Out of Africa by onewing

Out of Africa

Well not quite Africa, it is the east coast of Australia really at my favourite Birubi Beach about 15,000 km from the north coast of Africa. The sand, camels, pyramids (tank traps really) and dunes do give it a North African feel though.

It is so nice to see the camel rides back at Birubi as Covid restrictions ease.

A wonderful capture of this amazing place and scene.

What a thrill
September 5th, 2020  
What an exotic shot...and so well composed with all those pyramidic shapes leading to the camels, that in turn lead further in to whatever those other vertical lines are that lead even further in. Just a big wow!
September 5th, 2020  
Looks like they could be on their way to China with that yin and yang emblem on one pyramid. This is a fun shot- it really has an international feel to it- African desert, Egyptian pyramids and Australian beauty!

It is so nice to see the camels back at Birubi Beach again.

@casablanca I am sure the smiley face is watching.

@pcoulson I think it was about 10 am and this was the first ride of the day. Not many people there when I arrived, but by the time I was leaving a lot more cars were there so I guess the camels were kept busy all day.

@olivetreeann Indeed, we are very multicultural, ha ha.
September 6th, 2020  
I’m not the only one who likes your camels it seems.......
September 6th, 2020  
too cool fav
September 6th, 2020  
Great view and shot.
September 6th, 2020  
Love it! Beautiful landscape, bet you those camels were filled with people once upon a time.
September 7th, 2020  
@happypat Yes, I love the camels too they always have such gorgeous expressions on their faces.

@moviegal1 @pyrrhula Thanks it is so good to see the camels back at the beach

@sprphotos They will be filled with people even though we are in semi lockdown too. This was the first ride of the day, on a weekday too and not many people on the beach at that time. As I was leaving more people were arriving, so I would imagine the camels had a busy day ahead. They are a popular tourist attraction.
September 7th, 2020  
Wow! This is a as amazing shot.
September 7th, 2020  
Beautiful Babs! I checked to see if it was Stefano Trezzi’s picture from Abu Dhabi. I’ve never been to Australia and I’m afraid I’ll never will, so your picture has given me a glimpse into the unknown!
