Twin Falls 2

Day 18 - Jabiru, Kakadu NP

A bit further on from Jim Jim Falls is Twin Falls. As far as I can work out, the creek is called Twin Falls Creek. That's a bit weird.

During the dry season, both falls slow to barely a trickle but in the wet season, it thunders over the escarpment. We were there at the start of the dry season.

The Bininj/Mungguy people who have lived with the changing Kakadu landscape for tens of thousands of years refer to the May-June period when we were there as Yegge. This is the cool weather time when the wetlands are carpeted with water lilies. Drying winds and flowering Darwin woolly butt tell Bininj/Mungguy to start burning the woodlands to 'clean the country' and encourage new growth for grazing animals.

The colours and clarity of all of the photos taken from the Cessna were badly effected by the old Perspex I was shooting through and required quite a bit of editing. So if the colours look a bit weird at times, it is because of my lack of editing skills.

These are special -- two of them. I thought you had purposely done some desaturation to make the falls stand out.
