My son David and I spent a week together hiking and photographing Uluru and Kings Canyon. We just finished exploring, or better said getting an overview of the MacDonnell Range on the way to Alice Spring. David leaves me to return to Melbourne. We had an awesome time and fortunately he took some grab shots of the two of us. Thanks David for a wonderful time!
The MacDonnell Range runs east west and the drive took us through a valley between seams in the rock. There are many photographic opportunities. An interesting spot is a seam of ochre rock with several dominant colours; red, yellow, white. It is a special spot for Aboriginals to collect and crush ochre for their art.
I’m on the way to Katherine and the “top end”. A great spot to stop is at the Devil’s Marbles which is a surreal formation of geometric rock shapes. Onward.
