Pool of Bethesda North-north-west
Who needs the wide views when you can have this? Bethesda is always beautiful, and cold, misty mornings just make you more aware of the closer intricacies.

Infinity GorgeRibuck
Infinity Gorge lies just across the Chewings Range from the Redbank access road, and can be visited as a day trip that also takes in both ends of Redbank Gorge and the saddle of Mt Sonder. After a wet season, a delightful string of pools nestles between the glowing orange walls, interspersed with pleasant scrambles - but there's some prickly vegetation up on top.
The bright light of the Red Centre is conducive to taking photos with a phone, and this one was taken with a Samsung S10e.

Winter stream North-north-west
Follow any of the tracks climbing kooparoona niara and you'll spend at least a little time beside a creek or rivulet or baby river. During winter, the higher reaches invitably add frozen decorations.

Goanna Track Brian Eglinton
Stark reminders John Walker
The Chambers Pillar Historical Reserve sits on the edge of the Simpson Desert. The breakaway landforms are interspersed with sand dunes.
We had a delightful day exploring the various rock pillars and eroded structures. I particularly liked the untouched look of the sand dunes with the various animal tracks on them.

Foggy morning in the highlandsNorth-north-west
The last morning of a long ramble into the Walls and out again ticked off a lot of must-do items from the list. The sun came out eventually, but I could have happily gone all the way home with it like this.
