October '18 Photo Comp- View from a Lookout

This months photo comp topic was chosen by our September winner VK2FMIA

View from a Lookout

I think every member on here would have taken photos from lookouts and there should be some really good entries.


Remember to follow the rules shown in pink below.


Regards
TPC

The view of the beach from the lookout a few metres from our bedroom. Just us here, & the beach all to ourselves for the duration of the wet season. Nearest neighbours are about 6kms walk along the beach or 20kms drive along sandy tracks.

160kms north of Broome, 25kms/35 minutes to Beagle Bay until the rains arrive & cut off the 'back road', then 25kms/40 minutes to the bitumen (Cape Leveque Rd) & another 25kms into the community.
