The Legend
_The Aboriginal dream-time legend has it that three sisters, ‘Meehni’, ‘Wimlah’ and Gunnedoo’ lived in the Jamison Valley as members of the Katoomba tribe.
These beautiful young ladies had fallen in love with three brothers from the Nepean tribe, yet tribal law forbade them to marry.
The brothers were not happy to accept this law and so decided to use force to capture the three sisters causing a major tribal battle.
As the lives of the three sisters were seriously in danger, a witchdoctor from the Katoomba tribe took it upon himself to turn the three sisters into stone to protect them from any harm. While he had intended to reverse the spell when the battle was over, the witchdoctor himself was killed. As only he could reverse the spell to return the ladies to their former beauty, the sisters remain in their magnificent rock formation as a reminder of this battle for generations to come._

Nice one David. I like the rays of light coming in over the cliffs in the foreground and how the low cloud is casting dark shadows in the background.

Very nice capture; I love the movement of the sunlight and the clouds, which appear to be crossing each other in opposite directiosn. The wide framing is a nice way to present that movement.

Excellent david… great work ridding the view of the touristic elements nearby, and giving it that “wilderness” feel. Love the clouds and mood and light.
