Lightening Ridge and the trip there.








 Inside the camp huts.


 The above shosws an eagle on the prowl wing span is about eight feet.
 Lawyer bush grabs the tea towel and won't let it go, If forced it 's barbs break off and this is the way the seeds are spread. Why the name lawyer bush? Get divorsed and see how they grab your money.

 The photo above and below show the band aid bush the sap is great for skin cuts and rashes and the like. They are a parasite plant and will live on anything organic.








 Amego's castle

 Below is the astronomers hut. He was working on propane gas fitting and garden hose when it blew him into the stratosphere


 Blues dog
 Blue's place I don't know why they call him bluey his dog is a red not a blue and his hair is black and his ute is white!



 The above shows the camp where we stayed.
 The above and the next photos show a storm that lasted five minutes dumping 2" water into the tanks.
 High winds just before the rain. Flying debris would take your head off . I was behind one of the sheds when it hit.
 Then the rain.
 The bush to the left is a leopard bush.
 Note the water on the ground.
 The storm passes. I don't know what the brown spot is on the right of the photo,it didn't show up on the next one or the previous one...








 The next three photos show the sunset after the storm.





 The above shows burn off below is the same in time lapse held in hand.







 Hope you enjoyed Iggle....
