Muogamarra Nature Reserve near Cowan offers photogenic bushland on the Sydney side of the Hawkesbury: wet sclerophyll forest, creeks and gullies, and glimpses toward the river system. Best light comes after rain (fresh greens, mist) and at sunrise/sunset. Access is via the Field Studies Trail—book/confirm any ranger permissions; parking is limited near trailheads, and tracks can be muddy in wet weather.
