Outback Sunset

Sunset on Ninghan Station, Western Australia. The Australian outback is vast and electricity is not available in many areas. The water tank and a windmill are used on remote properties for pumping underground water to the surface.

  • WingsOfAngelz

    WingsOfAngelz

    Another GREAT Shot! It makes me think of the midwest (U.S.) the areas where the tornados love to call home.

  • Jan Fijolek replied

    I think this will be very similar. Vast empty almost desert area but with unique beauty ;)

  • WingsOfAngelz

    WingsOfAngelz

    It sounds exactly like the midwest, except it isn’t desert area. But the scene, the windmill, etc. fit it.

  • Jan Fijolek replied

    It is not desert yet, few hundred km further but area very isolated. Windmil and water tank are typical for Australian outback ;)

  • Edward Henzi

    Edward Henzi

    Great shillouette shot. Love the windmill and watertank against that golden sunset. Ed

  • Jan Fijolek replied

    Thank you Ed, lucky I guess that stayed a bit longer ;)

  • Santamaria

    Santamaria

    Great capture Jan..it reminds me of farms in South Africa

  • Jan Fijolek replied

    Thank you, looks like farmes in Australia, South Africa and US were using the same resources and technology ;))

  • Santamaria

    Santamaria

    Yes,come to think of it – are these ‘wind pompe’ to be seen anywhere outside the Colonies?

  • Jan Fijolek replied

    Maybe you right, too many similarities ;)

  • Cheri Bouvier

    Cheri Bouvier
