Rainforest to Reef - Frankland Islands, Far North Queensland

Rainforest to Reef is an aerial photograph capturing the remarkable meeting point of ecosystems at the Frankland Islands in Far North Queensland. Lush green tropical rainforest stretches across the upper frame, flowing seamlessly into a pristine sandy shoreline where weathered driftwood and large fallen trees are scattered along the beach. Just offshore, gentle waves lap the coast before giving way to vibrant fringing coral reefs only metres from the shore. This striking composition highlights the rare and fragile transition from rainforest to reef, showcasing the extraordinary biodiversity of Australia’s tropical coastline.
