This panoramic view of Uluru and the distant Kata Tjuta was taken from a viewing platform sited to give a good sunrise view of them both - I'd have to admit somewhat after sunrise here! Best viewed large on black. Another week almost gone, so it's time to wish everyone a very Happy Fence Friday and I hope you all have a great weekend to follow.

Stitched panorama of the view from the lookout in the Jerrawangala National Park. Although the intensity of the fires varied depending on the ground slope and winds, almost the entire forested area in this image was burnt in the bushfires of late 2019 / early 2020. I have added a note to an area which appears more badly burnt. Needs to be viewed large.

Stitched panorama of a sunny day with a cold front coming up the coast. One to view large. HFF, stay safe and have a great weekend everyone.

The view from the Montague Island lighthouse. This stitched panorama looks north across the island and shows the two different types of geology - granite nearby and basalt on the more distant section. The tern colony (previous images) is visible on the adjacent rocky areas. Definitely one to view large. HFF and have a great weekend, everyone.

A very wide (180 degree) panorama of the Araluen Valley and its surrounds. When the bushrangers visited this area (see PiP/previous image), they retreated back into the hills in the centre. View large. HFF and have a great weekend. Explored.

Stitched panorama of the view from the lookout, across Coffs Harbour and the coast. One to view large.

Six stitched images (vertical format) were needed to make this (about 180 degree) panorama of the Milky Way. In the middle of the bow are the Magellanic Clouds, two small satellite galaxies. Out on the right, a little evening mist is beginning to cover the lights of the local town. One to view large, maybe while listening to this. Explored.

There were some spectacular sunsets during our stay in South Australia. A stitched panorama was needed to capture this one. Definitely best viewed large. Explored.

You just have to be impressed by the originality of place names like "Intermediate Hill" ! Either way, it's about half way along the island (it's the hill at the left of my previous image) and this is a stitched panorama of the view, covering about 180 degrees and the length of the island. It gives a good view of the lagoon and the coral barrier reef. The island is about 80% covered in natural forest. View large.

A merged panorama of the southern sky, images taken using the Astrotracer facility on the Pentax K-1. Some details in notes. This really does need to be viewed large on black. Explored. Here's a suitable musical link.

Merged evening panorama of Brisbane. Not much of a sunset, but the lights made up for it. It's some years since I visited the city and I can't get over how much the buildings have grown - the bridge and City Hall (now lost among the giants) were once the tallest. Best viewed large. Explored. Spread the news: www.ipernity.com/group/2260604/discuss/186760

The Australian Astronomical Observatory has a 3.9 metre mirror. It is a very substantial instrument (see the technician on the balcony doing maintenance) and needed a stitch of two images to fit it into this image.

The very newly completed Christchurch bus interchange. Panorama image, view large. Explored.

Stitched panorama on our former rural property, "Tiabunna" . Calving was timed for late winter, so the calves would be old enough to digest the new grass that began appearing in September. View large. HFF.

The road leading into Captains Flat winds past the old mine working area. Stitched panorama, best viewed large on black. Explored.

Better on black? Explored.

The Barrier Highway, linking Broken Hill to the coast, largely follows the railway line. Far out in nowhere is the tiny rail settlement of Mannahill - a welcome stopping point in the vastness. View on black.

The French antarctic base of Dumont d'Urville is situated on a series of rocky islands. There are thousands of nesting Adelie penguins in the surrounding area. This panorama was taken looking westward along the coast from near the station, which is to the right. The note has a larger version of the image. Use the 'satellite view' if looking at the location.
