Cerberus1 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Unfortunately missed the chance of a better photo on the way back down the same track. In with the camels were 4 wild boar - parents and 2 young. The advanced warning of the noise of the engine though and lack of a zoom lens meant I couldn't get a piccy of them.

starlight7 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 You can't beat the Queensland Outback, can you? Earlier this year we went up past the Flinders Ranges and around Lake Eyre ( South Australia) - fantastic but a lot of kms of nothing but saltbush to get there. Arkaroola was nice, a lot of wild life up there but again. a long way to travel. Enjoy the rest of your trip, it sounds fabulous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerberus1 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I bet you were devastated to have forgot the cameraI love mine with big zoom lens it's just fantastic for these sort of shots I've been reprimanded a couple of times over the past week for not having the camera to hand:laugh: , mainly when we've seen various bird life and the zoom would be a necessity. Missed a photo of a 'Crimson Chat' when we were in Winton, it's fair to say my better half wasn't impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blewyn Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Just found this thread and read the stuff about skids and bouncing on the graded roads. I think it is very important to make sure everyone who uses graded road understands - there is NO guarantee that the road is smooth. Just because you cruised along at 80kmh for the last 20mins doesn't mean that the next 1km is also smooth - you have to moderate your speed and keep a sharp lookout for holes and bumps, or find them the hard way.

This is true , we often comment that driving on our local 'dirt' road that its similar to driving in snow,, its constantly changing and requires alot of concentration.

Guest Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 stars are great!:biggrin: I always love seeing the sky at night in the southern hemisphere. Quite different to the northern hemisphere. I was totally lost though when I first started trying to star gaze in Aus as I had no reference point and didn't recognise anything anywhere up there. Thankfully my husband was able to give me some pointers and I managed to learn to recognise a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobj Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 stars are great!:biggrin: Well said, mate. Nothing better than to lie down, look up and see the constellations, shooting stars and satellites as they all go by. Well done with the photo of the full moon.<label for="rb_iconid_14"></label> Cheers, Bobj. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
