You can sell that to a stock photo agency and make a return on that shot I'm sure.
I can see it now on an Australian post card or a postage stamp.
Excellent work on all the shots.
Thanks Andrew, I'll look into that, as it could help pay for the camping fees or SD cards!

Cheers

Thanks Andrew, for the explanation and the link to the website – I can still see this extraordinary formation in my minds eye.

Thanks Mike - the camp was full of photo opportunities and I had a ball just pointing and shooting.

Being roused from slumber by the “tharrumpp, tharrumpp, tharrumpp ” of kangaroos bounding outside the tent, seemingly just by our heads, was initially quite unnerving. Next, hearing all the splish splash sploshing outside the back door, made us hurriedly unzip the tent flap, to be confronted by the gob smacking sight of these fella’s bounding across the lake, whose shallow depth we were oblivious off until then.

Your creative eye for photography looks fine to me
Thanks Ian - I used x4 1G SD cards, so I was pleased that I had some keepers from the 300+ photos I took over the week. I'll look into the stock photo suggestion as every penny helps in this expensive hobby of ours!

Cheers
