Drone
A ubiquitous sight at many large events these days is the drone camera. I snapped this one catching some footage of the four wheel drives climbing Big Red.

Sand Hill Climb
Part of the entertainment at the Big Red Bash involved watching many members of the public almost literally throw their expensive 4x4 rigs at the steep track up the Big Red sand dune. Some of the cars got a bit more of a bash than others. I remember hearing this land cruiser hit the bump stops on landing.

Moonrise
The Moon rises above a very low and flat plain 100 kilometres south of Boulia. The Moon is extremely orange because of the thick layers of atmosphere the Sun's light has to go through after reflecting from the Moon back to us.

Moon Trails
In this conjunction of Jupiter and Venus the four Galilean Moons, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, can be seen shepherding the gas giant across the sky. If you look closely you can see the apparently slightly wavy paths of the moons. This is due to atmospheric turbulence altering the path of light from the moons as it passes through Earth's atmosphere.
