Kangaroo Island - Part 3

At the far end of the island is Flinders Chase National Park. Often I don't research ahead what to expect so I can have surprises. This place gave me one - The Remarkable Rocks!

Wonder if they can't choose a better name.. anyway, it is truly remarkable! So it is appropriate at least. It is striking at first sight and fantastic for photo takings.
















Wonderful views from any perspective.
















These are hard rocks.. how long did nature take to sculpture into such forms!
































Keep marvel over how these formations come into being while walking amongst them.



































































































Lisa checking out photo shots of a more serious photographer (judging by the gear he carried).
















Putting together my panoramic shots... unfortunately it turn out as narrow strips here. You may double click to download for a better view.

























Are these broken down pieces of a 3D puzzle? Did a giant sledge hammer smash on it before weather wore it down? Just a layman's attempt to speculate at its formation.





Before leaving the island, we stopped by to check out the Little Sahara.
















Sand dune with foot trials suggest we do the same.. walking on sand is hard enough. May not seem that high but tiring to walk up to the top.
















Fragile vegetations at the dessert's edge.
















This 360 panorama shot could not capture the same sense of presence being there - only useful for recollection.



On the whole, I sum up this as a memorable and enjoyable trip. Though no whales sighted here, it was not a disappointment.

Putting on blog brings the trip back to life for me, rather than to leave photos in a forgotten folder!
