Kata Tjuta is queen, a photo from Northern Territory, West

Photographer's Note

This was my first time here and I was stunned. Kata Tjuta is also know as the Olgas, named after a European queen. The formations live up to that title.

They are made of round rocks cemented together, then eroded into these beautiful mounds by such force that all protruding rocks were snapped off at the surface. Then all the rocky debris washed clean away.

Then, as it aged, it rusted to this beautiful red.

The original photo was a little underexposed (I was trying to compensate for the strong light out there)
I hit the I'm feeling lucky button and this is the end result so I'm not sure what all the adjustments are.

Hello NIchola. Your picture is very nice. The colour of the soil and the landscape is quite breathtaking. Well composed image with good use of light and sharpness. The hills on the side create a nice v shape opening to the sky. Nice work.

Hi Nichola
I like the colours and composition here. How you scale the hills from right to left.
Good work, kind of underrated.
