A Long Way To Anywhere!
Uploaded: November 28, 2011
In October of 2009,I had the privilege to do the great Australian Outback drive to south West Queensland and South Australia.This sign on the edge of the town Thargomindah in west Queensland shows some of the distances people in remote areas of Aus. have to travel.At the time the temp was in the high 30's(100F) in a day long dust storm of high proportions as can be seen by the colour.

We caught the duststorm before this one Ian - a bit a uncomfortable but what an experience! A great find, beautifully presented. #1426425John Connolly November 29, 2011

Amazing, Ian! It's the kind of trek we'd like to make, but not on our own! Just love those outback names! #9846775Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
