Stunning image…..............well done, inspiring.

Love the space in this!

we were there in 2006 on the night it filled up … 3 Inches of rain in a couple of hours trapping us so we had to drive the lake and claypans before it soaked in.
looks like you had much better weather and captured a fantastic image. shane

BigRed,this was 2005, and after doing the Madigan Line in 2006, we went there again and it was bone dry so we camped in the middle of it…must have rained after we left,lucky fore us,not so lucky for you:)
In 2005 no tracks were formed to the lake, we just drove cross country,but in 2006 our tracks had been followed so often that it looked like the track had been formed for years.
Awesome experience, neat to share it with someone else who knows:)

So calm and beautiful ! :-)

Looks calm there, Joe. Beautiful Australian scene.

Another good one

Magic, brilliant. Such magic colour and “feel” and good composition. A perfect image.

Well done. Love the foreground.

Excellent minimalistic composition and great colour tone

Beautiful place, beautiful photograph Joe. Well done for the effort, eye and enthusiasm to get out there and see this…

So perfect. Just beautiful Joe.

Thanks dean, we were told that Lake Caroline had been dry for 10 years, so I timing was goos too:-)

Perfect image.

This would be perfect in the group challenge I feel :)

Outstanding, well done on your feature

The desert is often a place lacking subtlety. Hot days, stark landscape, strong light. But here you’ve presented a gentle image … a soft image … an image of subtlety. You’ve shown me another side to a landscape I generally overlook.
