Millaa Millaa falls was a 'must see' location on our recent visit to Cairns. It was actually quite a drive from Cairn city centre. My wife and I both felt a bit car sick while heading up the range to get there. On the way we stopped at Nerada Tea factory at Malanda. On the way home we ate a nice burger at a local cafe in Millaa Millaa.

I was fortunate that when we arrived there was 2 mini buses full of people at the falls. Everybody left apart from a family and another couple. This allowed me to take two photos of the falls without any people in! I then decided to put my polariser on and take a few more shots. By the time I had changed film and put the polariser on two more bus loads of people came! I still took two shots but under exposed them due to the polariser. It wasn't ideal weather for photographing a waterfall (harsh midday sun) but it was the only opportunity I had...and I enjoyed it!
