Birdsville Pub 1 by terryliv

Birdsville Pub 1

Arguably, the most famous hotel in Australia. Don't know if other Oz 365ers would agree with me but I reckon that the Birdsville Hotel would be the most instantly recognised or the one that most people would be able to name.

I had to wait until the next morning to get a good shot of the pub. Too many fourbies parked out the from the previous night. I reckon they should ban parking out the front so us photographers could get a free shot at it. As I said fairly loudly back in the bar, "I didn't wait 70 years and drive 2,000 kms to take a photo of a bloody Landcruiser". Now that turned few heads. :-)

Haha.. I know your pain. But you must be far more dedicated than I just cant seem to get up early enough.

Actually it is the first time I've focussed on "the pub" . Previously I've only seen it surrounded by the crowds at the Birdsville races. Great to see it in all its glory.

Well done for getting a shot of the pub without any cars around. Did you have to shout that there was free beer down the road.

It really is amazing you got this shot without a single car or human out front.

Are you riling up the locals! Did you know that Malcolm Turner was there a few weeks ago, so you would have just missed him.

Sure is well known from many images. Perhaps not with the satellite dish though. :)
