The Pentecost River and Cockburn Range

[iceman (Mike)]

The Pentecost River crosses the Gibb River Road about an hour west of Kununurra. It's a major river crossing, about 60m wide, but quite shallow and safe during the dry season.

On the Western side of the crossing, looking back, we have the incredibly majestic Cockburn Ranges looming above.

It's a single pic, Canon 5D Mk 2 and Canon 24-105mm lens @ 65mm, ISO500, f/9, 1/1250s exposure.

Thanks Adam and Greg.

Greg, it's not the wind - it's the water during the wet season. I can imagine a huge flood of water running through there.
