Here is the link

I do... as it turns out I was supposed to be on foreign shores...but needed some surgery (a small Cancer, bening...thank Christ) hence a quick trip to the rock was do-able.

I agree with Ross. That is one of the most spectacular land/sky images I have ever seen!

Lovely work Peter, worth the time and effort to fly out there.

Very jealous of course!

Very nice Peter. I can see at least another camera coming your way with this lovely image. Maybe even the big one.
It doesn't come much more Australiana than this.

Davis is rather inscrutable, but I must admit, there's no doubting where the shot was taken

Thank you. It was a carefully planned shot, I even used google earth and the Sky 6 to work out where the moon would be in relation to the rock. Access roads around the rock made using a long lens impossible (more the pity) but I'm reasonably happy with the end result.

Great image Peter. I found it last week. Your route directory to your site is wide open.

Superbly crafted image and certainly would attract the attention of David. It even has a tree in it.

Would love to have an image like this myself.

Yes, it is. BTW I am aware the BRO root directory is free to browse around...I just don't advertise the fact
