn't done this before, or more probably the wind blowing the camera and me around as I took the photos. 

On the track from Banks Walls towards Frank Hurley Head, with Mt Hay in the distance.

Two stitched panorama with the Samyang 8mm. I was surprised how well these stitched without distortion.
