Conglomerate

Some conglomerate rocks, that make up bigger rocks, that constitute part of Telstra Hill, just east of town.

Greenery

The green shoots of fresh spinifex clumps reaching to the sky from the red rocky ground.

Rainy Veil

A quick trip to the lake and a shower hit. The veil of rain was unusually dense and a very refreshing sight.

Cumulonimbus

By George, Columbus, a cumulonimbus! One cloud to avoid if you happen to be flying in the air and don't want some serious turbulence.

Townsville

The view in a very green suburb of Townsville.

Outback Valentine's

The weather can provide some wonderful pastel colours, even for Valentine's day. Happy Valentine's day y'all.

Flow

The pleasant flow of water over stones is one of the most beautiful sounds to be heard anywhere on Earth. Here in a drought ridden desert, it is even more special.

Water In The Hole

Warrigal waterhole has water in it for the first time in over a year, thanks to some recent rains.

Where's Wallaby?

See if you can find the wallaby hidden in this photo.

Precipitation

There is rain falling from the sky. While far from drought breaking, it's refreshing to have something other than dust collecting on the leaves.

Bed In The Bush

A bed in the bush is worth two in the home? Only kidding. This bed is not particularly comfortable in its old age. However, it looks right at home resting out in the bush near the abandoned King Solomon mine.

Rock

Some smooth rock at Rigby Falls that has been worn by water each time the rains fall. Unfortunately there has been no wet season this year, or last, to help continue the polishing of the rock.

Flowing Water

This is the first decent rain to fall on Mount Isa in the last two years. A visit to the Three Steps (Cascades / Three Sisters) revealed a wonderful sight. However, one must be careful, as the creek rose while we were watching the stream flow and temporarily cut us off from returning home.

Self Referential

A partly self referential photo. In this photograph, you can see the rain clouds on the horizon. On the phone you can see an image of those rain clouds as the red-yellow blotch, as it is seen by the Mount Isa weather radar tower that you can also see in the background of the photo.

Afternoon Reflection

A reflective Lake Moondarra water surface in the afternoon sun.

Paddling In The Cloud

A great sunset paddle at Lake Moondarra with some spectacular reflections.
