Having seen the sunrise over Ayers Rock we were taken on a coach tour around the rock stopping at this viewing place where you will see there is water available.
Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock.
It is a large sandstone rock formation in the southern part of the Northern Territory in central Australia. It lies 335 km south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs, 450 km by road.
Uluru is sacred to the Pitjantjatjara Anangu, the Aboriginal people of the area. Uluru is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

I'm back in Brisbane after 3 days in the Australian Desert. This was taken while do the 10km walk around the base of Uluru (Ayer's Rock). I found the light was really different there - more purple somehow. Needless to say, this is but a small taste of the shots I've amassed, but it's one of my current favorites.
