Self Similar

The architecture of the bush in western Queensland.

Ancient Rock Pillars

These ancient pillars of cap rock on the edge of the Jump-Up at the AAOD Museum of Natural History are very old. And despite their appearance, are completely unsuitable for climbing due to their crumbly, fragmenting nature.

Reception View

Along the Deep Gully Track you will get a view back to the Reception building.

Deep Gully Track

The Deep Gully Walking Track at the AAOD Museum of Natural History is a great way to see a little more of the local scenery. But be careful, it is a rough track with lots of loose crumbly rock.

Sunset's Rays

Sunset

Another spectacular western sunset in Winton.

Flower

A very pretty flower in the desert heat of Winton, outback Queensland.

Crater Ponds

Some crater ponds on the edge of the Gondwana Stars Observatory at the Australian Age of Dinosaurs Museum of Natural History in Winton. These smooth craters are actually regmaglypts, sculpted hollows mimicking the regmaglypts in the surface of a meteorite that has been ablated by heat and friction entering Earth's atmosphere.

Outback Caravan

A genuine outback caravan of camels trots along the fence line. "Travelled all this way to get stopped by a fence!"

Jump-Up's Edge

At the very edge of the jump-up there really is a deep drop. I must get myself back here in a downpour to see the water falling over the edge.

Pond Life

While out collecting data from two of our Sky Quality Meters I came across these ponds in the rock. There were plenty of life forms happily existing in the temporary pools.

Scooter Ride

A scooter ride to get some exercise in the cool of morning before the heat arrives.
