Subject: [Leica] Finally some images and less talk

Good morning Alan,
thank you for the comments. I love travelling in the outback. My first 
experience with central Australia was in 1967. Tourism in central Australia 
has changed the entire nature of a visit, but the landscape itself has not 
changed. The one major difference that I did notice was the lack of wildlife 
around the rock. It seems that tourism has led to a degree of mismanagement 
of the landscape. Hopefully this will be corrected in the next few years as 
better development plans for the area are put in place.

Cheers
Alastair

Took me 2 weeks, but here are some images from Central Australia: who says 
digital is fast: 2 weeks was always about average

These are stunning!  And I'm not usually a big fan of arid landscape 
pictures.
Thanks so much for opening my eyes, so to speak.  ;~)
