Sand Dune Country (In the Australian Outback)

National Parks in Australia

I love the colours in this photo they take me to the Outback, no matter where I am…

What do you reckon?

    Your blue skies remind me of Colorado… the sky isn’t as blue here in California. 😦

    And if you consider doing a coffee table book (which you should), let me know… I’ll do the layout for you. 🙂 I may be going to culinary school and might’ve quit my job as a claims adjuster, but I did own a graphic design business and have done four coffee table books of my own photos.

      Wonderful, and I will do that for sure…! I like the idea of it, in fact I am doing a couple of larger forays into the desert over the next 6-8 months with a view to collecting enough (good shots) for such a project…

      Seemingly, climbing is on the back burner for me at present..

    Fab pic! If you consider doing coffee table books check out Artisan State, they do have the most beautiful products!

    Great shot. That colour is exactly how I think of the outback.

      Well the early explorers’ went in search of an “inland sea” and this is what they found, mostly!

    Spectacular! For someone used to relatively subdued (but still impressive) landscapes, it’s hard to believe it’s even real. 😉

    Great photo! Some places just have a certain intensity to them. This is one such place. I can feel the dry heat on my skin and the grit of that lovely outback sand in my shoes. But most of all this photo conjures up the immensity of the blue sky overhead. Thanks for taking me on this journey from the USA to the outback, which I’ve not been to in over 20 years.
