The road to Simpsons Gap

The road to Simpsons Gap
Auf der Straße nach Simpsons Gap, eine der vielen sehenswerten Schluchten im West MacDonnell National Park in der Nähe von Alice Springs. Als wir am Besucherparkplatz ankamen, standen lediglich zwei weitere Fahrzeuge dort. Kein Reisebus und andere Touristen weit und breit zu sehen, herrlich!
Und es wurde noch besser: Nach einer Weile tauchte ein Ranger auf, der uns eine exklusive Führung anbot und uns u.a. auf Tiere hinwies, die wir sonst gar nicht wahrgenommen hätten, wie z.B. die gut getarnten Felskänguruhs.

On the road to Simpsons Gap, one of the many gorges worth seeing in the West MacDonnell National Park near Alice Springs. When we arrived at the visitor car park there were only two more vehicles. No coaches and other tourists to be seen anywhere, so we've had the gap all on our own for a while until a ranger arrived. He kindly offered us an exclusive tour and pointed out to animals that we wouldn't have noticed otherwise, like some well camouflaged rock wallabies. I often look back upon this great experience.

I love the POV with the directing line in angle with the gap between the rocky hills.

The landscape is really beautiful, but that new-looking tarmac road looks really out of place!

A very nicely taken photo though, with beautiful colours and light. I hate to say it, but the road does make a lovely leading line :-)
