Bridge at Pot Alley Gorge

Bridge at Pot Alley Gorge

The mid West Australian coast around Kalbarri is particularly rugged and the constant action of wind, waves, and tides over many millions of years have created several stunning coastal gorges as well as three or four amazing creations. This bridge is one such creation and is only visible at low tide. In this photo the setting sun was bouncing off the rocks behind me and creating a most wonderful setting that I and a couple of other photographers were taking full advantage of. Kalbarri is a popular fishing cum holiday township 150 kms north of Geraldton and getting on for 600 kms north of Perth. As well as it’s coastal gorges it is also famed for some stunning river gorges

    WOW Peter! This is a spectacular shot. Have fond memories of Kalbarri. Is that lovely fountain still outside the pub? Rode my bike up there once…..downfall was it overheated in the rain and had to put it on a truck to get there. Trip back to Perth was fine

  • georgieboy98 replied

    Hi Claire. It’s amazing how very often we don’t see that which is right under our noses and I honestly can’t say that I have ever noticed the fountain! Shall have a closer look next time we are up that way. Thanks for the visit and comment. Peter.

    OH MY, a fabulous sunset to an waesome, stunning view!

  • georgieboy98 replied

    Hello Eye and very many thanks. I think scenes like this are regular occurrences to the locals so they don’t think anything of them – consequently when we got back to the B&B and raved over this no one seemed particularly interested! LOL Peter

    Simply outstanding image mate, a fave for sure : )

  • georgieboy98

    georgieboy98

    Hi Alf and it’s great to meet you. Thanks very much for dropping in and leaving such kind comments. I actually wanted to get the sun coming through the arch of the bridge but my wife vetoed the idea when I explained that it would mean clambering down almost to water level. Seems that more than one person has been swept off those rocks! Anyway, the thought was there! LOL Peter

  • Raquel Bourne

    Raquel Bourne

    Wow this is quite simply beautiful!

  • georgieboy98 replied

    Very many thanks Raquel. This was taken a few years ago when access to where I was standing was not easy. Since those days it has been improved and is now a piece of cake. Peter

    Yummy!! Right up my alley!!! Sharp and crisp image with delightful rich color!!! And WHAT a subject!!!

  • georgieboy98 replied

    Very many thanks Lois. Kalbarri is a very picturesque area especially in spring, but you have to do some rough clambering over very uneven ground to get to the best photo locations! Peter
