Photographer’s Note

Taken on a recent visit.

Please see my recent posts for further details and images.

From wikipedia.

Kata Tjuta, also known as Mount Olga (or colloquially as The Olgas), are a group of large domed rock formations located about 365 km southwest of Alice Springs, in the southern part of the Northern Territory, central Australia. Uluru, 25 km to the east and Kata Tjuta form the two major landmarks within the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.
The 36 domes, covering an area of 21.68 km², are composed of conglomerate, a sedimentary rock consisting of cobbles and boulders of varying rock types including granite and basalt, cemented by a matrix of sandstone. The highest point, Mount Olga, is 1066 m above sea level, or approximately 546 m above the surrounding plain (203 m higher than Uluru).

Hello Stephen,
A well composed view of the rock in clear colours and under a sculpted sky.

Hi Stephen,

This is a nice composition. You've got some great colours and there's great contrasts between the grasses, red rock, trees and that cloudy sky which all add up to make a nice image. I also like that you've used the clouds to hide the sun, providing nice highlights on the top of them and grey shadows underneath.

Cheers
Simon
