Glowering grey skies gathering over the van at a rest stop on our way to Alice Springs.

A clothes rack set up in my van, full of still wet washing from yesterday.

Yesterday's threatening skies approaching #AliceSprings delivered, and this morning, the van looks like a mobile laundry. 🌧 #van #vanlife #uluru #roadtrip #centralaustralia #nt #northernterritory

A breathtaking astrophotography image captures the Milky Way Galaxy rising over Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Central Australia. The main image shows the wide-angle view of the celestial scene, while an inset highlights a brilliant fireball meteor streaking across the sky, caught by chance during a series of exposures. The meteor's trail is clearly visible through cloud banks near Uluru.

Temps are rising and #CentralAustralia is feeling the worst of it. Include higher health inequality, lack of water, and poor housing and increasing heat emergencies are reaching crisis levels.

A young dingo at the perennial spring #watarrkanationalpark#kingscanyon #centralaustralia

Not an upside down waterfall but the reflection of the waterfall that appeared on the perennial rockhole camera after a major rainfall event. Reconyx cameras can survive a short dunking-hopefully this is the case here #watarrkanationalpark #kingscanyon #centralaustralia

During the warmer months a perentie (the largest Oz lizard species) appears almost daily on the ephemeral stream camera trap walking along the dry stream bed #watarrkanationalpark #kingscanyon #centralaustralia

Young dingoes often appear on the Watarrka waterhole cameras at this time of year. The white tips on their tails may make them easier to recognise next year #watarrkanationalpark #kingscanyon #centralaustralia

A dingo not far from its den at the perennial rockhole #WatarrkaNP #KingsCanyon #CentralAustralia

An exciting pic! This is the first time in over a decade of camera trap records from remote Watarrka NP waterholes that a warru, aka black-footed rock wallaby, has appeared on camera with a joey.

Looking at some old photos and wow, central #Australia is too photogenic. Kata Tjuta, a Mutitjulu water hole sunset and, of course Uluru. January 2017. It was hot but travelling off season meant a lot of places we had to ourselves.
