Cinematic Glasshouse Mountains - full moon & sunrise

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Talented content creator and pilot Oz Straya Panoramas used an Autel Lite drone to create this fantastic aerial view of Australia's Glass House Mountains. The range consists of a series of 13 peaks which rise from the coastal plain of the state of Queensland, just inland from the Sunshine Coast area. While their maximum altitude is a modest 1.8k ft. above sea level (a little over 550 meters), the Glass House Mountains appear to be significantly taller due to their immediate sea level surroundings.

Morning twilight saw a full moon setting in the west, followed by a colourful sunrise.

It was another beautiful morning to fly near Mount Coonowrin.

Mount Coonowrin is one of the peaks of the Glass House Mountains. It is easily distinguished by its rocky formation at the top. It is also known by its unofficial name, Crookneck.

The Glass House Mountains are a cluster of thirteen hills that rise abruptly from the coastal plain on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. The highest hill is Mount Beerwah at 556 metres above sea level, but the most identifiable of all the hills is Mount Tibrogargan which from certain angles bears a resemblance to a face staring east towards the ocean.

The Glass House Mountains are located near Beerburrum State Forest and Steve Irwin Way. From Brisbane, the mountains can be reached by following the Bruce Highway north and taking the Glass House Mountains tourist drive turn-off onto Steve Irwin Way. The trip is about one hour from Brisbane.

The volcanic peaks of the Glass House Mountains rise dramatically from the surrounding Sunshine Coast landscape. They were formed by intrusive plugs, remnants of volcanic activity that occurred 26-27 million years ago. Molten rock filled small vents or intruded as bodies beneath the surface and solidified into land rocks. Millions of years of erosion have removed the surrounding exteriors of volcanic cores and softer sandstone rock.

Whilst the traditional names for the hills themselves are very old, the term 'Glasshouse Mountains' was given more recently by explorer Lieutenant James Cook on 17 May 1770. The peaks reminded him of the glass furnaces in his home county of Yorkshire. Matthew Flinders explored the area and climbed Mount Beerburrum after sailing along Pumicestone Passage in 1799. The Glass House Mountains National Landscape was added to the Australian National Heritage List on 3 August 2006.
