Pools reflections, Central Australia

These images are from Uluru, Kata Tjuta and and Kings Canyon. It is nice to know that there are some permanent water holes in this arid area. Once I noticed the reflections in the water I kept my eye out for more and was lucky enough to find some very interesting images. Central Australia was quite different than what I expected and I had a great time there.

A Poinciana at Whycliffe Well

It could be a Poinciana but that's not the matter. The tree, with its large seed pods, looked very artistic in the early morning sunrise. Though it's not a picture that you would expect to see from Whycliffe Well, the UFO capital of Australia. There is only a camping ground there which has the largest selection of beers in Australia. Maybe that's what accounts for all the UFO sightings. Although with no light pollution, the night sky is amazing, something most city dwellers rarely get to see.
