    Something a little different

    We saw this unusual tree in The East McDonnell Ranges near Alice Springs.

    I have been looking at photos of previous trips and came across these pics of it.
    Hope you find it as interesting as we did.

    No doubt some of you will have seen it before and enjoy seeing it again.
    I added a pic of the gorge it was in as well.
    Don't you just love Australia, with places like this to visit.
    Hmm, I can feel another trip coming on!!

    Absolutely amazing, it looks almost like a land dwelling lilly pad, I have never seen anything like that.
    Not sure if you are able to notice the distinctive silver tinge in the tree but these were all along our travels from Isralite bay (near Esperance Wa) to Point Culver ( at the tip of the bight over looking Bilbunya dunes).

    Nice pic kr,
    They look really nice with that silver touch to them.

    They will be something to look for when we are over that way.

    Great shots Gav'. Love the 3rd one, the color and the landscape look amazing. Top shot!
    Did ya get a snap of yourself sittin on the Harley, MegaT would of for sure lol.
    Better get that windscreen seen too as well, you know what they say about chips, they soon spread and crack and before you know it, a cheap fix turns into a new windscreen.

    Hi Pete,
    No, didn't get a shot of me sitting on it!!
    Only thought of it afterwards, too busy taking pics.

    There is so many places like that gorge to photograph out there,that you are never stuck for something to take pics of.

    Got that chip courtesy of a Greyhound bus.
    Had to replace the screen when I sold that ute.
