I am scanning my back catalogue. Here is a selfie I took that is published in the book: To Save a Forest - Whirinaki.Page 62. "I walked along the Whirinaki Track for about 40 minutes and discovered this stand just off to the left. It was becoming dark and a strong wind had started to blow. I took one photograph from this angle but realised that unless I appeared in the scene as well, the scale of the huge trees would not be understood. The exposure was about 3 minutes at f32, so, after setting open the shutter, I wandered around behind the tree on the right and held a pose for two minutes before walking back to the camera."
