Skies - Uluru to Darwin

Our last morning at Uluru and clouds filled the sky.  

On the flight from Uluru to Alice you fly over the salt lakes that form a formidable barrier when trekking east-west across this part of the interior. The first European to see Uluru was defeated by these salt lakes and had to return to the east coast from whence he came. The salt was laid down as Australia's inland sea evaporate as a result of the earth's changing climate a hundred millions of years ago.

 The martian landscape, formed  by river courses with no water.

 Back to the familiar.

Tanker sailing into the sunset.  Love this picture.
