My first attemt at painting a place just outside Coolah in New South Wales, Gotta Rock. I don’t know why it’s called Gotta Rock. I always seem to visit it on the way somewhere else and it always seems to be blazingly hot when I’m there. I’m sure Coolah is very nice but, much as I like Gotta rock, I’m not sure that’s a good enough reason to stay the night in Coolah. I am very keen to visit at the time of day portrayed in the painting (it’s amazing how often I have to image what a place must look like at sunset or in late afternoon light).

Just south of Broome, Western Australia is a place called Barn Hill. On the beach there are many rock fragments of different colours – some are striated mixtures of rock (- please see my photo ‘Turkish Delight’ for an example -) and others are just the one beautiful colour, like this piece.

Wikipedia: “The Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve contains formations of naturally rounded and oval boulders called Karlu Karlu by the local Aborigines. The area is located near Wauchope, 114km south of Tennant Creek in Australia’s Northern Territory … the boulders are suffering from solarisation. Because the temperature differences between day and night are so great, the rocks expand and shrink a little bit every 24 hours. This causes some rocks to crack, sometimes even splitting them in half.” [Wikipedia entry] / Copyright © 2007 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

click on feature button to see group — There isn’t one lot of ‘Devils Marbles’ on the site (Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve) ... there are hundreds! I tried a couple of different angles to show the different formations. Taken our road trip from Melbourne to Darwin via the Great Ocean Road and the red centre on my new DSLR (Nikon D90 – Tamron 17-50mm 2.8). — / Wikipedia has a good summary on the process of how the rocks were formed. Basically, they’re not separate rocks, but the result of millions of years of erosion (which also explains the texture on them). So, there aren’t just one set of Devils Marbles – but many! It’s really incredible! See my other Devils Marbles pic to contrast the differences… / (copied from my reply to a comment opposite) — Other shots of the Australian Landscape / click on images to view / — N.B. The feature logo was prepared by me but inspired by a design originally done by Natalie Perkins —

I thought I would upload something a little different. I used to do a bit of painting and this piece I did over a year ago. I look at it as a formation that will out last man no matter who may think owns it and the fact it was here long before man and will be here long after humankind vanishes.

From the EPA website: Broadwater is a great place for a day visit. It has covered picnic areas with gas and wood barbecues, picnic tables, toilets and cold showers. You can choose from short walks, swimming or birdwatching, or just relax and enjoy the peace and tranquillity that the forest has to offer. The sizeable open areas cater for large groups, making it a popular destination for school groups during the week.

The Barrier Ranges in far-western NSW, is a remote, harsh environment, that will now be the home to one of the world’s largest wind farms: the Silverton Wind Farm. With around 600 turbines proposed, the NSW Government approved Stage 1 of the project (around 300 turbines) in June 2009 which will provide enough power for 450,000 houses! The image is best viewed large, and doesnt really do this massive landscape justice!
