Yup upload has definitely worked this time,
I'm not 100% certain, but the shrub-like plant looks to be one of our native grasses, I am thinking Austrostipa scabra (Corkscrew grass). There is also saffron thistle and Paterson's curse in the frame as well as a species of fleabane, all of which are invasives. :)
