I came back to visit this image a number of times - magnificent work Grahame.

What other shots have you got from the area?
How long did it take to drive there? Where did you stay?

This beautiful image is now IOTW.

Thanks for IOTW Mike!

I have a few more, will post up later tonight.
Stayed out near Forrest and surrounding region, a decent 4x4 would be needed to go any further, as i found the softroader (late model mitsubishi outlander) i took had its limits Drive took 22 hours from perth which was a mission in its self.
Set up tents the whole way and had supplies all planned out for the week. Def something I want to do again, it was such a nice break from the stresses of everyday life.

Yeh a great star trails shot that, usually need to include the SCP to prevent them from being boring but not in this case, the switch from nearly south to nearly north creates a great effect and the subtle colours are beautiful.
