Sunset on the Murray

Substantial escarpments follow the lower Murray River: and come to life at sunset. Stitched panorama. (Larger version in note).

Macquarie Island 1968: Hurd Point

12 Feb 2013 1 381
From an old slide. From a hundred or so metres up the side of the escarpment, on the climb out from Hurd Point at the south of Macquarie Island. Unfortunately it was winter, in the summer months those beaches are packed with one of the world's largest penguin colonies (nearly a million Royal Penguins). To give a scale, the tiny dots on the lower RHS near my ID are elephant seals, several metres long.
