More birthday trip pictures - Eucla Dunes

[dalekboy]

And eleven pics from the actual day of actual birthday under the cut...



A fresh emu print. Very clear and crisp, so I knew if I looked around...



Emu! I spent quite a bit of time idly wandering in a roundabout way that just happened to bring me this close without spooking them.









Dune crossroads



I love the way the wind has blown this bit of vegetation around to form the circular shape in the sand.



When I saw how sharp the edges of the track crossing the other one were, I decided to follow it. Had to scout through several clumps of grass and bush to refind the tracks before...






If I keep really still, the big weird thing won't know I'm here...






Me contemplating being 40... or trying to get a wanky pose right for the camera.

Wanky pose for 40 it might be, but your jawline looks gorgeous.

I know I've said this before but you have a special talent for the small scale photo - there's a richness to your inclose photos that I utterly adore.
