Glen Helen Gorge, Northern Territory - Part Two



 oops, wonder what it had belonged to?



 the late afternoon sun made for pretty highlights in the flowering grass-heads

 while shadows are getting longer

and, as was shown in my very first post from the Northern Territory --- here was the sun setting at one end of the gorge, and the moon showing at the other.

What gorgeous scenery! I love it when the sun and moon are both visible in the sky.

These are great photos Carole.
The setting sun and the moon on the other hand, I find this super.
Too bad about the egg that will not hatch.
Photo 3 is a beautiful landscape.

Fantastic photos Carole, the egg was strange, maybe was dropped by Dodo, oh I forget, that is from New Zealand, woops.

Bob Bushell said...

Wrong again, it was from Mauritius, sorry.

Such wild beauty in this place, and especially love the shots of the sunset and moon rise at the same time.
